I searched this forum for a Hardgainer routine, but I did not come up with much, so I'm asking for some help from the vets.

I believe I wasn't seeing the results that I should have been prior, is b/c my diet wasn't right, but I believe I have that figured out. Thanks to Mike_XXL's diet. I just want to have my ducks in a row before I start my bulking this month, so I'm looking for advice on a good hardgainer training program.

Age: 30
Height: 6'2
Weight: 180

im a hardgainer as well, even while on-cycle and dieting similar to how you are doing it, it's tough to put on weight.

my advice would be to do high weight, low repetitions for each set. usually structure my reps like 8-10, 6-8, 4-6, 4-6, with the most weight i can possibly do. get you a little book to keep track of your progress, this helps out a TON.

Yes, I have found that the book helps a ton!! I have tried that those sets/reps, but you have to change up the lifts/sets.

Love it! Can't always be squeaky clean if you're trying to pack on some mass.
Every hardgainer in the world should have a cabinet full of weightgainer. :)

TOTAL CALORIES: 5047 calories per dayDexter Jackson had trouble gaining weight due to his fast metabolism as he was in the process of getting his pro-card. He only worked out 3 days per week to put on his size. He does 4 day now.

THE BEST YOU CAN DO FOR YOURSELF IS TO START ON THE 3 DAY PER WEEK SLINGSHOT TRAINING SYSTEM WHERE EACH BODY PART IS TRAINED ONLY ONCE A WEEK. Here's a link- http://forums.steroid.com/showthread.php?t=348723

The split below will work for you!
