You are talking about keeping a log on what you are eating. The easiest way i found to do this was by getting an app on my iPhone. Its called ShapeUp and is free. You should check it out and maybe show it in a video how smart it is.
@dynatae It varies from person to person, some people see results in as little as a week's time (strength), while some gains (muscle growth) can take months. Just be consistent and stay the course and you'll see gains.
@CampbellFitness I can see the gains in strength, just wondering why my weight went down but my lifting increased? lol... was shocked to tell you the truth...lol, thanks for the insight! Stay Big!
i have a solid workout routine, i go to the gym 4-5 times a week, i lift heavy (when i say heavy, im in beast mode!) , i do all the compound exercises in the proper form as much as possible, i supplement on whey protein (for now, cause i'm still studying and i dont have the budget to buy my necessary supp. nids) my diet is a lil bit off, but i try to eat clean as much as possble, ive been workin out for almost 7 months now but still no/ little gains, sumtyms i wndr if i shud go on, or just quit.
@CampbellFitness i try to get in as much as 2000-2500 calories a day, but, its made up mainly of carbs and protein, but still, i try to incorporate as many veggies as i can. T-TH-S-S is my workout day, tues. & sun. these are my leg day squats, leg press, etc. pyramid set (after legs i do military shoulder press w/ a lil bit of bi's and tri's) thurs. is my chest day, flat, inclined, declined, flys, etc. pyramid set (bi's to finish) sat. would be back deadlifts, latpulls, (tri's to finish)
@xXMcGwaPauLXx Based off those stats you need to eat 2500 calories a day just to stay the same weight you are now. If you want to grow your body you'll have to take in more calories (I'd suggest starting at about 2800 per day). I think between the nutrition being off and not having an optimal split, those are probably the main reasons you're not seeing the results you've wanted.
@CampbellFitness that's cause, like i said, i'm still studying, and i go home on MWF, at around 8:30 pm, the gym closes at 9:30. i try to make the most out of the days which i can go home early, but i am planning on working out in the morning though, cause lucky for me my class is in the afternoon. will working out in the morning be as good as working out at night? also, what program would you suggest? every reply counts and would be of great help.
@xXMcGwaPauLXx If you can only do those 4 days you have a few options. You could do a push/pull split where you hit everything twice a week, so something like this:
@xXMcGwaPauLXx That looks better. Is there a reason you've giving legs 2 days and not your other body parts? I don't have a problem with doing that as long as you're seeing size or strength gains, just curious.
@CampbellFitness because for me, the most neglected body part that most people train / not train are legs, and you said so in your video that most of the guys hit other body parts twice a week but give legs only every other week to be trained, so i said to myself that maybe i am right in training my legs twice a week. and also, they say that if U hav propr trained legs, you'll be able to stabilize and handle a much heavier weight thus making u "stronger" w/c i am experiencing right now. :))
@CampbellFitness thanks for all the help man, really meant a lot. but you haven't answered my question yet,.. "WILL WORKING OUT IN THE MORNING BE JUST THE SAME AS WORKING OUT AT NIGHT?"
@xXMcGwaPauLXx Sorry, I must have missed that question in between your other ones. To me, it just depends on what you prefer. I like working out in the mornings better when I can, but then again I consider myself to be a morning person. I like the fact that the gym is emptier and I can put all my energy into my workout. I find that working out later in the day is tougher b/c the gym is more crowded and sometimes I'm not as motivated b/c I've worked a whole day.
@CampbellFitness no harm done man. again. thanks for all the info. i'll keep on asking questions in the future and i'll keep you updated on my progress. thanks again. :)
@BC2Recon I have a video on keeping them that I linked, it's hard to show it in detail as it's on paper and not on a spreadsheet. But if you follow me on BB.com I usually keep my logs on there too.
Nice video again. Hey what is your opinion on cheat days/meals? How often do you take these when bulking/cutting? Never heard opinion on this from you.
@TheBlackFrieza I don't really believe in cheat meals. You can eat pretty much whatever you want in my opinion as long as you're hitting your goal carbs/proteins/fats.
