Hi, i am 22, 135 pounds, 6 feet tall and cannot gain weight for my life.

I been lifting weights constantly for the past few months but haven't seen much improvement, i try to eat every 3 hours to keep myself full and am drinking mostly water.

Any tips? It's rather annoying to stay as slim as i am right now because i want to seriously gain weight. My metabolism is too fast to be honest and if i don't eat something every 4-5 hours i feel like im going to be sick.

For the past three weeks I've been going to the gym 5 nights a week. I know it's generally suggested to not go so much but I've been focusing on different aspects of my body on different nights.

I do cardio every night. Cardio and lower torso one night, then cardio and upper torso the next. Atm I'm looking to lose excess fat and replace it with pure muscle.

Any suggestions to speed this process up?

Sup anon,

So I lost a load of weight over the past two years (23 now) and i'm about 12 stone. I've got a couple of questions:

1. I've still got a fair bit of belly fat. What would you say would help the most in getting rid of this. Bearing in mind my diet is not too bad, I eat fairly clean and I get a lot of regular exercise (mainly walking)

2. Since losing weight, i've noticed some definition coming out in my arms which is cool. I'd like to generally beef up my arms a bit though. I walk everywhere and carry a ton of camera equipment with me most days so my upper body strength is good, however my arms by comparison look quite skinny, how can I bulk them up without looking phat as fuck.

thanks man

This is probably more of a question for a doctor or athletic trainer, but a neither of them would do anything about it, just tell me if I'm right or wrong, and I'm afraid if I verified with them I might not get cleared to play:
I'm pretty sure I broke my right big toe (though without an X-ray it can't be sure). Would it be advisable to continue to go 100% at practice (football) or should I try to take it easy? I know broken fingers and toes are both pretty minor, so in my head I should be fine and I was just going to go with it until I saw this thread.

What the hell is wrong with you. Personal Trainers go to college just like everyone else to get their degree. They have a useful profession just like most people.

I have a personal trainer and I wouldn't know what to do without him. Of course, now I kinda do but back when I first started out I didn't. Think before you post jackass.

OP I'm 6'6" and only 160. It's fucking annoying. I do half an hour to an hour workouts three times a week. I'm in decent shape. How do I bulk up some? I eat pretty normally, I sometimes skip a meal just because I forget or the time but I usually make up for it in another meal by eating a lot more.

I'm really at a loss. The men in my family are pretty twiggy like me, I don't want to be like that. Advice.

Also my diet. I mostly eat fruits, vegetables. I'm not a vegetarian, I just don't like to cook meat all that much and I don't eat out. Any way to bulk up without meats?

Thanks bro

Anything that makes you flex spine/lower the distance between ribs and pelvis.
Low reps hard exercises, not bazillion reps easy shit.

I like dragon flags and windshield wipers.

Good beginner move: crunches. Google crunch variations for progression. You want to get better, don't you?

L-sits. A good move involving lots of muscles and joints, and also training some balance.

Sit ups are great for training your hip flexors. Do them to get better at sports. Not a good exercise for abs though.
Leg raises are nice.

Wouldn't recommend: v-sit

One thing I have learned is that you don't want to do all muscle groups in one go, unless you have at least 3 hours to work out.

You are going to want at least 3 set dates throughout the week where you will work out for about 30 minutes to an hour.

For each day you will want to work on certain muscle groups. One day could be legs, the next day could be chest and triceps, and the final day could be back and biceps.

You just gotta figure out what works for you, but you definitely don't want to do all muscle groups or you won't get a good workout in.

I'm 19, 160 pounds, 6'1, and preparing for US Army Basic Training in 6 months.

I've been running for roughly a month, and I see no progress whatsoever. I don't have asthma, I don't have lung problems, and I've tried breathing techniques that everyone else uses. I have comfortable running shoes, but for the life of me, my cardio cannot be better. I also CANNOT gain any muscle, I'm slender and tall.

Want to gain muscle? Surprise, cardio wont help you much.

Lift weights. Heavy fucking weights.

Real exercises, not just biceps curls or machine whatsitnot isolation exercises.

Do: squats, deadlifts, bench press, chin ups, dips, overhead press: exercises where you use as many different muscles and joints as possible at once. With weights. Heavy weights.
Those are the main exercises to gain muscle, dexterity, strength.
Add extra stuff as needed or do variations of these exercises.

And continue doing some cardio on off days. I like rope skipping and burpees.
HIIT is efficient.

Hi there,

23, 6ft, 160lb here. I had a decently paying office job for the last year and indulged a bit too much. Never thought I could put on weight, always super skinny, until I started eating probably 3500 calories a day and not moving. I'm now a bit skinnyfat (no one would call me fat, but given the size of my body, I have too much fat around chest, neck and hips).

Been going for the gym for about 4 months, have made some noticeable progress. Current focus is eating big on workout days, lifting heavy, and sticking to TDEE on rest days. My question is, I'm tempted to cut to lose the fat I've gained before I start a proper bulk. Is this worth it, or should I just focus on bulking and lose the fat later after I've reached my target weight?
>>
>>570980505

I'm 18, 5'8" and around 140lbs (don't have an accurate scale unfortunately) and looking into joining the Navy once the year is done but I feel I'm not going to even be able to get in if I'm a hungry skeleton My appetite is pretty terrible and if I try to eat more then I have bizarre aches and pains in my stomach/surrounding area. I'm checking out the /fit/ eating guide and it seems pretty easy to follow.

The only exercise I really do is with a 25lb dumbbell. I'm thinking I should probably start doing a bit of cardio to up my stamina and appetite, but I'm worried about getting flatfooted and ruining any gains if I start working out. I don't feel like joining a gym and I don't know what kind of shoes I should get and the kind of work out equipment I'll need to get so I can work out from home. I don't need to get huge but I wouldn't mind getting toned.

Google it.

Doing chest exercises will make your chest bigger and firmer.

Uhh. This is why I go to a gym instead of exercising at home. I don't feel like having a room with all that stuff. Got enough stuff already.
Also going to the gym is useful, you can just ask random dudes for advice, check if you're doing your exercises right, go for a beer with muscleaheads, look at girls in yoga pants, get angry about shit you see and much more.

If I wanted to build a home gym, I'd get:
-squat rack or better power rack for extra safety when bench press.
-Barbell with weights
-Dumbbells with weights
-Somewhere to do chin ups. If you really have no place, not even a tree branch or whatever:
Pull up bar or better rings.
-Bench
- Dip station. Youtube crip dip for a cheap alternative. And laughs.
