mid morning 6oz. tuna 1 serving oatmeal diet dew
lunch 8 oz. ground beef 3 cups green beans
pre workout 25g whey 5g creatine
post workout same
dinner chili 2 hotdogs! no bun ;D 25g whey tortilla chips

Generally speaking I agree Randy, but I don't want to "bulk"up this winter and then turn around and have to diet super hard all summer!
I believe that I've been over training and not taking in enough post workout carbs. So my game plan as of this week is to scale back my workout and make sure that I take in quality carbs in the post workout 3hr. window.
My thinking is that nutrition is even more important than ever if your going to gain muscle and stay lean.

Why? the different reps than you are used to or just too many sets? Intensity?

Randy, really I just think the volume of training that I've been doing is just too much. I know it dosn't seem like a lot by most peoples standards but I guess you could say that after a lifetime of training I'm in touch with how much that I can benifit from.
Tell tail signs of overtraining for me are getting weaker and loss of appitite. I guess you could say that I am a "hard gainer" though I might not look like it now its taken me many years to get where I am! Such as it is!
When I was young I learned quickly that I gained much better on short intense workouts using as heavy weight as possible. Thats why Mike Mentzer was my bodybuilding idol thoughout my teenage years. I strayed from those type of workouts during my late twentys until Dorian came along and reminded me of the old hardcore workouts that I had done when I made my best gains!

So, whats the plan going to be?

Randy, thats easy! I'm just going back to what works well for me, heavy low volume training on basic exercises! After all I'm not trying to reinvent the wheel here. I'm too old and set in my ways for that!
