How do I put on weight?

bobby_20 · 09-03-2006, 01:56 PM

Hello all, could really do with your help!
Im 20yr old lad, 5' 7" & approx. 63kgs. My weight is the problem, no matter how much I eat, I can't gain any significant weight.
I stopped doing weights back in August & haven't been back on 'em since. Theres no point really if I've got nothing to burn is there.
My diet consists of plenty of fruit & veg, steaks, loads of dairy products, the usual, but I'm not making any improvement.
Could anyone give me some advice, maybe from your own, similar experiences?

Hello mate don't worry a lot of us have been there. Read this thread and see if you still think your eating enough. If you are I'd reccomend you PM Soulcard a fellow mod. He has very high calorie requirements and would be a good help.

...if you want to gain weight you have to eat, and I mean EAT as in a LOT of clean and calorie dense foods...also, if you dont weight train you wont gain...bottom line...

oh, I was under the impression you would burn your self out, in sime way.
I eat 4/5 times a day, medium sized meals. Looks like i'd better get back in the gym then!

Well id say the best thing for you short of eating a diplodicus every day :P
Is to firstly work out a decent clean huge daily diet then invest in weight gain..I had a m8 with similar problems and weight gain along with 6 decent meals a day was just the thing to help him through,But yeh this would be pointless if you didnt work out..

I've tried a few brands, but weren't much good. Could you recommend any particular brands

Well yes i can but it will probably be argued by a few ..I swear by reflex.So if you ask me about any supps i will always go to reflex.

Post up your diet mate and let us take a look at it for you make sure you include everything vits supps water the whole shibang.

And stick around..Trust me its worth it.

I dont think he'll stick around (unfortunately, cuz he could probablly learn a lot and contribute from his experiences)...I'm wondering this post was a thinly disguised source request (damn I'm so suspucious sometimes

)...anyway, if you do make it back, there a LOT of guys here who have the same problem as you and have made some great gains...feel free to ask around bro!
