[youngbodybuilder]

Im 17 and have gain about 6kg over 7months but im findining it extreamily hard to gain more weight i cant seem to get over 75kg im eating lots and going to the gym 5 to 6 times a week can someone tell me what i need to do to gain more weight??

[Daniil]

Maybe "5 to 6 times" is too much. Try just three for a month.

[Luigi]

i bet your not eating that much, post up a sample of your days diet to get some decent feedback :nod:

Shortly you will receive a list of twice that amount of food to eat!

Get some meat or protein in your breakfast and both your snacks.

Cant be arsed writing you a diet plan but if i was you id be eating at minimum 750gm of lean meat a day as well as my gym protein shake.

If you know how to count the calories get around 3500 in, if your not putting on weight its not the training its the eating.

Im trying to gain too mate...Im eating truckloads \:D/

Typical is this:

AM - 10 egg whites cooked maybe even a yolk, 300gram steak, bowl of oatmeal with sultanas

AM - 180gr tin of tuna with 2 rice wafers or 2 w/meal pitas

AM - same

Lunch - 2 chicken breasts ( a nother good load of protein like a doz chicken drumsticks, another steak, a bowl of mince + some mixed veg, fruit or pasta/rice

PM - Tuna again with a couple of rice wafers

PM - Another protein meal with some more rice wafers, pasta, fruit

Pm - Have a shake before bed

Eat lots, eat clean, and unless your really skinny I try to avoid the fat too much and seldom do I break diet.

Check out some of the work out journals and see what you find in them, check out the diets section and dont be afraid to ask questions. Peeps here and on the other sutes have been more than helpful to me and im sure they'll will help you.

Eat up now :pfft:

Right on target Luigi!!....as a 17 year old everything you are eating you are burning with that confused diet.

Get out there and hit those main core exercises;

1) squats

2) military press

3) flat bench

4) bent over barbell rowing

and work everthing else around it.

You probably could train 4-5 days a week but you have to take carbs,carbs and more carbs in throughout the day.

Keep it simple,basic but intense and get yourself some heavygainer 50/50 carb/protein. The extra kgs will pack on and with your metabolism it should be good bulk.

Yea, an don't worry if you can't stomach much to start with, as you will adjust an be able to eat more. Just make sure you push your self.

[Bazza]

Eveybodys pointing you in the right direction here....as a younger guy you are going to have a naturally higher metabolism and therefore burn calories faster. Just make sure they are not crap calories.Eat more food, perhaps make your training a little less aerobic, as you haven't posted any sort of training info, so perhaps you are doing heaps of high rep exercises, as opposed to doing lower sets and reps and incrementally increasing our weights.

I agree with the guys saying to cut down on the days per week, make sure you are getting plenty of rest, at the beginning and even now I find that its a fight between my enthusiasm to constantly be in the gym swinging the iron and my bodies need for recovery.

Two on one off worked well for me, still gets you in the gym 4-5 times a week but gives your body a chance to recover and most importantly grow.

Make sure you still eat like an animal on rest days.
