GOMAD + SS + CF for a 14 year old?
I want to gain a lot of muscle for the upcoming lacrosse season. I am 5'8" and 145 pounds, and have some excess body fat, but not much. I have been doing CF for 6 months, and can squat 145 and dl 205 (to get an idea of how strong I am) I can use the barbells and bumpers after my normal workout with crossfit. Would it be a good idea to do GOMAD plus SS plus Crossfit? I normally eat a fairly paleo diet. What would I eat in addition to the milk? How many calories do you think I need/day?

You can't do SS + CF. If you did the workouts from SS and added CF then YNDTP. Goals, what are they? |

Re: GOMAD + SS + CF for a 14 year old?
I would like to gain strength to be able to knock down people when I am playing lacrosse. It is about six or so months until the season starts, and by then, I would like to squat 165, DL 230 and power clean 130. Doing crossfit would be something once or twice every week to get some metcon in there.

Don't try to combine CF and SS. That will just stunt your gains in both. It might work for awhile while the novice effect is still happening, but that time will run out in a hurry. |

That answers my questions about combining SS and CF, but is a gallon of milk too much (calorie-wise) for someone with my body weight and metabolism?

You are 5'8" and 145. My 50 year skinny GJJ instructor weights more than you. I'm going to guess and say it's not to much. |

Don't jump right in with a gallon a day--start with a quart for a week or so, then a half gallon, and keep increasing if your body handles it ok. Make sure it's whole milk and make it in addition to what you were already eating, not as a replacement for your old meals. Get plenty of protein, good fats, and fruits and vegetables. |

Re: GOMAD + SS + CF for a 14 year old?
I'd say do Cf Football, some supplemental heavy lifts, and just eat a lot of food. The programming is tailor-made for football/rugby. Milk could definitely help you add some weight, but, personally, I feel very sluggish when I drink a lot of milk. Some thrive on it, some don't. Just be aware of how you feel and how your body reacts. Being 14 and doing GOMAD might give you that massive acne outbreak that every teenager loves, but it might not. Just make sure you follow Eric's advice and ease into it.

Id say do Crossfit Wichita Falls since you`ll get more consistancy in the big lifts. The program is basically SS modified so you can still do metcon. Crossfit football, I just checked out their site and it doesn't look like they've programmed any WOD's with heavy deadlifts, squats, or presses in almost 2 weeks.
