Gaining, feels good man. it is possible if you just started working out ofc.

[QUOTE=Otsegolation;20547159]I eat cookie dough and drink energy drinks for snacks, and pizza pops as the main course while playing css all day. According to my past 4 years of this, this is not a valid way of putting on weight. I am however probably successfully slowly killing myself.[/QUOTE] Oh god I might get some pizza soon I just recovered from the most god awful stomach virus ever. I must have lost like 60 damned pounds. [editline]03:51PM[/editline] [QUOTE=Sgt N3wb;20552152]I drink muscle milk.

[QUOTE=VDM;20551755]Have you been doing the same routine for the past 5 months ? Then its about time you confuse your muscles. huh what ? Well your muscles adjust to your workout they get used to your exercises etc. Trying variating in your sets/Exercises. [B]To Grow:[/B] [B]Proper nutrition:[/B] got a schedule for eating ? i just see 3 eat moments. beter to devide them in 6 over the day. [B]Rest:[/B] You barley give your legs any rest at all! also you are 5 months in and stil doing a full body work out. Time to get a new schedule.

[B]Monday[/B]: Upperbody ( Shoulders, upper back, Biceps, Triceps, Shoulders, Lowerback) [B]Wednesday:[/B] Shoulders, legs ? ( give your shoulders some rest, you wont be able to go full out here ) [B]Friday:[/B] Both Combined ( how the fuck would you be able to train legs again, let alone run ? your legs should stil be dead on friday if Wednesday was a proper leg workout ) go for something like this: More time to foccus on one muscle group: More exercises to do! Monday: Chest/Bicep ( run ) Wednesday: Calvs/tricep/back Friday: legs/shoulders Ps: Fuck the machines, Irons make's you stronger. Tobad you are a ectomorph though :( sucks being a hardgainer List your eat+Training schedule plox. ( exercises for each muscle group eating moments and what you eat each moment ) Might be able to help you out :)[/QUOTE] Thanks a lot, and most of the worksouts are done with either an Olympic Bar or Dumbells, execpt for the neck machine, iso row (back workout), lat pull down. I don't have my workout schedule on me but I can get one, here's what I remember from it. [b]Monday[/b] 1. DKD or nordic Hamstrings 2. Bench press 10-8-6-6 (we switch it up alot from more weight for a 5-5-5) 2. Shrugs for the neck 3. Lat pull down 4. A long ass core workout 5. Iso row/DY row [b]Wendsday[/b] 1. Squats 10-8-6 (or 5-5-5) and in between each set we do power pulls 2. DB incline Shoulder Press 3. Romanian Deadlifts 4. Squat press (I might do this on mobday, or wendsday not sure) 5. Tricep workouts 6. Core [b]Friday[/b] 1. Dead lifts or leg press 2. Bench press same as Monday 3. Nordic hamstrings 4. Agility work 5. Iso row/Dy row That should be close to accurate, I just kinda do whatever is on the sheet that my instructor gives me. My instructor teaches me form and I have worked on that, usually I go until muscle fatigue cause I ain't no pussy. I run sprints on Monday Wendsday and Thursday for about an hour, but it isn't an hour straight we job and have breaks and such. I eat a relatively high fat diet because I often have fast food for lunch, I'd say the most I lack in my diet is fruits but I do eat a lot of vegetables and meat. I have definitely noticed improvement, more toning I'm even getting a nice little 4 pack going on but I am not really putting on weight besides a fluxuation of one or two pounds which comes and goes.

Eat McDonalds everyday then post on Facepunch all day.

Incorporate more protein in your diet, not just calories. Probably need more meat. Try bacon and steak for breakfast for 2 weeks and see how that works out.

No way you're eating 6000 calories a day. A normal person eats around 2500 calories a day.

[QUOTE=sp00ks;20556418]No way you're eating 6000 calories a day. A normal person eats around 2500 calories a day.[/QUOTE] Or you know, I could be going out of my way to try and be a fatass like I said I was. It was a rough estimate, nothing exact.

I'm 6''1 and 180lb Im working on gettan some more muscle so I can be all like"CZECH OUT DEEZ GUNS!1"

How old are you, your not gonna get big at a young age.

No wonder you aren't gaining any weight, you do low weight high reps. Do high weight low reps and your 1RM will go up a shitload.

[QUOTE=breakyourfac;20556465]Or you know, I could be going out of my way to try and be a fatass like I said I was. It was a rough estimate, nothing exact.[/QUOTE] You'd have to eat over around 1200 grams of milk chocolate to get 6000 calories. No way you're eating that much food.

I'm 15, maybe it isn't exactly 6,000 calories but I eat just about whenever I get a chance too, it's well over the regular daily value.

