Fantastic progress mate, keep it up.
The lighting is much better in the second picture but to me it looks like you lost a bit of fat from the ab area as well, which means you gained more than just 7kg of muscle.

Aww shucks guys, you'll make me blush :D

As for diet, I didn't like the idea of bulking then cutting so I just did a lean bulk. My diet is pretty simple and not very varied but also not too repetitive.

Breakfast:
-Shreddies, semi skimmed milk, half tbsp. sugar
or
-4 slices of bread, nutella or peanut butter, ~300ml orange juice
or
On occasions when I'm late for uni, 2 scoops instant oats with water

Lunch/Supper - there are 4 different meals I cook depending on how I feel -normally lasts 2 days

Combo 1: 500g pasta, 400-500g lean mince, dolmio low fat Bolognese sauce
Combo 2: rice, 450g chicken breast fillet, tikka masala cooking sauce
Combo 3: 1.25kg potatoes (used to be yam till I moved out), 2 or 3 185g cans of tuna, sweetcorn, mayonnaise to taste
Combo 4: 500g pasta, 400g chopped tomatoes, 2 cans of tuna, spices/seasoning

Shakes
2 scoops of impact whey once or twice a day with water

Fruits
1 or 2 a day. Apples, bananas, grapes, plantain
I also tend to eat fast food sometimes - kfc like 4 times a month, and nandos/buffets ~ once a month


As for routine, I got it mostly from the GordyR guide and changing it after reading what others do.

Up until October, I cycled 8 miles a day mon-fri (to uni/gym, 4miles both ways) before moving to within 5mins of uni. Replaced it with *cough* swimming *cough* on Tuesdays, Thursdays sometimes Saturday.

Monday
-Barbell Bench press 5x5
-Squats (just started doing on Mondays too) 5x5
-Incline dumbbell press 5x5
-dips (used to be skull crushers) 10x3
-dumbbell flys 5x5
-Lat raises 8x3
-calf raises 10x4
If I feel like it:
-muscle ups 5x3
-pull ups till failure

Wednesday
-Deadlift 5x4-5 (excl. warm-up)
-bent over rows 8x3
-Lat pulldowns > BW 8x3
-shoulder press 5x5
-barbell bicep curls 10!
-calf raises 10x4
-muscle ups to failure
-pull ups to failure

Friday
-Squat 5x5
-dumbbell bench press 5x5
-leg extension 8x3
-leg curls 8x3
-leg press 10x4
-calf raises 10x4-5
again if I feel like it, muscle ups and pull ups to failure

I'm welcome to any suggestions too

Swimming in a lake
black guys can do that!? continue to be amazed.

I was going to comment on the swimming... but refrained....

Awesome Temi!

You have clearly been smashing the gym solid. I need to take a photo now and store it somewhere for a years time.

Plan for 1st Jan. :) Figured it'd be a good time to actually get a photo up...

Just to clarify though, the lunch/supper meals, they're 4 meals worth? (or that's one meal, and you tend to stick to one for 2 days?)

Hm...

Same height *check*
Similar starting weight *check* (slightly less fat it'd seem from your first pic you had)
Plenty of time at uni *check* - Well at least until September when I start working
Reasonable amounts of cardio expected *check*
Similar diet *check*
Weightlifting program in place *check*

Right, a year's time and I'll be looking as good as you!

(p.s. start a training log!)