@lambo5277 It depends. I hit legs twice a week. One day is with lower reps, the other day is with higher reps. People respond to different things. Try both ways and see what works for you. This is where a log really helps, b/c you can track process.
i have knee problem with my one leg. so i can't do squat. what is your suggestion i do as compound movement to replace the squat? (i know squat is irreplaceable, but what else can give me closer workout)?
@mriduldb You could do leg press, as it might help your knee out some. The squat is hard to replace, but be smart about what you can and can't do. You don't want to risk injury either.
@CampbellFitness I read that counting calories can cause stress. And that stress will mess up the diet plan cause the bodys stressed so the digestive system wont work right. And the result will be either your diets a waste or something else. Whats your opinion. I read this on MensHealth Magazine.
@yoshioi It doesn't stress me out at all. I use sites that help me track them, so it's really easy. It would stress me out if I didn't track them. The reason being is I have a specific goal and I know in order to reach that goal I need to make sure I'm eating right.
I like Men's Health and all, but I wouldn't really rely on it for the best info.
@CampbellFitness i know its fucking impossible to pack 30 pounds of muscle a year being natural, but how about 15 pounds. Eating 7 times a day etc like the pros do u think its possible????. I like ur videos man keep it up!.
a log is definitely the most under used tool , i see alot of people just winging it daily. I use Jefit pro on my android phone also available on iphone ,pretty basic to use and can be backed up on their website. Great alternative to the pen and notebook.
awesome video Campbell!! Hey man, can you add me on bodyspace? kyanangelo :) Also, can you do a video on running? cardio? I'm trying to lose my last layer of body fat, and I dont have membership to the gym for another 3 weeks due to school.. Thanks Campbell!
i hate when people tell me that they put on some crazy amount of muscle in a couple months......ive been working out consistently for a year with a flawless diet...i was 6 foot and 145 now im 185 and can still see all my abs and am still lean(the only perk to being ectomorph)....not sure how much mucsle i put on..haha but it sure isnt 40lbs ..people dont like to take into consideration water fat and glycogen....
@CampbellFitness haha u described my friend when u said about goin gym n doin bench press curls n triceps. he was sittin nxt to me when u said it too :L
jst wanted to knw if i need more than 48 hrs recovery from a body,part, is it different depending on ur age? . im 17??? 1 yr training exp:)
@AdR1aN43 It still can depend on the total sets you do. Routine looks a little funky to me. But the main question is are you seeing increases in strength or size? If the answer is yes, then stick with it. If the answer is no, I'd suggest getting a better routine in place.
Honestly my carbs are minimal just the little I get here and there from veggies .. that's it .. my height is 6' 1" n weight 219 .. proteins 200-300 .... 100 from two shakes and the rest from solid foods like chicken,, fish,, beef .. mainly chicken ... and fats are minimal as well just the little I get from peanut butter or peanuts and that's only 2 tablespoons ..
@curry33343 I wouldn't suggest going too low carb and low fat. Try upping one or the other a little bit. Drop your protein intake some in order to fit them and maintain your caloric intake. Do this for 2 weeks or so and see how it effects your weight.
@curry33343 Going keto is not very good, up your carbs and fat! Here is my macros for the day, 200p/315cho/75f...this is cutting also! When I'm bulking it's more like this 250p/500cho/90f, people are scared of cho, and they def shouldnt be!
Honestly my carbs are minimal just the little I get here and there from veggies .. that's it .. my height is 6' 1" n weight 219 .. proteins 200-300 .... 100 from two shakes and the rest from solid foods like chicken,, fish,, beef .. mainly chicken ... and fats are minimal as well just the little I get from peanut butter or peanuts .. and that's only 2 tablespoons!
Sup Brandon ... have a question ... I'm still trying to loose the remaining amount of fat ... to me I stay away from carbs nd my caloric totals are around where they need to be for my height n weight to loose 1700-1800* ... I stay away from carbs just clean chicken, tuna, meats n veggies.. my question is do you think low carbs is the answer to burn n build muscle or should I supplement the good ones in?? Thanx hit me back when u can I know your a busy man .. thanx again good day
