The MASS EXTREME Guide is a 12 week
U C
plan which has been put together from my
D
years of training experience. It includes
everything I have learnt from nutrition
and training to help you achieve your goal
of adding lean muscle mass, increasing
strength and developing your physique to
the next level. The plan includes a clear
structured and easy to follow nutrition plan,
lots of tips and guides to help you along
the way and an intense periodised training
program that will help you towards your
goal of gaining solid lean muscle MASS!

The nutrition plan comes with two meal plans
to follow which you can alternate daily or
however you wish and the meal plans are split
between different body weight category’s
(70-75kg, 80-85kg, 90-95kg). The idea is to use
the meal plan that your weight category fits into.

N O T E S
FUNDAMENTAL NOTES BEFORE YOU BEGIN
WHAT ARE YOUR GOALS? If you don’t know start thinking about what
it is you want to achieve and write it down OR find a picture of your
ideal look and use it as motivation!
FAIL TO PLAN, PLAN TO FAIL, you should have a plan laid out for your
meals and training. Prep your meals, ideally the night before is always
best. This will avoid any excuses for falling off your plan.

NO T E S
FUNDAMENTAL NOTES BEFORE YOU BEGIN CONT.
EAT YOUR GREENS… yes your parents were right to force you to eat
veggies not only are they full of essential vitamins and minerals but
the fiber you get from veggies are essential as fiber aids in digestion
and utilizing all nutrients from foods you consume. The more veg you
eat the better. If you are not a fan of eating a lot of veg buy a good
quality greens powder.
WE ALL HAVE BAD DAYS where everything goes wrong which is fine
BUT learn from that and prepare better for next time…
MOST IMPORTANT: Enjoy the process and stay positive, because being
negative is counterproductive and never helps.

NUTRITION PLAN
KEY NOTES BEFORE BEGINNING THE MEAL PLAN
A
– Your current body weight will determine which meal plan you will
L
be using.
P
– The meal plans are divided into 3 weight divisions 70-75kg, 80-85kg
and 90-95kg.
– You will pick which ever weight category you fall into. i.e. if you are
72kg you will use the 70-75kg meal plan provided.
– If you find that weight gain has plateaued or you have increased weight
drastically after a couple weeks, then you can move onto the next meal
plan. For example, if you start on the 70-75kg plan and weight gain has
stalled or your weight has gone up to 80kg then start the 80-85kg plan.
– The total calories, protein, carbs and fats in the meal plan gives you an
idea of what you should be aiming to consume daily!
– Stick to the plan laid out as much as possible, however if you want to
spread the meals out even more through out the day by halving portion
sizes etc. then feel free. Make sure however that you consume ALL
your meals.
– All the serving sizes provided are all uncooked/raw scale weight
unless stated otherwise.

NUTRITION PLAN
KEY NOTES BEFORE BEGINNING THE MEAL PLAN
A
– The first week or two is always tough at times if you aren’t used to
L
eating so much food, best advice is to try and consume as many meals
P
as you can each day until you eventually get used to eating the entire
meal plan with ease (which trust me will happen).
– On REST DAYS the pre/intra/post workout meals can still be consumed
just incorporate them into one of the other meals throughout the day.
(**EXCLUDING THE MALTODEXTRIN**)
– CHEATMEAL: When having a cheat meal follow the meal plan provided
as normal then in the evening (or whenever you choose) replace one of
the meals with any one of your favourite ‘junk’ food. i.e. pizza and ice
cream, burger and fries etc. Remember cheat meal NOT cheat DAY.
– Cheat meal frequency for the week shall depend on your body weight
category and will go as follows:
– 70-75kg (154-165lbs) = 2 x cheat meals per week
– 80-85kg (176-187lbs) = 1 x cheat meal per week
– 90-95kg (198-209lbs) = 1 x cheat meal per week

SUPPLEMENT GUIDE
Below is a list of recommended supplements that can be integrated with
your diet and training. Remember supplements should be secondary to
D
your diet and cannot replace a well balanced diet. Unless stated on your
GU I
meal diary consume these as instructed on the label of the products.
WHEY IMPACT WEIGHT GAINER (MYPROTEIN)
The formula uses a blend of ultra fine scottish oats and activated
barley, as well as combining whey protein isolate and milk protein
concentrate which are fast and slow absorbing proteins making it ideal
for immediately after a work-out or as supplement throughout the day.
It has over 27g of protein per serving which will contribute to the growth
and maintenance of lean muscle mass as well as providing over 300
calories per serving. (You can also use a substitute brand if preferred).
BCAA OR ESSENTIAL AMINO ACIDS (IMPORTANT FOR
LEAN MUSCLE GROWTH) CAN BE TAKEN INTRA WORKOUT.
Branched chain amino acids are essential amino acids which contain
a 2:1:1 ratio of Leucine, Isoleucine and Valine. These amino acids are
considered to be essential as they cannot be synthesized by the body, so
must be consumed from dietary sources.
During exercise amino acids become more important as it is difficult
to maintain the desired levels from food alone. Amino acids can be
consumed throughout the day for or before, during and after workouts
and also on a fasted state before cardio.

