K so is any of you guys (and girl), that's doing this training exercise, trying to gain weight or just lose some?

Cuz I would be interested in gaining some and I've tried everything* and nothing seems to be working for me. I have amazing muscle tone, you can see all of my muscle groups, but very little mass.
you mean you're so skinny that your muscle structure is showing..

just workout lots and you will be eating like a madman, then you ought to gain weight.

You won't gain muscle mass at home,at least not what you want,I've been doing this for more than 4 years and learned alot of things which I wish I knew back then,I know what I'm saying so do what I say and don't do the same mistakes as I did.

I'm going to edit this post in regards to bodybuilding,so refresh in a while.

First of all get a gym membership,and don't tell me it's expensive it's under 100 RON / month for a full gym membership - sauna+weight training+cardio+whatever that gym can provide.
Find a good and solid meal plan.I don't give a damn what anyone says,Nutrition is always #1 , not training,not genetics,not steroids,not anything,a good body is made in the kitchen more than at the gym.You will not grow if you don't eat,don't believe me?Train 3months with 2 to 3 meals per day and then train 2-3 months with 5( min )to 6-7meals per day + supplements and you will see a huge difference.
Find a good workout plan,a balanced one,not a "fake" one used by the almighty pros from the Olympia. No,get something a regular man would use.Not a 300LBS monster that eats 7 times a day (7000calories) and Injects two types of steroids + HGH and does insulin and so on. I recomend a 5 day split. I train Monday Tuesday and wednesday is a rest day,then I train Thurs,Fri,Sat - Sunday rest day again. Aim for 2 muscle groups such as Chest + Bicep for example. Or Chest + Tricep. Switch it up depending on what you want to achieve,bigger arms,bigger chest,whatever you want. Always leave a muscle group AT LEAST 3 days to recover. Legs are trained once a week for obvious reasons,It's a huge muscle group and your body will not be able to recover in 3 days. DON'T SKIP LEG DAYS. for the love of god please do not ignore the legs,You will look like shit,don't go on the premise that I just want to get my upper body ready and then I'll catch up with the legs,you won't and you never will if you ignore them.Plus,you will look like a complete retard.
Find some decent priced supplements. Creatine and Protein powder does wonders especially when you're starting. However,remember that a supplement is just a supplement ,it does not replace food and never will.Like I said,you won't do shit if you don't eat,and when I say eat I mean alot,don't tell me well I eat alot,I'm 10000% sure you don't. They don't have to be expensive as fuck to work,Just get some creatine and a protein powder ( Try to find a protein powder that has ~65% carbs 23-30% protein etc).


Leave the ego at the door. Don't compare yourself to god knows who in the gym,results come in time,it's a waiting game. Don't look in the mirror every single day and expect to see something cause you won't see shit,you should see results every 3 months or more. Up to 6months.

Train smart , warm up 10 minutes and only after that start the routine,the warm up consists of mostly joints and a little bit of blood flow before training.Don't use momentum,such as bouncing the bar off your chest while bench pressing,or arching your back while you do bicep curls,it's cheating,you always want to isolate the muscle group you train as much as you want not work 3muscle groups at the same time. Make sure you have a good slow tempo,control the weight,don't bench the bar up and then let it almost fall on you,keep the tension on the muscle.

The workout routine should consist of ~5 days out of 7 . For example. I Train Mon+Tue then Wed Is a rest day Thu+Fri+Sat then Sun is a rest day again. Do 4 to exercises per muscle group with 3 to 4 or 5 sets if you want. Dont' train like a dumbass,such as: you're going to the gym,it's monday,you train chest,you go and do 25 sets at the flat bench press and you're done. That's wrong. It should be like this *WARMUP* 4sets of flat bench press,4sets of inclinde,3-4sets decline,then dumbbell flyes again 4 sets or so. Use both barbells and dumbbells , generally free weights will always be better than machines,machines don't let you active some body groups properly .Now,Muscle mass = heavy weights + low reps (6-10) - Tone = 10-15 reps moderate weight. Always work your way up to your max,if you can bench 60kgs(I'm 100% sure this is going to be your max if you did not train before) you're going to do it like this. the barbell is about 20kgs. You're going to add 1 plate of 10kgs on each side. Your 4 set exercise should look like this 40 kgs 50 kgs 60 kgs ( if you do 10 reps and you still like you can do 5 more the next set add 10 kgs more ) 70kgs if you can bench those 70kgs 7 times out of 10,and here comes the other thing,find a spotter,there has to be someone in the gym that can spot you for those last 2-3 reps,train to failure,results come from those last 2-3 reps,those are the ones that decide your physique.

In Short Train smart,get your 8 hours of sleep,the body grows when you sleep,not in the gym,don't skip your meals,eat 5 times a day + a protein shake before bed. If you work and can't find enough time to eat,get that protein shake with you and drink it halfway through your work shift. WARNING! get the powder,don't mix it at home and then try to drink it,it's going to taste / smell like a dead animal if you leave it for some hours in there.

And don't bullshit me with But I don't have money to buy suplements+a gym membership,yes you do,you spend more than half of your sallary on ciggars+booze+god knows what you guys smoke.Supplements are 200 ron / month tops if you know what to get + 100 RON max gym membership. Sums up at 300 RON,I'm 100% sure you spend way more on ciggars alone than on these 2 combined. After a while when you fall for it,it becomes a lifestyle.

If I forgot something I'll re-edit.

Or you can just ignore everything and do crossfit which won't work for shit.lulz.

P.S HOLY WALL OF TEXT.

Caught you before you could edit. :D


Problem is I used to workout a lot as a kid (basketball and karate at the same time at some point), but I've never had this "urge" to eat a lot. Also I'm a really slow eater and I hate wasting time eating.

And yeah I'm skinny, but it's not only the lack of body fat that "is showing my muscle structure", I actually have muscle "fiber" (as we call it in romanian). The point is I actually have my muscles defined, but no mass and very little body fat.

When you're skinny, there's something wrong with you if you don't have your muscle groups defined.

had same problem as you until i was forced to workout like hell as well as doing physical work, every time after i finish i go and eat fast like a madman.
you need to workout until you feel you reached your limit then continue pass it.

I get bored easily. :(

since she is willing, she either need a personal trainer to keep force exercise her or a bf that she would want to look good for :)
I just need to stop being lazy.

K so is any of you guys (and girl), that's doing this training exercise, trying to gain weight or just lose some?

____________
*except: eating more, drinking protein shakes for more than 1 week, working out at a gym for more than 1 week, having a nutritionist give me a good diet, eating more regularly etc.
I'm not doing px or some fancy training exercise routine and I am not trying to gain or lose anything. :D I would just like to be a bit more toned, cause i have 0 muscles atm.

My guess is you're far away from both of'em so it doesn't matter for you right now. Big weights + lots of cardio and fitness until you get those muscles, then you can cut it low. You won't get like the second guy unless you eat shitloads of protein.

Also p90x3 is great for shit like that

How HellFire said, train smart. All three parts are important, no matter if you want to loose weight or gain muscle mass you must:
1) Eat properly
2) Rest properly
3) Train properly

All these factors are important. I know that the eating part is a bit tricky, at least for me it is, but trying harder to find the best solution does wonders :)
