hey ksa welcome,
for your bulking diet there is a bunch of stuff in the nutrition section of the forum for you to look at, and someone will hit you up before long with some good advice for your diet, as far as your training routine, what type of exercises are you planing on doing for the various body parts?

hey mike thanks for the info.

chest: dumble press, inclines, declines and peck fly. i use all dumbles because im affraid of not being symetrical haha.
back: lat pull down with a wide grip. lat pull down with close grip and palms facing inward. and also dumbell rows. im still trying to figure out something for lower back.
legs: leg press, leg extensions: one for quad and one for hamstrings, individual lunges with weights, and then i finish with calves.
shoulders: military press with dumbells, lateral raises and the front raises. and then finish with shrugs
biceps: standing curls, incline bench curls, hammer curls and reverse curls.
tricep: pushdown, skull crushers, reverse pushdowns, still trying to find one more.
let me know if i should change anything..thanks guys

well don't be afraid to use a machine bro, the dumbbells also work your stabilizer muscles, the machines don't affect your symmetrical shape, its what exercises you do and your diet + genetics that determine that, here is a link for your various body parts and exercises, looks like you have a good understanding as to how to train,so this link will be a refresher and also may give you some idea`s on some different lifts.

let me know what you think, good luck bro