SUPPLEMENT GUIDE
CREATINE MONOHYDRATE / CREAPURE
Creatine Monohydrate is probably the most researched supplement
D
out there and the benefits are absolutely outstanding when it comes to
GU I
training. Creatine can act to increase physical performance in successive
bursts of short-term, high intensity exercise and is ideal for sports which
require high-intensity, explosive movements such as bodybuilders, power
lifters and sprinters. Creapure is a less filtered version of creatine which
means less water retention.
OMEGA 3 6 9 FISH OILS
Omega 3-6-9 contains essential fatty acids that are made up of EPA
(eicosapentaenoic acid) and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) - both long
chain fatty acids that have been shown to contribute to the normal
function of the heart. ish oil has been proven to aid in burning fat by
protecting against insulin resistance, it is anti-inflammatory in nature
so has a role to play in the immune system, it increases the synthesis of
protein in the body and lastly it speeds up metabolism on a cellular level.
MULTIVATMIN & IRON
I always recommend a good multivitamin as try as hard as we might
we cannot get enough minerals and vitamins from our daily meals and
supplement with a multi is a great idea to increase our intake.
16
E M E N T
U
S EP P L
SUPPLEMENT GUIDE
PRE WORKOUT (with or without stimulant)
I always find that a great pre workout before a session can really
D
help in the intensity of a session. There are great pre workouts in the
GU I
market with or without stimulants. Check out a great pre workout from
Myprotein the ‘Myprotein Pre’ Pre workout personally.
VITAMIN D3
Vitamin D3 is a fat soluble vitamin which is produced underneath the skin
following sun exposure. It is also found in small amounts in many foods
such as salmon, mackerel, sardines, eggs and milk but can be consumed
in high amounts through supplementation. Vitamin D3 has a number of
key health benefits including; contributing to the normal absorption and
utilization of calcium and phosphorus, contributing to normal calcium
levels, contributing to the maintenance of normal bone and muscle
function, and contributing to the normal function of the immune system
and cell division.
CASEIN
Casein is a, slow release protein derived from milk. It’s absorbed slowly
by the stomach allowing a tapered supply of amino acids to the muscle
over a prolonged period of time. This makes Casein the ideal protein
supplement for before bed. During sleep, the body is normally starved
of nutrients as it is impractical to consume food and therefore, a slow
release protein can be ideal for recovery throughout the night. This
protein source has a complete amino acid profile and contains branched
chain amino acids (BCAAs) and will contribute to the growth and
maintenance of muscle mass.

TIPS ON MEAL PREP AND ORGANISATION
Below are tips and tools that you can use to help in meal preparations.
GU I D
PLAN YOUR WEEK AHEAD OF TIME
Frozen veg – you can buy almost all veg frozen and put in freezer
just as good as fresh and last longer and its cheaper
Bottled egg whites which can be bought on sites like myprotein.co.uk
Frozen berries – cheaper than fresh berries
Nut butter (sugar free) – cashews, almonds, peanut.
Food Dr, Dr Zaks or Ezekiel Bread – high in fibre and protein,
low in carbs and low calories are great
ORGANISATION TOOLS:
Food containers (BPA free ideal) – buy at least 6 tupper wear trust
me better to have more.
Protein shakers – for mixing your protein powder, smart shakers
the brand are great!
Zip lock bags or plastic wrap for freezing foods, steaming bags,
baking bags
Ideally a 6 pack bag is perfect you can pack most of your meals
and has compartments for protein Shaker shaker, and all your
supplements and snacks
Get a pill box for your vitamins and supplements.

PLAN YOUR WEEK AHEAD OF TIME
Write down a weekly schedule of what you are planning to eat on what
I D
days. Just a rough plan e.g breakfast Monday- eggs, mid-morning- protein
GU
shake, greens, nuts, lunch- chicken salad, afternoon snack- cottage
cheese& celery, dinner- fish and veggies. It will help with planning your
shopping list and assist you in finding foods to leave at work on in your car
if you’re out and about. Planning a weak ahead also allows yourself the
possibility of a treat meal e.g plan to eat well Monday to Friday, Saturday
allow yourself a meal out with a friend or a cheat of your favorite meal like
for example; ice-cream or pizza, you will feel you have truly earned it and
something to look forward to.

