Hehe Orb. I thought of you when I wrote that.
Lifting is bad for me cause you can get hurt doing it (as in pull a muscle, etc) - I also dislike going to the gym because of the people. It just doesn't feel natural to me (I do it anyway when I have to, like now)
I'd much rather get mass just doing the stuff I love - playing basketball, hiking, rock-climbing, mountaineering, etc. Maybe some people can't do it that way, but I did. I just like to be outside and doing stuff instead of grinding away at a gym with other 9 to 5ers that seem to be only there because their doctor said they'd die if they didn't go. |

yeah, for the most part I feel the same. I mean, ive been rock climbing for 10 years now, and I basically do everything there is to do outside hehe.
Ive found that my working out has made me better at all those things though. So when Im like, alright, Ill work out legs hard monday, I cant go hiking for three days, but after that Ill go do Si...
I do get put out of commission for about half of the week because of weights, but like I said, Ive been able to do everything harder and longer because of the weight supplement.
I just think its impossible to get the look of the body down right by doing stuff. your average gym goer considers that to be an activity, and I definitely dont agree with that. Id rather be on top of a mountain any day, but putting on a shirt that fits everywhere is awesome :p
No real point to that story, actually. Just kind of saying I agree mostly. the key is doing *everything* and in moderation :thepirate |

| do 3x30 pushups everyday, when you arenīt visiting the gym regulary. And EAT as mutch as you can, i mean, everytime you feel slighty hungry, go grab tons of food and just shove it down. It worked for me |

Yeah I eat! But it isn't enough. I take in about 3,000 calories a day...more on weekends.
I'm 6'2" and I weigh 130lb... :wtf: Do the math...
I play basketball 2x week when I can and I bike about 15 miles a week on average.
What gives?

Eh....sounds like me. I'm 6 feet even, 138 pounds. I must take in about 3.5-4k calories per day, and I weight lift every day, plus swim a mile or more. Oh and I take protein supplements.
I gained half a pound in three weeks.:( |

| Im 6'4" and about 180lbs, but im not fat. in fact im quite skinny. i wonder where the weight is. i have a very fast metabolism. i eat so unhealthy, fatty food, but never gain weight. if you wanna gain weight and your metabolism is too high to allow you to do so by eating, all i can say is work out. go to the gym atleast 4x a week and do some strength training. that or spend 400 bucks on a moderate home gym. ex: i have a Total Gym, and its helped me gain muscle and weight. i dont use it enough to gain much muscle, but i can garauntee that it helped me gain some weight. just dont gain the wrong kinda weight. you dont wanna be fat. atleast, no one in their right mind would want to be. oh yeah, and buy that protein mix at GNC or soemthing. it will help you gain muscle faster. just remember that muscle weighs more than fat... |

Never, ever, buy anything at GNC. If you need protein, go to Protein Factory or All The Whey. |
