Just signed up to soak in any new knowledge possible. I'm 36 and been lifting inconstantly since i was 17. I've really stepped my game up the last 2 years and have been hitting the gym heavy 4-5 days per week (not a lot of cardio, wont lie). 2 years ago i was 253lbs of lard and now i'm down to 205 (6 feet) granted i'm not that lean, probably about 18% bodyfat, been that way for about 7 months now. I'm trying to lean bulk my way up to 225-235 but it feels like it's impossible. I don't **** around in the gym, i get it done. I've watched and read up on just about everything i could think of. The biggest thing holding me back is really just perfecting my diet and not giving in to temptation so often. I mean i wanna get huge and don't really need to be super lean, and doing that off of chicken/eggs/rice is torture and i don't see how i could eat this way my entire life. Anyway, i look forward to following the forums and hopefully finding a lot of useful knowledge here. Thanks for all the future help!