MONEY SAVING TIPS WHEN FOOD SHOPPING
Healthy eating doesn’t have to be expensive, with a little planning, you
I D
can enjoy healthy, superfood-rich meals without spending a fortune.
GU
Look at grocery store ads and use coupons when making out your weekly
meal plan. That way, you can select meals based on food items that are
on sale. If you’re not sure what you want, search for ‘grocery coupons’
and tour various sites to see how they work.
Shopping online for your food items is easier and also always cheaper
in most cases, it’s also easy to compare prices of various supermarkets.
There are lots of apps for your phones that compare supermarket prices
and nowadays with free delivery it’s a win win. So plan your weekly
shop ahead!
Buying your meat poultry and fish from butchers is always cheaper
than the supermarket as you have room to barter! Trust me, you might
be timid when asking the butchers BUT don’t be - I learnt this valuable
lesson from my mother. Repack extra steaks, chops, chicken pieces,
or fillets in freezer bags and freeze them for future use.
Buying frozen meat is always a far cheaper option than buying freshly
cut meat. For example, buy a whole frozen chicken. Chicken is a great
source of protein and is low in fat when you remove the skin.
21
E N T I A L
S S
E ES & T I PS
Make your own frozen meals. Double your recipes and freeze half of them
for use at a later time. Freeze the foods in microwave-safe containers
NEVER EVER go food shopping when you are hungry! In fact have a
I D
meal before going food shopping as this will stop you from buying
GU
unnecessary crap.
Buying in Bulk is also always a great way of saving money on items like
eggs, dry beans, pulses and oatmeal. Also, canned goods like black
beans, tuna and salmon have long shelf lives, so buy them when they are
on sale (which is often) and use them when you’re ready.
Frozen veggies and, in some cases, fruits (berries) are a far cheaper and
convenient option than fresh. And here’s the thing - Frozen is JUST AS
GOOD. And as its frozen, it will be available to you for much longer. It is
also cheaper to buy vegetables when they are in season - following the
seasons is a nice way to add variety to your meals. Buying lots of extra
fruits and veg that are in season and freezing them also means you can
enjoy when them when they aren’t in season and save money.

COOKING TIPS
IN
VARIETY IS THE SPICE OF LIFE
We all know that eating the same foods can get monotonous and boring
so here are a few tips to make it less boring and more interesting.
First thing you need to do is at your local supermarket go to the spices
and herbs section and buy all the varieties you can find and store in your
kitchen cupboard make sure they are just crushed or mixed herbs and
spices (no sugar added etc.) You can even buy brands like ‘flavour god’
online. Use those herbs and spices when cooking, so for example add
some paprika and chilli flakes to your oven baked sweet potatoes.
When boiling your starchy carbs (pasta rice etc.) or vegetables use stock
cubes as this gives added taste to plain carbs and makes veg taste good
to. Also why not add spices like curry powder or even paprika to your
boiling rice to make it more interesting!
Change sources of protein and veg weekly so if you have chicken and
fish everyday change it to beef and pork for another week. Same goes for
veg. There are literally 100’s of various veggies to choose from so why
eat the same? I usually buy frozen mixed vegetables from supermarkets
which are already chopped and prepped so makes life easier.
There are so many options for starchy carbs, i.e. cous cous , quinoa,
barley etc boil them just like rice OR you can buy them in packets from
supermarkets with lots of different variety of spice mixes, available, just
make sure sugar isn’t included or corn syrup.
23
G T I PS
O K IN
Nowadays you can also buy packaged and pre boiled rice from thai
CO
jasmine rice to coconut rice, just pop into the microwave and VIOLA!!!
How about baking your chicken in a bowl with chopped tin tomatoes
and adding spices like cumin, basil, and chilli to it? Just add the tin of
tomatoes to your macros. You can do this with fish also.
Try roasting your veg (asparagus, carrots, bell peppers etc) also under
the grill, lightly baste them with butter and grill them. Bake your dark
poultry meats (drumsticks and thighs) - Marinade your meats overnight
as this means the flavour would be even more intense again use your
spice mix.
Another top tip is to chop up your meats marinade some and store for
later use, put them in freezer bags and stock in your freezer for later this
saves you time. When you need them all you have to do is take it out the
freezer defrost it and either bake or fry.

A FEW POINTS BEFORE YOU BEGIN;
WHAT IS YOUR GOAL? Before starting this programme the question you
A
have to ask yourself is ‘what is my goal?’ be specific and also realistic

with your goal but make sure you have a goal to work towards!!

