    Smile 22 year old Newbie looking for advice

    Hello All

    I just recently started working out about 3 months ago. Im 6'2, 180 Pounds, yes im very skinny and tall. My goal has been to gain weight and become Cut. Well the past 3 months, i havent gained much at all, I was on a few weight gainers, protein shakes, and creatine. Nothing seeemed to have much of a result. So that being said, im moving onto something different. Can someone please guide me on where to begin, and help me figure out whats best for me? Thank you

    and just a general job description, I do drywall, so i constatly lift heavy items, if that comes to any help, thanks all

    Dude does your diet look like this ? Because if it doesnt then thats your problem

    Meal 1: Pro/Carb

    8 Egg Whites, 1 Scoop Of Whey Protein, 1 cup oatmeal

    50g protein / 54g carbs / 5g fat



    Meal 2: Pro/Fat

    Lean Ground Beef, ¼ cup swiss cheese, green veggies

    55g protein / 2g carbs / 20g fat



    Meal 3: Pro/Carb

    Chicken Breast, 1 and a half cup Brown Rice

    55g protein / 64g carbs / 3g Fat
    **Disclaimer: Meal 3 can be a pro/fat meal if you are ultra sensitive to carb intake.


    Meal 4: Pro/Fat

    2 Cans of Tuna, 1 Tbsp Full Fat Mayonnaise, Veggies

    60g protein / 2g carbs / 13g Fat



    Workout


    Meal 5: PWO Nutrition

    2 Scoops Whey Protein / 80g of Dextrose

    40g protein / 80g carbs / 0g fat



    Meal 6: PPWO

    Boneless Skinless Chicken Breast, ½ cup Brown Rice (Measured Uncooked)

    50g protein / 70g carbs / 3g fat



    Meal 7: Pro/Fat

    Lean Protein of your choice, 2 Tbsp Natural Peanut Butter
    50g protein / 5g carbs / 18g fat



    Meal 8: Before Bed

    3 Scoops of Whey Protein, 1.5 Tbsp. Flax Seed Oil

    60g protein / 3g carbs / 21g Fat


    That turns into approximately 420 grams protein, 250 grams Carbs, and 83 grams of fat. This is roughly 3500 calories

    haha yea my diet is definetly not like that. right now im starting off with

    Cytogain at 900 calories per serving x3

    ******* creatine 20g a day

    Muscle Milk 54g Protein x2

    Cell Mass Recovery

    and sticking to tuna every day for lunch and before i hit the bed

    other than that i stay away from junk food, and crap thats not good for you

    The problem is, i have a hard time keeping everything in. I usually hit the bathroom 2ce a day witch isnt helping me out, Not sure wats going on

    and I dont eat eggs, so i cant use that

    Welcome to AR

    like Kale stated, If you are NOT eating a complete meal consisting of Quality protein from WHOLE foods, good Carbs, adn good Fat EVERY 2.5-3 hours, then that is your growth problem.

    If you seriously want to grow, then you have to make the commitment to keeping track of your calories so you know whether to eat more or less.
    6-8 meals a day MINIMUM plus HEAVY lifting, and you will grow !!

    Check out the diet forum for Bulking diets to get you started.
    Supplemental Protein is fine, but it should be an added thing not a main part of your daily consumption
