    Hello,

    2 questions :

    1)Do you count the protein of typical carb products(rice, noodle, oats) into your macros?

    2) I literally cant gain more weight.. Been lifting before.. Plyos and Heavy BB Lifts (the classics) to gain weight ... In the last 14 years i gained 80pounds of lean mass. Obviously from year to year less.

    Genetically I'm mesomorph. gaining or losing was always piece of cake but im stuck.
    Boxer by heart. Will be always my 1st love. Following Rips Advice (during pandamic) i focused on 6month ss block training and minimized boxing to a minimum(light roadwork, light shadowboxing)

    my stats

    31
    6'6
    240lbs
    9-10% bf

    bench 5x275 *awful bencher(i know)
    press 5x 220
    squat 5x440
    dl 5x600


    my diet.. thoughts ?

    125g wildsalmon

    Yes count everything. I would up that fat to that 150-200 range. Start loading up on fish, avocados, nuts etc.
