hi my name is Dan. My goal is to gain atleast twenty pounds in muscle and increase my strength for wrestling and some other sports.

My only problem is that I'm wrestling at the same time while lifting for muscle mass. Overtraining is something I want to avoid but I don't know how to get my body recover fast enough so I be ready for wrestling after I lift.

Just a quick run down my day:

I usually rock climb in the mornings, and on days I wrestle, I usually lift in the afternoon but on days I don't, I do it in the evening.

Your help will be grateful.

Thanks.

P.S. My teammates decided to start running in the early mornings two times a week.

that's all great..but what exactly is your question?

you didnt provide any info about your height/weight....etc...but at your activity level you may need to increase your calories drastically to gain the 20lb....

to get an effecient lifting program I would progress on big lifts and lift heavy for strength....

try www.sherdog.com Strength/power forum....a lot of MMAers/wrestlers/etc there....you can get specific advice there to suit your needs
