Ok, i used to hit the gym hard, healthy diet and only protein. Its been 3 months, now i need to get back into the game.

I bought XPand-Creatine, and will purchase protein (not sure which is best).
I plan to hit the gym 2 times a day, short session in the morning, then a longer session in the evening.

I gained about 10 lbs of fat during the summer which puts me at approx 170lbs standing at 5'10''.

My goal is to bulk up AND loose the excess body fat that i have. i have a faint 4 pack left, but the beer gut is still present.

I used to weight train for 1 - 1.5 hours then cardio for about 45 minutes after. But like i said, now i need some professional assistance to optimize my time in the gym.

Also if someone can refer me to a site maybe? that has a good food plan for my goals, that would be greatly appreciated. Also suggestion for what protein i need and a good exercise program to help me bulk up.

Thanx a lot in advance for all your help, and if there are other sites i might be able to get my questions answered, or read more on, please advice.

Cheers

You're starting off full steam, which isn't necessarily a good thing.

I'd say less lifting, and less supplements.

If you put half as much time into your diet (planning and preparing) you will experience much greater results.

Do some research, this site has a lot on what to eat. You have to figure out for yourself how much to eat. It will be very hard if not impossible to bulk up and lose weight at the same time (conflicting nutritional requirements). I say pick a goal stick to it until you hit it and then swith priorities.