y had a little break from diet(2 days) :)) (my diet is preety boring if y make it too big y will not keep up with it) now another 4 months of solid meal planning:d
@MadeOfAdamantium You can do your usual split but I'd highly suggest going extremely light for the duration of the workout. You want to reintroduce your body to stress. If you just jump right in you risk getting injured or being unnecessarily sore after. Glad to hear you're able to get back into it though!
I think most people make this mistake, especially if they are just starting out. Consistency is key to gaining muscle, or loosing fat. The reason you grow is because your body adapts to the new stress imposed upon it, but if you only put it under stress now and then, in between the times of stress your body will learn it can "slack off" and you won't see any real gains. Good video as always bro. I really like this series I have learned a lot!
for the fitness journal link you put it in the worst spot possible, you put it right next to the play button, so whenever you put your mouse there the whole bottom tab thing automatically comes up and blocks it.
That was funny... I think you surprised yourself after saying the S word in your kinda rant...it just kinda came out....lol. Good video... all true. Keeping it real with Brandon!
@tomconjalka Ha i paused b/c I was going to edit it out, but when I re-watched it I thought it was kind of funny and like you said I kind of look surprised, so I left it in!
just a question, why would you put the link on the very bottom to where i cant reach it cause youtube wont let, the play bar shows up and i cant click the link cause of it
@CampbellFitness thank you for making that change, just watched your workout log video, and it was a really great video, i love the useful info you give, keep it up!
I looked at the PHAT routine that you mentioned last time, but it seems way too intense ( 5 days a week and hitting body parts 2x a week). So I was wondering what sort of routine you did before PHAT, cause you obviously have had results with that too. Specifically tho, do you recommend doing tris and bis after chest and back respectively? Or do you suggest Chest/bi and Back/tri, or a separate arm day all together? Thanks
@Soullimit Before the PHAT routine I was on a 4 day push/pull split where I was hitting body parts twice a week. I've found my body responds better to this than your typical once a week. Because I do everything twice a week, my volume each day is much less. As far as when to train what goes, I believe it should vary with each program you do. So if the one you're on now pairs back and bi's, then maybe next program look for one that does chest and bi's or even gives arms its own day.
Love this series, great video Brandon. Thanks for putting this stuff out there. I've kept workout journals for the past two years and it's the only way to go. Moving to these weightlifting routines I have continued to keep logs. Even with the logs so far for two weeks of workouts I'm still dialing in on my working sets. Couldn't imagine doing this without a log.
@MrKrondike That's what some people want. They don't care about leg training (which is fine), but like I said in my legs video, you can really benefit your overall training program by incorporating them the right way.
@Kazaamproductions101 You'd probably put on some fat, but by tracking you can be more precise and lessen the amount of fat that you'd add otherwise. Keeping your abs has a lot to do with overall body fat percentage. So as long as you keep it below a certain level, you should be fine.
dude i cant say how much i love your videos and im so glad i stumbled on your videos a while ago...you give all the details but quick and straight to the point as well
please dont stop making these videos, love your advice and knowledge!
@CaptainCrunch541 use a site like myfitnesspal. It's so easy and really customizable. Most foods are already loaded in, so you just have to type in what you ate. They also have apps for your phone so you can do it on the go.
thank you sir, great video, i like being consistent i'm lifting big know started doing barbell squats know i heard is very important, and on supplements i only take whey protein, and my bcaa's, i got tired of eating chicken, so i transfer to tilapia, and salmon, u should do a video on a fish recipes ;)
@blazersfan7 Honestly I don't like the Lakers one bit. I loved those late 90's early 00's Blazer teams. Brian Grant's prob one of my all time favorites from those teams. I just like jerseys and hats as you can probably tell.

