I am getting ready to start a weight lifting program, to a) increase my strength and b) get my self back in shape.
I am 5'11, 145 lbs, and high metabolism...and want to put some mass on. I have been told to a) increase my protein intake b) increase my calories and c) eat 5 small meals a day.
Is this the right approach to take? Any suggestions on cheap / everyday foods that I can incorporate into my diet? I am eating chicken pretty much every night for dinner.
I would like to be 160-170lb. I've weighed 145 since high school, and it is because of my makeup. I can go eat a whole steak at Outback, and not put anything on =(

2)1.5 grams of protien per pound of body weight
3)take in healthy fats like olive oil and flax oil
4)read up on creatine and other stuff like weight lifting and eating the right food
5)times your bodyweight by 21 or 22 for calories needed everyday
6)drink a gallon of milk everyday
7)sLeep for about 8 hours
8)drink a gallon of water a day
9)train hard
10)3 grams of carbs per pound of body weight
each meal should be around 500 calories
hope this helps

I fight because I know this world is cold,cold place I've been let down stepped on, passed up,and F' D over I fight because I know that in this world, the one perosn you can rely on is yourself wives cheat,family abandons and friends sell you out. When I.m that cage it me versus the world True I might get beaten but I won't be a deceiver. IN the cage I find truth, It is only throught truth that we can find ourselves.
Limits are only for those that set them . If you have the will power you can accomplish all your goals. Each journey begins with a step.
I/m not scared i not afraid I am tough I/m a animal and i will eat you if i have too
