Dude if I ate like that it would wreck my gut/digestive system. Not to mention those are all shit sources of food. I don't want to eat processed garbage, just want easily digestable natural foods. My diet is simple:
1- 10 egg whites / 1.5 cup of white rice soy sauce
train
Post workout  1 scoop EAA's and  a few glucose tabs
2- 10oz chicken / 10oz sweet potato
3- 8oz ground sirloin / 10oz sweet potato
4- 10 egg whites / 1.5 cup of white rice soy sauce
train
EAA's / glucose tabs
5- 10oz ground turkey / 10oz sweet potato
6- 6oz salmon/ 1 avocado / handful of Macadamia nuts

Its around 400 carbs, 300 protein, 75-100 fat

Go4It, do you ever schedule in a "cheat" meal?  Take a time out from typical bodybuilding fare and maybe eat some pizza or pasta...like going back to your roots?  Or perhaps go to town on some dessert?  Do you get any non-healthy food cravings?

Usually if I cheat it's alcohol. But food wise it will be something like Mexican food like a huge burrito with tons of meat/rice/guacamole, maybe Ihop pancakes or waffles, or cereal I'll take down a box of something throw in some protein powder and add a few bananas. But I'm not a huge pizza guy or ice cream, mainly because I'm lactose intolerant, although delicious It's just not worth the digestive issues I get from it and I'll have serious room clearing gas for like 2 days.

Shoulders look a little pointy.  Something's off.  Site enhancement?

[FREAKgeek]

Can we all agree on this now?  If you aren't on a lot of drugs, bulking is one of the worst things you can do.  If it's your first year of training you can be a little relaxed on what you eat as you will put on 10-15 pounds of muscle.  After that, there is no reason to eat more than a 5-10% calorie surplus.  Every time you go on youtube you see these fake natties talking about bulking and their "off season" diet.  What it's become is the lazy narcissistic mentality of the fitness community justifying over eating, complacency and food wasting.

What's your opinion and or experiences with bulking?

Like others have said, you need a little more to grow, but beyond that excess is excess.

Bulking might be a terrible idea if you are natural and a bodybuilder, I can think of many other weight lifting scenarios where this is not the case.
The easiest way to put some pounds on your bench is to put some pounds on your frame, irrespective of whether it's in vogue or not.

Completely agree.

Um, no.

Blakely told me that for the lighter guys, 220 and under it's best to be as lean as possible, like 6-8%

not sure if he'd agree with 4%?

i can get there and stay there comfortably no extra effort and i feel good and strong that ripped

Problem with being 6-7% is your just asking for an injury if your training heavy.

Agreed.
10-15% (minimum) is ideal for powerlifting.

a fit look is ALWAYS more appealing than a bulk. No one gives a shit about bulked guys...they are out of shape, fat! Even a fotballplayer look better than a bulked gay, even a tennis player...the only "girls" who like bulked guys are 35+ overweight singel moms so they dosent feel like big piggs standing beside their men...

And if your natural u will just look like shit when over 10%...bcz the fat will not place well if your a natural and 30+ age It may look ok if your go up to 30-40% then u become round at least...big hard belly, thats ok, but loose fat is the worst thing a man ever can have

i know you are from OZ so are you tapping this fellow vegan? 

I don't see image, can't comment 

[chuckles]

Um, no.

maybe not but you are just turning this whole thread into a Go 4 It thread.

You gotta admit one thing Go4it is transparent,  posting photos and videos documenting his bulk. Big props on actually showing some lifting footage. Is he natural? Highly unlikely,  but who really gives a shit, it's bodybuilding.

he's natty/semi natty. go4it is 37 but still pretty and with a full head of luscious hair (no homo), so either he has bulletproof genetics or he's on semi-natty doses max.

Dude if I had to eat like that I would give up, 10 egg whites and white rice for breakfast???

the rest totally tasteless, I might manage that for a week before stepping onstage but offseason, not in a million years.

I admire your commitment...
