New here

Hi guys,
 
Just a introduction; Im 19 been training since january. Taking time back to august 2008 before this time i was a very competative rollerblader and in augest i rupturd my utherithal tube (the gooch) skating. I was told if i continue rollerbladin it would be a huge risk of doing this again and next time it will be perminant damage.
 
So from Augest 2008 to the begining of december 2008 i had a huge recovery where I was unable to walk to well i couldnt do any form of cardio i gained fat i was around 10.5 stone no fat at all and went up to 11 stone in fat, felt soo unfit considering i used to do alot of cardio and it was my main goals to keep trim for skating.
 
In January I met an old freind at the gym I was working at and he had become abit overweight (wont go into details its personal) we started to work out together and we'd hit the weights as he knew alot more about weights than me and we got a nice lil 4 day routine going in the week. We still train together and push eachother and are now best mates which is awsome.
 
This year in augest i had a big set back i was getting problems with me down below from the injury last year, so i had to have surgery and I was out of weights for 3 weeks and had to start off lifting light but all seems fine I lost a couple of pounds of muscle because me eating wasnt exactly on the spot because it was difficult to do everything for myself but its all great now.
 
I was just looking for some more extra info on training iv read alot of good articles on this website and been using a few other forums.

Hi and welcome to MT

Diet is medicore, but you need to make sure the lunch is a good quality meal.  Leave the fry up.  make sure your bread is granary bread and you need to add a lot mroe fruit and veg

Your training split looks fine - just make sure you're training hard

ok cool thanks, yee me bread is normally brown. I have the fry up on saturday as a cheat? thought that would be ok.

Training is 100% intense normally feel it for a day or 2 somtimes 3 on legs

Brown bread is not good enough - Granary is the one with bits in:

One fry up treat a week is fine mate - enjoy it
