When I gained good weight for baseball most of my meals were....

Oatmeal
eggs
peanut butter
fruit

Veggies
Brown Rice
Beans
Meat

Protein shakes with dextrose and liquid fish oil. I would be stuffed by 5 pm and I would continue to eat. I'm amazed when ppl say they can't gain weight. Simple solution: increase calories. Obviously, in the perfect world that would mean I'd eat 10 600 calorie honey buns and call it a day. But, you know what I mean.

Wtf.. that is big as shit for someone that only lifts off and on and has less than 10% bodyfat... You must be strong as shit or have massive bones.

Fish oil
How old is that article Monger? I thought I read something recently where he was advocating flax, but emphatically NOT flax oil. Maybe I'm thinking of someone else, but I thought that was from a recent interview with him.

well the superpump gets me all amped up and into the mood to workout.. and the leukic makes my muscles 2x as pumped by the end of a workout...I'm no expert and have no clue if this translates into muscle growth, but it "seems" like its doing something...the money isn't a big issue cuz I only take like 1/3 the recommended serving and it lasts a while..But someone said that it would be harder to gain weight while taking the superpump..>??? Why is that..???

again thanx for the help here guys!

Oh god. Number one the super pump has a diuretic in it, that WILL NOT HELP with weight gain. Then the "pump" pumps have not a damn thing to do with getting stronger or getting bigger. You penis gets "pumped" all the time yet doesn't grow over time. Blood flow is not indicitive of growth.

Not to mention you don't ask what veggies or healthy fats you should be using, or what to replace the bread with etc. Instead you worry about your "supps" which won't do anything if your diet is not in check, which it isn't.

I mean really why ask a damn question if you don't want to listen to what people are telling you. I am done on this thread, and done kicking a dead horse.

LOL. Ya know, Vedic, I appreciate the advice you've given me and this is in no way meant to be an insult, but every time I see this pic I can't help but think of you.

hahaha ya that is true.


However its pretty simple. These threads have been coming up a lot lately, either "I can't gain weight" or "I can't loose weight" yet everytime I open one or Mike or Monger etc, its always the same thing. Diet sucks or workout sucks, or a combination of both. yet everytime they continue to worry about their precious supplements. Supplements are just that, a supplement to a sound diet and training program. This guys diet is horrible, and well he is worrying about a diuretic and a overpriced supplement.
