Just stepped off the scale. I feel good. :) Weighed in at 193lbs! That's up from 180 just 5 weeks ago! The software says i'll hit 220lbs in 12 weeks. :eek: Any skinny guys looking to bulk up, feel free to hit me up for free info.
P.S. And before someone screams "STEROIDS!"... um, no. All natural. |

Hey everybody, I heard that a quality regimen of working out and eating properly can help you gain muscle mass relatively quickly!
On a side note, I went from 198 to 179 in about 6 weeks from not eating bread, cheese, and drinking nothing but water. ing winter and its non-activity friendly atmosphere. |

There's been recent threads about working out (ie, "Who do you listen to while working out?" and "What suppliments do you take?") so if you do a search, you'll see some feedback there.
Sedentarism all the way...anyone can pack on the pounds by just continually posting/surfing on this website :p |

No secret, really. Hit up bodybuilding.com and johnstonefitness.com for good info. The two keys are: eat a LOT and work those muscles HARD. By eat a LOT, i mean close to 4,000 cal / day. That's a TON of food! And you have to make sure that you eat every 3 hours max, and have plenty of protein with every meal. You should be getting 1.5g of protein for every lb of body weight. The average person comsumes like 0.5g, so obviously adjustments to are gonna need to be made to your diet. And then come the workouts. You gotta hit your muscle HARD. Personally, i use MAX-OT, which is what my buddy John Stone from the site above used to get big as well. MAX-OT is targetted towards experienced lifters though, as the weights are EXTREMELY heavy. They do have an introductory phase though, that allows beginners to ease into the program over the course of some months. Check out ast-ss.com. If that's the wrong url, google AST Sport Science and MAX-OT. |

Gaining weight isn't hard at all... I can put on ten pounds in one weekend.
Somehow I don't see gaining or loosing 13 pounds is thread worthy. I should have started a thread when I lost 100 pounds....now that is thread worthy |

You can't put on 10lbs in one weekend. Physically impossible. You can weigh in at 10lbs more on Mon than you did on Fri, but it'd mostly be water weight and you'd lose nearly all of it by Wed. And anyway, we're not talking about ANY weight here. Certainly not water weight. The weight i'm talking about is MUSCLE weight. Of that 13lbs, a good 8-9 is muscle. That much muscle in 5 weeks is quite an achivement. Takes some people a year. |

Here's what you need to know guys:
Bulking:
Protein = Target Bodyweight x 1.0-1.25 gr
Carbs = Target Bodyweight x 15 - 20% of target bodyweight for every hour of exercise per week.
Fat = Target Bodyweight x 0.4-0.5 gr.
Cutting:
Protein = TBW x 1.25-1.5 gr.
Carbs = TBW x 5-10% of target bodyweight for every hour of exercise per week.
Fat = TBW x 0.4-0.5 gr.
The numbers depend on your level of intensity. If you have high intensity workouts, then you use higher number (e.g. when bulking take 1.25 grams of protein per every pound of your target bodyweight, not 1.0 gram)
Don't forget about the importance of pre and immediately post workout nutrition.
Pre-workout:
Protein = TBW x 0.25 gr
Carbs = TBW x 0.33 gr (complex carbs - low glycimic value)
Immediately after workout (within 20 minutes)
Protein = TBW x 0.25 gr.
Carbs = TBW x 0.5 gr (50% dextrose and 50% maltodextrine) |
