18

[x2jesse1x]

Im 18 and was thinking about going on steroids , but then many many people told me to wait, so im going to wait. Im a "hardgainer" so to speak. I weigh 165 lbs and am 6 foot tall. I CANT gain weight for my life. I am going to be starting lifting very soon, Can anyone tell me what would be the best thing to do to gain weight? I want muscel.

Try Diet again man, I'm Young too, but waited until I was 21 before even considering it but I have been training for 3 years

[Bouncer1982]

Weight gainer protein powders, something high in carbs

jesse you deff. shouldnt go on steroids if you are just starting to weight train.

[hung-solo]

yeah man, go to the diet forum for that stuff. there are plenty of peeps there that will help you out. peace and good luck. p.s. smart idea on waiting to go on a.s!! mad props to ya bro!! good luck man

[SAUCYgator]

if you havent even started lifting AS should be the furthest thing from your mind. weight train a couple years put on some natural size than when you know what you are doing consider AS. Also, you cant put weight on now but when you start lifting youll see how quickly 165 becomes 175 and so on....good luck

You need to up your calories, if your target weight is 200lbs then you need to eat like a 200 lb guy. Steroids at your age and training experience are not appropriate. You can achieve your goals much safer with proper diet and training,

Its one thing if you've been struggling in the gym for 5+ years and have a good diet down but you haven't even tried yet bro. Put together a bulking diet and hit the gym, how do you know you don't have great genetics for muscle mass if you haven't even started training yet...

[bjayg]

up the calories and stay with strict heavy movements (flat bench, incline bench, overhead barbell presses, preacher curls, closegrip bench, overhead tricep press) go as heavy as you can with low reps 6-10. warm up of course

Don't forget deadlifts and bent over barbell rows....

PROTEIN, PROTEIN, PROTEIN. Bro, I was the same way. Keep lifting hard and eating right and the muscle will come. Try to eat 8 meals a day consisting of a ****load of protein (1.5-2.0g of protein per body weight) Oh yeah, your way to young to even begin thinking about steroids !!!!

best of luck,

If you do like everyone has told you, you will make progress. And you will be the last to notice improvement. But eventually someone else will notice and all your hard work will payoff. Good luck, Lift hard!
