    Hello All,
    I finished reading “Starting Strength” and from it I created a diet, workout, and supplement plan. Can the members here review what I’ve put together and get me some constructive criticism. I’d really appreciate. Thanks.

    WEIGHT: 151
    HEIGHT: 5’8
    BF%: 15%

    GOAL: To bulk up, adding 25-30 pounds of muscle mass to my frame.

    DIET:
    Calories: 3963
    Fat: 135
    Carbs: 289
    Protein: 287

    WORKOUT:
    Workouts A and B alternate on 3 non-consecutive days per week.
    Workout A
    3x5 Squat
    3x5 Bench Press
    1x5 Deadlift

    There's nothing to really critique: you're on the SS forum doing SS.

    Calories seem good for someone your size (though it's a little high in carbs for my liking).

    I wouldn't recommend eating so little, obviously you need at least 3968 calories to get big.
