    College kid trying to gain mass and KEEP it.

    Hey guys, I'm new to the BodyBuilding forum and I was just looking to get some tips and motivation. I know this may sound like an excuse (might be one too...) but it is really hard to keep myself motivated along with all the school work that I have. I workout 6 times a day at a pretty high intensity (at least I think so). However, my nutrition is not too good most of the time. First of all, my schedule makes it hard for me to eat 5-6 smaller meals a day, so I usually just get 3 meals at the dining hall (chicken breast, with a little whole wheat bread, and greens) along with my daily casein protein shake and whey after workouts. Seems like a pretty decent diet, except for the fact that I do order late at night, and even though I get grilled chicken wraps, I do feel guilty after eating. Since my eating is only limited to 3 decent meals a day, does anybody have some suggestions on how for me to keep my body fueled with high protein meals. ALSO, what do you guys do when you feel ****ty after eating high fat, carb foods and do not workout. Thanks!

    - Im assuming that you meant to put PER WEEK, if your working out that much daily. Your just killing yourself
    - @ Your question, about eating high carb/fat foods. Just think of it as the fuel for your muscles, without it you will not grow.

    You don't need to work out 6 times a week. For a beginner, 3 times is plenty. I just started a blog yesterday and wrote up an article on a good beginner routine. Check it out in my sig.

    As for your diet, you don't need to eat 5-6 small meals. 3 meals is perfectly fine as long as you are getting enough calories.

    Motivation is up to you though. Let me just say that you look a lot better than me when I started.
