Lee Priest is about your height and weighs in around 230 I believe. Of course, he is an Olympia bodybuilder. If your goal is pure mass without the corresponding bodybuilding look of cut muscularity, just keep gaining. If your goal is to be a "bodybuilder," I would suggest maintaining a bodyfat percentage of 8-12% while putting on mass. I have lost 20+lbs since April and have improved my bench by 40+lbs. Strength/mass and low bodyfat can be obtained at the same time with proper diet and training.

At the height of 5'6" a good weight for you with a muscular build would be 160-170.. at a bf& of 8-10%. I would suggest a mass & basic training program. I recommend the 12 week mass program here on ft. In terms of diet.. eat atleast 4 meals a day - better to have 6. Eat plenty of protein. You may supplement your diet with Creating & Glutamine. Good Luck. .o0 Arnold 0o.

Still, if you follow your workout program and diet honestly, in 6 months you should be able to gain 20 pounds of pure muscle in 6 months
