Help while training.

I am 14, I weight 142 LBS. 5'9"

All I need help with is figuring oput what foods to buy and how much of it too eat. I workout roughly 3 times a week and I am starting to workout with a couple dumbbells I just bought evry night. Tnx in advance for all your help.

Let me know if you have any questions. You basically have to just buy the foods and see how fast you go through them. From there you can kinda keep track of how long each food lasts you.

What exercises are you performing with the dumbbells?

I assume you're looking to bulk? Correct me if I'm wrong, it's an assumption.
-Here should be your macro nutrient intake:
Protein: 138-150g
Carbs: 340-390g
Calories: 3300-3800
Fat: 60-110g

What is your current diet looking like also? Experience?

^^^Freak, beat me to it! lol. If my post helped, great. But the link Freak gave covered it.

He's 134lbs KM he will be adding too much fat (adipose tissue) with those macros.

We have him taken care of! High five!

KM · 02-11-2008, 11:54 PM

Isn't he 142 lbs...

High five! lol.

Ok, 142 still way too many calories imo.

I just tried to give him something in between ya know.

What would be the appropriate macros in your opinion Freak?

I would get his baseline intake right now - take his dietary intake for 3-5 days - take the avg. Increase by 500 calories, 1g/lb protein, 60% carbs, the rest fat. - approx. I lay everything out in the primer.
