A couple of years ago I was doing 1 hour full body routine m-w-f and one
hour cardio (treadmill) on t-t-s, and roughly following the HST routines
based on my 5 rep max for the m-w-f workouts. After 5 months of this
there was minimal noticeable mass gain, my weight was down about 10 lbs
and bf was noticeably reduced. I was eating at slightly more than
maintenance at the time. Beginning to think I am an "ectomorph", (is
that the right term for hard gainer?)
Been reading a bit on this and by some's opinions I may have been
"overtraining" if my goal was to gain mass.
Since my main goal is to add some mass and worry about bf later, I am
thinking about starting again with short, heavy workouts on saturdays
and wednesdays, or something like that, keeping them to twice weekly.
Also keeping the cardio to twice weekly, or maybe none at all. I'm not a
big eater and find it hard to eat all day to get above maintenance.