@xXMcGwaPauLXx Also, I don't really like the way your program is set up. Based off of what you've said it looks like this:
Mon- Off
Tues - Legs/Shoulders/Bi/Tri
Weds- Off
Thurs- Chest/Bi
Fri- Off
Sat- Back/Tri
Sun- Legs/Shoulders/Bi/Tri
You're hitting your arms way too much in this split, also your days off don't really make too much sense to me.

Thurs: Pull (Back, Bi, Traps, Ham, Abs)
Sat: Push (Chest, Tri, Shoulder, Quads, Calves)
Sun: Pull (Back, Bi, Traps, Ham, Abs)
Or you can just do:
Tues: Chest
Thurs: Back
Sat: Arms
Sun: Legs

@CampbellFitness let's say if i would workout in the morning during MWF... i plan on doing these program.

hey brandon i havent been to the gym in a while( approx 2months) due to an injury.
i plan on getting bak soon so regarding my first workout, should i make it a "warm-up" day or should i just start with my usual split?
MadeOfAdamantium 6 months ago
@MadeOfAdamantium You can do your usual split but I'd highly suggest going extremely light for the duration of the workout. You want to reintroduce your body to stress. If you just jump right in you risk getting injured or being unnecessarily sore after. Glad to hear you're able to get back into it though!

CampbellFitness 6 months ago
I think most people make this mistake, especially if they are just starting out. Consistency is key to gaining muscle, or loosing fat. The reason you grow is because your body adapts to the new stress imposed upon it, but if you only put it under stress now and then, in between the times of stress your body will learn it can "slack off" and you won't see any real gains. Good video as always bro. I really like this series I have learned a lot!

for the fitness journal link you put it in the worst spot possible, you put it right next to the play button, so whenever you put your mouse there the whole bottom tab thing automatically comes up and blocks it.

CampbellFitness 6 months ago
Doing my legs for the truly first time and I think the squats have killed my legs. Very weak in the legs but they'll get better.
Right-on, a log and a program is needed. Without an aim we do things aimlessly.
Great advice. Consistency is the engine that drives us to our goals.

@CampbellFitness thank you for making that change, just watched your workout log video, and it was a really great video, i love the useful info you give, keep it up!
kidbuu101 6 months ago
Hey,
I looked at the PHAT routine that you mentioned last time, but it seems way too intense ( 5 days a week and hitting body parts 2x a week). So I was wondering what sort of routine you did before PHAT, cause you obviously have had results with that too. Specifically tho, do you recommend doing tris and bis after chest and back respectively? Or do you suggest Chest/bi and Back/tri, or a separate arm day all together? Thanks
Soullimit 6 months ago
@Soullimit Before the PHAT routine I was on a 4 day push/pull split where I was hitting body parts twice a week. I've found my body responds better to this than your typical once a week. Because I do everything twice a week, my volume each day is much less. As far as when to train what goes, I believe it should vary with each program you do. So if the one you're on now pairs back and bi's, then maybe next program look for one that does chest and bi's or even gives arms its own day.

Love this series, great video Brandon. Thanks for putting this stuff out there. I've kept workout journals for the past two years and it's the only way to go. Moving to these weightlifting routines I have continued to keep logs. Even with the logs so far for two weeks of workouts I'm still dialing in on my working sets. Couldn't imagine doing this without a log.

MrKrondike 6 months ago
@MrKrondike That's what some people want. They don't care about leg training (which is fine), but like I said in my legs video, you can really benefit your overall training program by incorporating them the right way.

soo if i have a good clean diet with the right amount of calories, could i bulk but also keep my abs??
Kazaamproductions101 6 months ago
@Kazaamproductions101 You'd probably put on some fat, but by tracking you can be more precise and lessen the amount of fat that you'd add otherwise. Keeping your abs has a lot to do with overall body fat percentage. So as long as you keep it below a certain level, you should be fine.
