My failure to gain weight, although I know what I'm doing the work load is too much

Maybe you're overtraining or doing too much cardio.

Maybe you're overtraining or doing too much cardio.

I think since my metabolism is so fast that I am always over training in some sense if my calorie intake isn't high enough, because if I don't eat a lot then I'm often burning weight. My weight training isn't too rigorous, I follow a progressive load weight training table that bases my weekly lifts off my 1 rep max, for both squat and bench press. Then I do a series of other exercises with either 2 sets of 10 or 3 sets of ten depending on the month. Since I play a lot of sports I don't do cardio separately.
