Interesting thing that's happened to me trying to gain mass...

I finally gave up trying to gain mass as I was getting no where. My friend suggested that I worked with what I had and just tried to get very tone. Well I have being doing this kind of workout and now I have gained 7 lbs of muscle! I wasn't able to gain mass before this TRYING to gain mass so I finally give up and look what happens? I gain mass! I'm excited!

Good Job, Bro.

Keep up whatever is working for you

Thank you! The diet I had alone wasn't doing much so I started to simply try to tone up however I added some supplements (weight gainer, protein shakes, creatine) and I guess my body can't gain without supplements.

^^ you could, i mean howd they do it in the 40's and 50's before all that stuff?

but if it works dont fix it, right?

Im kinda similar, I found the harder I tried to stay on a strict diet and lifting program the faster I got burned out.

now I eat what I want within reason, and squeeze in cardio whenever I can and ive changed my physique quite abit in the last 5 weeks.

congrats bro!
