    Not exactly sure how to get what I want..

    I've been working out on and off for a few years. Gaining and losing weight the whole time until I've pretty much reached my median.

    I'm 6' tall, 193lbs and in generally good shape. I don't know my BF%, but I would guess it's between 14-18 range :/

    I'm wanting to cut my body fat, but not look skinny. I want to bulk up, but still be able to run 3-5 miles at a relatively good pace (8 min mile or less). I've thought about circuit training, but will that make me lose too much weight? I want to mix cardio with bulk weight lifting. What's the best way to do that?

    Here's what I'm thinking, please give your thoughts:

    Sun - Rest
    Mon - 2 Mile run in morning, Arms (bi, tri, forearm) and Abs in the evening
    Tue - Back (upper, lower), Traps, Back of shoulders
    Wed - 2 mile run in morning, Chest, Abs, Front shoulders
    Thu - Side shoulders, traps
    Fri - 2 mile run in morn, Abs, Legs
    Sat - Whatever I did on monday (besides run)

    Then the following week, everything will loop but be a day before. Example: back on monday, chest on tuesday, etc. On saturdays I'll do whatever I did on monday. I'll run and do abs on mon-wed-fri.

    What do you think?

    my suggestion

    Hi mate;
    First thing - it is not very simple to bulk up if you still want to run a lot and stay in perfect shape. But it is possible.
    Cardio (running) at the morning? - perfect idea - do not change it. You can add some abbs at the morning - instead doing them at the eveing. Do not eat enything within 45-60min after your morning sessions.
    3 cardio and abbs session a week - is enough
    Weight training:
    First thing - try to have fixed week breakdown.(easier to control and better organized) You need to also remember about your resting. If you want to get bulk - you need to give your muscles some days to recover. You are very active - which is perfect for you fitness and cardio - but you are bit too active for bulking.
    My suggestion - do not break shoulders down to 3 training - have them trained on one session. Do not train shoulders day after chest. Do not train legs - same day when you run. Break your weight training down by 4 separate session. MON/TUE THURS/FRI - do your cardio and abbs MON/THURS/SAT and have 2 proper days of resting WED and SUN. You should be ok Do not forget about diet!!!

    Take care and stay steady

    I like your idea about splitting up the days. A 4 day split would be good I think. The reason I still need to be running is because I am in the Army (infantry at that). So running is very important. I just got back from Afghanistan about 2 weeks ago so the past year hasn't been perfect with diet and gym time, but I did the best I could.

    Any supplement suggestions? I currently use:

    Nitro-tech Protein
    Anabolid Halo (post workout)
    Hydroxycut
    Cell-tech (although I've not started taking it yet.. I only have it in my possession).

    Suggestions?
