What peoplehave to realise aswell is that everyone's genetics are different, and growth in certain areas will vary in terms of how quick you will build/define that area, with me, my strength goesup quick because diet is good, but my chest grows the quickest.

My workout's usually are

Shoulders and Legs:

5 shoulder exercises 3 sets, squats 5 sets, and lunges or calf raises 3 sets.

Chest and Bicep:

4 chest exercises of 3 sets, along with front leaning dips, 3 bicep exercises.

Back and tricep:

5 back exercises for all the areas, upper, mid, lower, inc lat pull downs and deadlifts in that with pull-ups... 3 tricep exercises.

All depends what works for each individual, sure training is great, if your diet's good and protein intake is high, your muscles will grow, no doubt.

I was in a very similar position to you a few months ago.

It's definately nutrition that sets you on the right path. Its not eating healthy, its eating more.

If you dont eat alot in a day.. your muscles have nothing to use to feed on and grow.

Id recommend doubling your calorie intake a day (only if your exercising though!) otherwise it turns into fat which sends you backwards rather than forwards. I wouldnt concentrate on what you eat; rather than how much you eat. Obviously try and be healthy and eat plenty of protein which stimulates growth.

Also, purchase some protein supplement; and take around 3 times a day for added nutrition.

Make sure you find a weight lifting exercise program that involves heavy lifting with low amounts of reps to build muscle; rather than tone it.. that way your physique doesnt look the same.

Its a lot of hard work, but you can do it. I used to be 60kg at 6 foot 3 and now im edging 70kg in a matter of months.

Good luck buddy.
Damn man, It think I have almost an identical physique. I measure 6 foot 3 as well, but maybe i'm a bit broader. My issue now is that I way around 70 but I'm still not as big as I'd like to be, especially in the packs area i'd like to grow.

You also need to realise that when your muscles burn this doesnt mean stop this means work harder until you LITERALLY cant lift another rep...

From the point of when your muscles burn to the point to when you can barely do half a rep is where your muscles rip, making the protein you eat rebuild in this rip and create larger muscles, this is from what ive gone by so far and its worked for me

And i have very skinny Genetics so its extremely hard to build my forearms aside from the rest of my body to keep it into proportion!

So start of doing regular hammer curls BUT NOT AS MUCH AS YOUR OTHER WORKOUTS to eventually get them to a nice size, and also do wrist twists with the barbell, not too heavy or your wrists may snap, lol

Don't concentrate on too many arm exercises, core exercises will improve your arms, heavy lifts - power, strength and size.

Ill add that you NEED core strength more than anything else, it helps stabilize the body so that the activated muscles can do more of what they are supposed to do....

ignore what these guys are saying. Senior year for me i was 6'2" for baseball and weighed 165. i needed to gain weight to appeal to scouts. I took bsn weight gainer and nitric oxide pills(amp you up maximizing your blood flow enabling you to actually perform and be motivated while you're at the gym... and are completely legal.) after taking these 2 things i gained 20lbs in about 2 months.

If you really want to get big take m-drol if you can get ahold of it and if you are down for that kind of shit. Im in the mid of my cycle and gained about 20 lbs of basically all muscle and now get glared at by girls at the beach compared to before where they really didnt even notice me. just make sure you take a post cycle blocker pill.

I had personal trainer, also a close friend, who helped me put on size and he kept everything simple. To gain size rapidly and remain in a state of natural health follow these simple guidelines:

- I managed to gain over a stone in weight and really bulk up in 2 months.


1. Stop drinking alcohol! - I had tried to gain size many times before, and never sacrificed alcohol. My personal trainer stressed the importance of this to speed up results and it really proved to work. For the months I wasn't drinking I felt extremely healthy and managed to achieve a lot more. If you can't have a night out without drinking, either avoid bars and night clubs, and go cinema, restaurants etc. Or focus on day game during this time and use the evenings to work on income generating projects at home. This is what I did. http://mileshayden.com/making-money-online/

2. Drink lots of water - Water is like your bodys natural fuel. Drink little and often. This is key for any form of diet, and will make you more alert and active, and always keep you switched on. Take the Volvic challenge!

3. Cut out processed food and fast food = junk food! - You don't get enough nutrients and goodness out of processed food, and I don't even need to go there with fast food.

4. Balanced Diet - Eat lots of natural proteins, don't rely on the shakes - tuna and chicken are rich in protein. Your body will need plenty of fuel aswell, so eat plenty of carbohydrates, preferably brown pasta and rice. A carb drink such as Lucozade sport can increase energy levels at the right time. I was advised to have half a bottle after workout, and then the other half the following morning.

5. Eat plenty of fruit and veg - at least 5 portions a day, and drink lots of fruit juices aswell.

6. Protein shakes. Syntha 6 is a great protein drink because its 6 different types of protein. You should have a shake first thing in the morning, and then straight after workouts. Do NOT try to overdo it with the protein, it can cause protein poisoning, liver damage and bring you out in spots or blemishes.


7. Workout 3 or 4 times a week and stick to a routine. - Discipline is key. Don't miss a session because you cant be bothered and then try to make up for it by doing too much the following week.

8. Routine - work back, chest and shoulders - one muscle group each session. 4 different exercises, 4 sets on each, 8-10 reps each set. Before each session I warmed up with 5-10 mins on the treadmill, and at the end of each session did some crunches and abs workout. Do an extra day every couple of weeks to do your legs.

Avoid sessions working on your arms, because your arms will be worked in other sessions. And if you punish your arms too much, you won't be able to lift a lot elsewhere when working your back, chest, shoulders.


9. Rest properly. Do not workout everyday, you will burn out and hinder the effects. Healthy sleep is essential. Get to bed/sleep before 12 and get 8 hours every night.



* After 2 months following your own routine adhering to these guidelines, I GUARANTEE you will put on size, and have a much improved physique. You will also feel a lot healthier and be aware of this. It helped my game in this way to as I found I was always on-the-ball, and had better responses as I could think fast. It helped to cancel out those awkward pauses when you run out of material. Natural health is like workout for the brain and is vastly under estimated in game. I personally recommend adapting your lifestyle as you could improve your game by up to 20% by leading a healthy lifestyle.

Sorry I disagree, legs are important to train, atleast once a week if you can.

Also, taking whey is not bad, whey is one of the best forms of protein.

it has to do with mostly what your eating..
do 1 muscle a day.. ex
day 1-chest
day 2-shoulders/legs
day 3-back
day 4-biceps/triceps
pick 4-5 excersises forday and do 5 sets on your fisst set do 20 on your last do aim for 3 and for the sets in the middle do 6-8 do them slow and do the excersise right
use bars.. not free weights
rest for a min and a half after every set

eat alot of carbs and proteins.. it wont hurt to get extra fats too.. take fish oils
drink weight gaining based protein shakes..(they have alot of carbs in them)

and if you really want to get gains fast.. take spawn or a different type of testostrone booster..
good luck
