Sucks tho, cause ive tried working out and dieting and eating shakes and whatnot, nothing really works. i gain a little bit of muscle but not much, i think i need to do some hardcore biking and climbing to make some core strength.




You're just like me dude. I can't gain weight(or height for that matter )! Being so small use to drive me nuts to noooo end. Growing up I was always, always out side (my mom would have to drag me inside for bed lol). Getting into high school my life changed to cars, working out, girls. Piriod. Other people would be playing video games(never liked them) or doing drugs, I would be working out. I've tried every thing I can think of... I don't think I could physically eat anymore than I already do. Hell I'd be willing to bet money (or maybe a 3L )I out eat the majority of the people on this board.(Friends always joke instead of getting the beer or week munchies, I get the 15 min munchies) People say just keep at it so I do, eventually lose motivation, then a month or two latter I notice my abs and chest diminishing and start working out like mad again (thank go for muscle memory). Just a big stupid cycle, BUT I'm not losing motivation this time! So this time around I'm critiquing my diet even more and working on proper form.

Curling 50lbs at your body weight is just going to equal pain.




lol No need worry about me man, I'm well rounded thanks. I do low reps to work fast twitch fibers for strength as well as high reps to work slow twitch fibers.

Edit: Sorry missed your post platinum_drew

I go to failure, which is usually 5...maybe 6. When I able to confidently to 10 or so reps of w/e weight I'm on I add 5lb. I can do 3 or 4 reps with 50. But I'm getting there!