RESISTANCE TRAINING
R INING
FEW POINTS BEFORE YOU BEGIN;
KEEP A TRAINING LOG/DAIRY - A training Log/diary is also a great idea,
TR A
writing small notes about each session to document how you felt about
a session and what you feel you could do better and even questions you
might have about certain exercises etc
INTENSITY IS KEY – train like you mean it, remember what your goal is,
what you want to achieve and put that focus and energy into your sessions.
After a session ask yourself ‘could I have done more?’ if the answer
is YES, then you know that next session you need to train even better,
however if the answer is NO then remember that feeling for each and
every session.

PHASE 1 - GERMAN VOLUME STRENGTH TRAINING
Phase 1 of your training plan we will start with German Volume Strength
Training. This training is all about lots of sets and Low rep ranges.
Yes, the first 2 exercises on each workout are 10 SETS!
A1 – A2: This means it is a superset so you will perform A1 then go straight
to A2 then rest after A2. All supersets have also been highlighted in the
same colors.
If you find it hard in your gym to superset some of the exercises, then stick
to doing one workout at a time that is fine.
You should FAIL before you hit the last rep on ALL exercises, if you are
completing the reps allocated with ease then the weight is too light.
Stick to the rest times allocated, if you can have a conversation whilst
resting that means you should already have started the next exercise.
WARM UP for at least 5-10mins before training ALWAYS, start with a super
light set on the muscle group you are working or on a cardio machine of
your choice.
Use a spotter whenever you can or training with a partner is also great too
as they can give you that extra push you need.
And most important ….ENJOY IT!!
GYM BAG ESSENTIALS: You should always have these with you in in most
sessions; (knee wraps/sleeves, weight lifting belt, chalk, wrist straps,
water bottle, training print out to log workouts, towel)

PHASE 2: LEAN MASS TRAINING (LMT)
This is an 8 week plan.
The exercises are in groups so 1a, 1b, 2a, 2b, 2c etc. so for example
1a - Wide grip pull ups superset with 1b – Bent over rows
The supersets are all colour coded also to make it easier to spot which
exercises are supersets and which aren’t.
START light - do not lift with your ego…this can lead to incorrect form and
technique which can also lead to injury or simply a waste of your time at
the gym!!
REST PERIOD - is a guide line but try and avoid resting longer than you
need to. KEEP THE INTENSITY.
PROGRESSIVE OVERLOAD - Try to increase the weights you are doing at
least every 2 weeks, as strength should be improving and to stop your body
adapting to the workouts.
DROPSET – start with a heavy enough weight for the amount of reps
specified on the programme then reduce the weight and perform the same
exercise till failure and then repeat again for 4 x in total. YouTube this if
unsure what a drop set is.
TEMPO – this is the speed of the actual exercise so here is an explanation
for seated shoulder press; (4 – the speed of the eccentric phase of the
workout (bringing the weights down, 0 – no rest at the end of the eccentric
phase, 1 – the speed of the concentric phase (pushing the weights up,
0 – no rest and straight back to the eccentric phase.) Another example
is when you do a dumbbell curl as the dumbbell comes downwards that’s
the ECCENTRIC and as you bring the dumbbell up to a curl that’s the
CONCENTRIC Phase.

PHASE 2: LEAN MASS TRAINING (LMT)
TIMETABLE - You can train 4 or 5 times a week for Example: Change the
training days according to your schedule. Or just follow the timetable set
out in the plan.
FAILURE - You should aim to FAIL before you hit the last rep on all
exercises otherwise the weight is too Light if this happens change the
weight for the next set. Or make a note of this for the next workout.
Don’t be reckless warm up for 5min before training ALWAYS and start
with a super light set FIRST on the parts you will be training.
TRAINING PARTNER/SPOTTER - Use a spotter whenever you can as this can
help you push that extra bit more on your lifts or a training partner is also
great make sure however you are both training NOT having a conversation
and rest for too long.
GET OFF YOUR PHONE – turn your phone on AIRPLANE MODE or close
all apps except for your music and Notes if you use your phone for that
purpose otherwise leave it in your locker. Having your phone can be a
major distraction.
FOAM ROLLING AND MOBILITY WORK – is very essential when training.
Spending at least 10mins doing these 2 x a week is great to help with
recovery (reduce DOMS) , can help to prevent injury’s and muscle
tightness.
ACCESSORIES - Use knee wraps weight lifting belt and chalk when needed.
You can use straps for weighted pull ups and if you have Fat Gripz even
better!

PHASE 2: TIME TABLE
It is Best to stick with the Timetable provided however if needed the days
off and body parts trained in the week can be changed to suit your lifestyle
BUT no more than 2 days off a week. You can train anywhere between 5–6
days a week. You need at least ONE rest day.
