hey this is my frist time posting here iv been lurkin around for about a year now. i almost live by this site. well i have been workin out now about 1 1/2 years now pretty consistant (maybe 2 months off total). im 22 5 10 5 11 ish about 160-165 (morning weigh in). if i eat good that day ill wake up 165 if i dont about 162. i work out 5-6 days a week i do chest/tris back/bi's shoulders/traps legs. i dont do abs or much lower back(i dont know why i just never get around to it but i will soon). Now as for what i eat
6-7 meals a day breakfast start off with either
9:30 shake (if no time) or 5 hard bolied eggs whites(one yoke) can of tuna and an boal of oatmeal.
11:30 12in turkey sud double meat
1:30 one grilled chicken breast some fries some rice side ceser pasta salad
3:30 turky whole wheat wrap
7:00 single scoop shake
7:30 work out
9:30 PW shake
11:30 2 grilled chicken brest vegeis wholewheat rice
12:30 shake with milk 2%(all i have at home)
that is pretty much exactly what i eat almost every
(sometimes a little less but that is my goal)
i drink between 2-5 liters a day

i am lookin to gain weight but seems impossible maybe you guys can help me out.

Buy some plain oatmeal man. Have a few bowls a day. Add it in raw to your shakes. More weight = more carbs. Arms are really well developed. Back and traps need some work. Lookin good bro

[SwoleCat]

What about legs?

Your diet stinks my brutha, check out the diet forum and read the sticky posts atop that page for assistance. You can't gain weight because your approach is all wrong.

Good luck!

Did you have knee surgury or is it just me you knee looks all bruised up....Definately blast the back you could use some width up there and of course work the legs but if you just went under the knife....

[*Alex*]

i think your bf around 12-13% , not 16%. and you need alot more food in yor diet! more carbs, more protien! check out dieat forum. good luck.

[blacklex]

i dont know why you think i need more food if you count the protien in all that there is i would assume 300gram of protien atleast 400grams of carbs but i guess i will work on my diet a bit harder
but with all this in mind why i am not gainin any weight?

also what do you guy do for back i need a good back and bi day

my is like this

wide grip chinups 2-3 sets 12 reps
lat pulldown 2-3 sets 10reps 8reps 6reps
t bar 4 set 10 8 8 6 reps
some back machine at the gym 4 sets 10 8 8 6 reps
rows 4 sets 10 8 8 6 reps
then bi's (what im doing is workin)

what do you think i should do or change
i know dead lifts but it hurts my hamstrings but i will start it soon

I AM FED UP OF BEING SMALL
was deciding if i should do a superdrol cycle
or phara plex or whatever that is what do you guy think?
worth it? (pros/cons)

I understand the knee injury thing, as I ruptured BOTH patella tendons. It's very hard to come back from something like that.

But, diet is key man, you said you have no time to make food, well, that's the biggest key to getting big that there is. You will have to find a way, as eating on the go and things of that nature not only lead to eating the wrong kinds of foods, it sets you up for failure. I see no reason to use any gear or anything if you don't have time to prepare the nutrition neccessary to support that type of endeavor.

blacklex, listen to SwoleCat, as your diet is the key. You need to make time if you want to get big. No need for any type of gear at this point, as it would be a waste. You've got plenty of time for that later after you've learned to eat right and reach your natural potential. There's no magic in a pill or needle. Diet, training, and rest. Follow SwoleCat's advice and check out the diet forums. If you work 6 days a week, on the 7th day, cook and prepare food for your up coming week. Buy a big ass cooler, fill it up with the food you’ve prepared, and carry it around with you. You have to sacrifice and work hard to achieve your goal of getting big. If it was easy everyone would be big, but glancing around most gyms you soon realize that most people just don't have the real desire or heart to reach that goal. Keep working hard young man.