Its best for you to replace some exercise or add some. Since your muscles adjusted to this schedule and are already used to it. This are just some ideas! let me give you a site where you can look up exercises your self. [URL]http://www.muscleandstrength.com/exercises/main.html[/URL] [B] Monday[/B] 1. DKD or nordic Hamstrings ( Replace for lunges ) 2. Bench press 10-8-6-6 (we switch it up alot from more weight for a 5-5-5) (flat Dumbbell press instead of bench, try this for 6 weeks or so and you will also improve with bench press. Grab some Flys and decline dumbbell presses for the shape of the chest. 2. Shrugs for the neck ( Arnold press, Military press, Barbell Upright Rows ) 3. Lat pull down ( Do some fucking wide grip pull ups there ) 4. A long ass core workout 5. Iso row/DY row [B]Wendsday[/B] 1. Squats 10-8-6 (or 5-5-5) and in between each set we do power pulls 2. DB incline Shoulder Press 3. Romanian Deadlifts 4. Squat press (I might do this on mobday, or wendsday not sure) 5. Tricep workouts 6. Core [B]Friday[/B] 1. Dead lifts or leg press 2. Bench press same as Monday 3. Nordic hamstrings 4. Agility work 5. Iso row/Dy row The rest you can look up on the website. In my opinion you give each muscle to little attention. For example shoulder: shrugs and thats it. Try adding: Lat raises/Arnold press/Shrugs etc etc. Also try lifting heavier, less reps. But maintain perfect form! no cheating. Sit down with your trainer and set up a nice schedule, ask him for 2 muscle groups a day. Instead of full body. ( although making a schedule your self is fairly easy ) About your breakfast: Complex carbohydrates ! Oats bra! best way to start the morning. Watch out for them simple carbs. Dont expect to do massive gains in a week or two. You are just 15 and still growing, so combing that with fitness is great! cause sooner or later you will gain weight, Its a pitty i have no clue about what you guys sell or how something are called. Could have given you some more nutrition help. oh btw this is just advice, im not some trainings expert. dont forget that.

Train like a beast eat like a fat guy, that aint gonna work. Atleast 30 Grams of Protein each meals divided over 6 meals a day. Think about food as: chicken Whole grain bread with Turkey. Brown rice etc ( shit loads of info about this on the internet ) To shorten this all down 1, Get your nutrition straight, Check the internet for bulking receipts etc. 2, Sit down with your coach and discuss a new training schedule. Lift heavy less reps 3, Know your nutrition! do alot of research on that part buddy Over and out

[QUOTE=breakyourfac;20551183]I run sprints in track, I'm a running back in football. I do squats (180 is normal weight for me) and I deadlift 275, We also have leg press machines bench press shoulder press, it's a pretty nice gym atm[/QUOTE] You're deadlifting 274 pounds? And you're 15? No way.

Take a look at the following page and sub-forum for nutrition stuff. But whatever you do, DON'T bulk on a diet of unhealthy shit. No matter how much more efficient it is for gaining muscle, the fat gain isn't worth it, especially since you need to be fast for your speed. [url]http://www.bodybuilding.com/fun/layne2.htm[/url] [url]http://forum.bodybuilding.com/forumdisplay.php?f=13[/url] As for workout routines, this is a really good one, focusing on compound lifts rather than each individual muscle. It's probably better for sport than a split. [url]http://forum.bodybuilding.com/showthread.php?t=117429161[/url] What are your lift stats? [editline]05:02PM[/editline] Also nice DL, I used to squat 220 but my legs became way too big and I'm 5'6 so it looked really unproportional, especially since my upper body is very weak in comparison. [editline]05:03PM[/editline] [QUOTE=Sgt N3wb;20552152]I drink muscle milk. Gained 13 pounds in a week with exercise.[/QUOTE] i cant believe no one realised this guy was a troll. damn you guys are gullible.

Protein power and protein bars helped me go from 100lbs to 130lbs, with just a modest amount of weight lifting. Shit is expensive as hell though.

Also with protein powder and stuff, don't let it replace your food. 1 scoop of powder post workout is good. Look at the nutrition forum I posted, it has a million times the information you will get in this thread.

I'm 5'4" and I'm 100 pounds, I can't gain weight. Even when I eat a lot and exercise, metabolism just kicks in and when I weigh myself again, I'm still 100lbs.

[QUOTE=Melkor;20564148]You're deadlifting 274 pounds? And you're 15? No way.[/QUOTE] I'm a sprinter most of my muscle is in my legs. This fat ass linemen that I work out with does like 305 and he's my age.

Deadlifting 275 pounds really isn't impressive, even at 15. When I was 14 I was deadlifting 330ish. Oh yeah and the kids who weigh 100lbs, you either haven't hit puberty or your not eating enough, its not your metabolism.

Exactly broseph. All you have to do to gain weight is eat big, lift big, and good amounts of rest like 8 or more hours of sleep . Your diets more important then the weight your lifting bra.
