I've not tried it to be honest - if you get some let us know how you get on. I'm on Oats - Ultra fine scottish oats - Carbohydrates | myprotein.co.uk - as they contain Fat, Protein and Carbs as well as Fibre Some of the competition lads are on Vitargo or Waxy Maize Starch. |

Get posting your diet and weight sessions on a regular basis mate - theres alot of people who can help you on this site. When you say you are plateauing - what exercises can't you gain on? |

I understand that the gains I made previously were n00bie gains, and I expected for the rate of gain to slow. But as far as I can see its stopped altogether.. |

| Illuminati | have you tried backing off all exercises except squats and deads mate? i`m guessing you need to up cals slightly too,but i am convinced less volume will help ______________________ einsteins mind was the key to all things...to understand more than to know. www.englishmuscle.co.uk www.extremenutrition.co.uk |

Cal, why do you suggest just sticking with squats and deads? |

Your squats should be better than your bench as its a bigger muscle. Thats prob the reason why you have hit a plateau. Squats and Deads are the most anabolic of all the exercises as they hit about 70% of all the muscle fibres in the body. 190lbs...? Thats about 13st and a half stone... How tall are you mate...? About 5ft 8? If thats the case you've got an ideal frame to work with IMHO. Get eating and get squatting |
