BG Fitness Fanatics II: We Work Out

[BerenTebogo]

Fuck you guys who have trouble putting on weight.

Serious question though: For those having trouble putting on weight with calorie surplus, what are your ages?

When I was like < 24 I could eat 3-4k calories a day and never gain a lb. Now that I'm 29 though and after too many years of abusing my body with MMOs I find it very easy to put on fat.

26, but my dad is 56 and he loses weight if he doesn't stuff his face so i think i am in for the hardgainer long haul.

Can get basically the same effect with some combination of milk, protein powder, peanut butter, oats, and/or granola tossed into a blender... and feel much better. Can add in other delicious stuff too (berries, bananas, ice cream for even more calories, etc). Won't be as calorie dense as gainer, but it's easy to get ~500+ calories in a shake.

I was doing this for a while. Milk,banana,black berries, oats, protein powder, half and half, peanut butter for about 1700 calories per shake and chugging it while at computer. Was nice for a while but dairy messes with me too much and i was tired of getting acne breakouts and feeling like i was going to shit myself.

Eating food and gaining weight is a nightmare and i hate it.

It's even more of a nightmare when you have to work 9 hours a day and have to either bring something boring/"meal prep"/or buy something. That's why I want a true meal replacement like soylent. My issue with protein shakes is you have to drink them after you make them or they get weird.

In my dream world I have a personal chef that makes me something delicious whenever I feel like it.

On the other hand, I'd rather struggle to put on weight than struggle to keep it off.

I try to remind myself this when I get annoyed with the scale.

Just turned 25. I could easily put weight on my stomach though if I ate junk food/desserts and wasn't active. Happened to me last xmas...

was super excited for soylent when i first saw the kickstarter, exploring their website though there are a TON more options for bodybuilding/gaining/cutting specific homemade soylents with their costs listed on the site.

Have you tried any? I avoided these in the past because they seemed like too much trouble but browsing now some are easy to source all the ingredients.

[thetruepandagod]

Never got around to it due to laze but i might attempt to give it another shot.

I'm 27 now, and started working out at 23. The last major 'bulk phase' I referenced in the previous post was at 24.

I hate seeing cute girls at the gym with guys on the Smith machine. Like, you deserve a man that can squat properly

31 here. Putting weight is not an issue. The only issue is whether the fat to mass ratio is 9 to 1 or 1 to 9. Usually it is at least 7 to 3...


And damn CS with CS drug gene

[Celeras]

Holy shit, are you me?

5'11" 155 (on a good day). I started out at 135 (about a year and a half ago) and it's ridiculously hard for me to gain weight. I stuff myself as much as possible but going past 2500 calories is hard for me since I try to eat somewhat healthy (no fastfood besides lots of pizza, etc)

Edit: About a month ago:

Spoiler: show

Apparently I am.. kind of look like you too. Will post a pic later.

I'm 29 going on 16.

So. Sort related to weight loss. About 6 years ago I was 250. Started going to the gym/dieted, lost about 30 lbs, was 210. Fast forward, this year I was back to almost 240.

Said I can't go into my 40's (I'm 33) overweight.

Started 90x and diet. 6 months later, my current weight is 188. I've dropped almost 3 pants sizes, went from a XXL to a L in most shirts/sweaters. Everyone tells me how great I look, or I'm too skinny, etc.

Recently started a 2nd job, can't work out when I like anymore, gains are diminishing rapidly, however I've kept the weight off due to the 2nd job I am guessing, and keeping a caloric deficit.

Question is, when I look in the mirror I still look like that same 240 lb self. I've taken pictures, I've seen the progress, and it's amazing. However I still see it in the mirror. How crazy is that shit? It's the strangest feeling smaller stuff fitting, but I feel/look the same to myself. I've accepted in my head that I'm thinner, but I guess my mind can't get over the fuckery or something.

[Moss]

was gonna say body dysmorphic disorder but that doesn't quite fit the definition

[Draygon]

Is there any particular reason my upper arms (around my triceps more or less) get red and extremely itchy whenever I lift heavy? It's only when I'm pushing myself, and is almost instantaneous. It's happened for years, I dunno.

[Osede]

i had it once on my palm, after the pull day because i tried yo do heavy pulling without strap. During the night my hand just hot and itchy and last for two days...
