the hardcore bulk has begun
 

Tomorrow will be the start of my new bulk, there's no worries about how much fat gain just to get big QUICK!

My split looks like this:

Day 1: Chest/Abs
Day 2: Quads/Hammstrings/Glutes/Calves
Day 3: Shoulders/Traps
Day 4: Back/Abs
Day 5: Chest/Triceps
Day 6: Biceps/Forearms/Calves (cardio early morning)
Day 7: Rest

The diet looks pretty dirty, just because it's very hard for me to gain weight no matter what I do... 4000 calories and I'm dropping bodyfat. So it's time to conquer this, my diet plan is like this

The diet is definately going to take time to get used to, 2 cups of oatmeal is WAY more than I thought.. some force feeding involved here, but I guess this is what it's gonna take

**** bro, I usually go with 1 cup at a time and that is plenty, gotta do what ya gotta do though. Got one observation for you, though: why not switch up your protein sources a bit more? Maybe throw in some eggs/whites and cycle some fish in there. Good to mix it up.

BTW, impressive weight on the deads. Keep it up!
