Play NCAA tennis, took this semester off for family reasons. Looking to bulk up and get stronger, but not sacrifice any flexibility, speed etc. Currently 6'3'' 175lbs, and i'd like to be 185-190 come January 1, 2010. Is this doable?

have you considered working out in the water?
tremendous gains in strength, quickness (it's
plyometric) & you can't get injured!

Hey,

Try this one:

Muscle Mass Workout

You're going to need to increase your calorie intake by 250-400kcal per day with your increased exercise level. Your diet plan is a little harder to plan. Have you considered seeing a nutritionist?

Definitely. 1-2 pounds per week of muscle can be achieved. You may want to go through a bulking phase and then a trimming phase to make sure you don't gain any fat with the muscle. Try going up to 195 and then trim down to 185.
