I need to GAIN 35 POUNDS HELP!!!

[Madsicilian]

Bill, most of my life i have been realitively skinny. I always took tons of different Weight Gainers and worked out hard. And still remained pretty skinny but ripped (dont use WeightGainer). Not what i wanted. I have to agree with JDarty6173, you need to consume 2 grams of protein per pound of bodyweight (drink alot of water for your kidneys). I did this and immediately started making huge gains! Below is a sample diet of what I eat daily:

6 egg whites & 2 Servings of Oatmeal
Protein Shake
Chicken Breast and Yellow Rice
Protein Shake
2 Tuna Sandwiches (Fat Free Mayo)

Workout

Chicken Sandwich & 1 Yogart
Protein Shake

I hope this helps. Work real heavy with low reps. I would only work each muscle group once per week (Mon-Fri) and rest on the Weekends.

I went from 140lbs to 191lbs (51 lbs.) in 2 years with just Heavy and Intense workouts and a good diet. Good luck, you can do it.

Wow, those are some immpressive gains! Was much of that body fat or are you still pretty lean?

 

[Madsicilian]

The 51lbs is mostly muscle. I am not as ripped as before, so yes i did gain some body fat, but not much. My current bodyfat is 10%, not as low as I would like, but still not bad. I am a webdesigner so i sit on my a$$ all day, this doesn't help my bf%. I hope to have it down soon, i never use to do cardio but have recently started to get my bf% lower.

How tall are you?
Thats damn immpressive man.. are you natural?
I do lazy computer work all day as well, and get some good resting time in... its good for recovery.. but bad for stayin lean...

 

[Madsicilian]

I am 5'10" 191 lbs. now. I eat really good, but like you said working at a computer all day makes it hard to stay lean. I eat very low fat. But the problem is inactivity. I am all natural, i have only taken supplements (Protein, Creatine, ZMA). I take working out so serious, maybe too serious, i write down everything i eat and calculate my protein intake, calories, etc. I also write down all my workouts. I dont have any current pics, hope to take some soon, but here is one of my back at 172 lbs.(1 Year ago), not that big here:

What is your weight and height?

 

[DrBones]

I'm 5'10, low 190's.. I'm guessing my BF is around 12% right now.. havn't gotten tested to be sure... Your definitely leaner than me in that picture!
I was down to 178 pretty lean in the summer and then bulked to 200+
I never did any legs, or much back work until this summer, so I have been gaining a decent amount of weight throughout those body parts recently
I've been training on and off since I was 16 due to shoulder issues and a knee issue.. I'm 21 now and have been back at it really hard since march... I'm hoping for 190lbs less than 10% BF by summer and 200 at the same bodyfat for the following summer... without gear..
We'll see how that goes...

 

[Madsicilian]

Did you bulk up over 200+ from gear? I have never tried any gear, and probably wont, but I am tempted to try 1-AD (prohormones).

 

[DrBones]

Nope, no gear, never touched the stuff... I put on quite a bit of fat and water though.. I was taking creatine... Made me retain a ton of water...
I ate like a famine was coming, I didn't look very good though... too chunky for my liking..

Ok well I've started to take weight gainer as well, all it does is leave me bloated. I'm also looking to gain 30 -40 lbs, within the next 5 months, all natural... I've gained 6 Lbs this week, but it looks my stomach is like colemans...haha, well maybe not that etched but its bloated.
Can someone explain why the weight gainer is bad? Or at least, not good. I'm useing Prolab Nlarge 2
also a whey protein, creatine, glutamine.
At the begingin of my bluking phase right before i started i was 6' , 210, 13% bf (more now 3months in to bulking only gained 10 lbs since i started bulking, and most came after the short prolab nlarge taking)
I also eat like crazy, but i would love to put on massive weight like my friend that posted this thread.
any other suggestions for gaining weight?


all natural...

Lots of compound movements, get your deads, squats, bench and power cleans dialed in tight. Everytime you workout eat like it is your last meal on this earth. Down lots of dextrose (80g +) post workout with a good whey like isopure. Before you hit the rack, eat some protien like chicken, tuna or cottage cheese. Sleep BIG.
