Any weight gainers out there that actually taste good??
Someone told me to try an alternative to weight gainers. He said to buy milk powder and mix it with milk. Anyone try that?
I’m 5’10 and weigh 134. What do I got to eat? Pasta, rice, bread, milk, steak, take vitamins, cereal, bagels and eggs. Can anyone add to this list?
Thanks.
eat more meat
steak, mmmm
maybe you have a really fast metabolism, some people aren’t supposed to be big, just as some people can’t be thin.

Load up on the carbs, and start with the weights.
I tripped over those laces I never learned to tie, but I got up, and I’ll keep getting up every time.

Red meat is good, also.

weights and diet
dont eat ANYTHING all day, then eat a huge dinner.
lift weights. heavy weights at low reps, doing lighter weights at higher reps will burn fat.
“stay true to you - believe that there’s no one bigger”
PROTEIN SHAKES…they will help…
Best thing I did was eat TYSON chicken breasts and rice almost everyday…you can buy a pack different flavored at BJ WHOLESALEs or COSTCO…
and life heavy with light reps! 8 reps and 3 sets!
You’ll see a difference in about 3 months…
Warning…you will gain a tummy but you can burn that off relatively quick when you hit the cardio training again!

Beer,drink lots of beer.

Weight Gain
I CANT GAIN WEIGHT! HELP!
IM 5FT 11 & WEIGH 11 STONE.
I WANA REACH ABOUT 12 1/2 - 13 STONE.
I EAT LOADS BUT I DONT EVEN PUT ON A POUND!
This post will probably annoy you, but its true. You will have to eat more, or to put it another way “eat more than you burn off”, stick to that quote and you WILL gain weight, if you want to gain muscle mass, lift heavy and make it 3 sets of 5-8. I had trouble gaining weight untill recently - and yeah im an ectomorph like you, i pretty much had to double what i eat in a day. If Ironfist replies to this post he’ll be a great help - he was to me, thanks Ironfist!
Want to gain wait? THEN START EATING YOU SKINNY RAIL!
Here’s the program I use when I want to put on a few extra pounds: Eat until your belly is so extended it sounds like a watermelon when you thump it. Sit on the couch and watch Oprah. Beat off to more internet porn in the process until you’re so fatiqued you can’t even walk to the bathroom but have to relieve yourself in a 7-11 Big Gulp cup. Before you know it you’ll be slappin’ on pig fat quicker than Richard Simmons can gobble a meat whistle.
Also: See the Atkins Diet thread for my advice on how to lose those extra pounds when you become too tubby.
Eat more than a handsized portion whenever you eat. Eat five times a day if you can manage. Don’t fully chew your food before you swallow it.
I don’t think 3 sets of 5-8 reps will add mass to most people…

In order to gain weight, first you should estimate you daily caloric needs. When you have that done, you should eat about 800 calories more than you need per day. Also, this increase in calories should be spread out over 5 meals per day. If you don’t eat 5 meals per day, than do it over how ever many meals you do eat. However, it is a good idea to eat five meals a day. Another thing to do is when you are not doing your core workout do nothing. This is a good time to lay around and watch tv because if you are up and about then you’re gonna burn more calories and therefore not gain weight. These are some basics, if you need anymore help than just leave another response or contact me.
More calories brother man.
Calories alone will just make you fat 
You need a good muscle building workout as well so that the calories you eat get direction

Get married. Works a treat.

HEy ironfist, i remember taking your advise from a while ago and im sure 3x8 was mentioned.if not i must’ve misunderstood. What reps-sets should i be doing then? 3x4 and lifting heavier? BTW I’m 17 5 foot 8 and 126lbs, and I was like 117 at the start of the year,so i AM gaining weight and all,but now I’m not sure if its “good” weight as it were.
i worked out hardcore for many years…mostly i ate tons of noodles,tuna fish ,peanut butter and red meat…also drank protien powder and took amino acid,you need too workout heavy for mass and burn out for cuts…i always ate right after lifting and when ever possible…its hard at first but you get used to it…drink lots of water also..
Help putting on weight…
Hello. My friend and I are quite skinny people. Both 17yo, 125pounds, he is 5’7, i’m 5’6. We eat as much as we can (not on any diet, we eat junk). We seem to burn all of it very fast. both hyper-active, always need to be doing something. We don’t put on any weight at all. We exercise a bit, few weights a week, basketball at lunch, badminton weekends etc…
How to ‘grow sideways’ as we’re very light. Eat more carbohydrates? Fatty foods? heavish weights/low reps? I eat heaps of fruit/veg a day, and about 1.5-2 liters of water a day normally (50-70oz).
Any help would be appreciated.
thanks
