Just introducing myself to the ausbb community. Been looking at some of the forum for a bit and thought id join up.

A little intro to myself, only been training hard out for 3 months but I have seen some great gains. I've done a shitload of research and came up with a good training regime which fits quite well into my lifestyle.

I have always been quite skinny, low body fat %, but I am able to put muscle on at quite a quick rate. I am naturally lean.
When I started I weighed in at around 66kg now I weigh 74kg and am approx 175cm tall

I am in the defence force so it is quite hard to get a perfect regime with the hours i work but I feel I have done the best i can with this regime (bear in mind im only a beginner):

• 17:00 – Gym
• During Workout - Powerade
• 18:30 – Max's Protein Shake
• 19:30 - Meat, Rice, Veggies and Fish Oil
• 21:00 - Bed

The only things I drink are water, powerade and green tea.
I try to consume the most amount of water during the day as I can


Things I am aware of:
  • not the best snacks but they are easy to consume and they are a source of nutrients.
  • I need a "rest" day during the working week but I can't workout on the weekends at the moment so yeah :( !

Any help/constructive criticism would be greatly appreciated

Thanks in advance.

What do you use for squats ? Just a freeweight barbell ?
