Default Weight gaining. - 05-10-2005, 01:55 PM

Some of you may know I am planning on joining the RAF unfortunately I need to put on 1.5 stone or in my medical i will be automatically classed as medically unfit.

I need ideas on how to put on this weight. I'm currently trying protein drinks and going to the gym. But this is a slow process, and wonder if anyone here has been in the same position and what you did about it?

I have a very fast metabelism so I burn off most of my food very quickly and I also cycle everywhere which will probably burn off the rest of my food.

Instead of gum, chew bacon.
Instead of bread, use PopTarts.

your kidding right ? IF" your metabolism is as nutz as you say it is, you have to do the following,

EAT greasy greasy foods such as lots of fish & chips, Mcdonalds, Protein shakes,

SLEEP less, or OVER sleep your ass.

This is not healthy weight though..... This is just pure fatass.

Oh i forgot to mention I actually need to be FIT to get through my basic training!

Working out less? Muscle weighs more than fat so going to the gym is supposed to help you put weight on.

ok, here's what you can do:

either eat buffalo wings, cheese steaks be merry and die of a heart attack, but the food was good.

OR


they have like powerbars these weight gain deals, but thye taste like shit and are somewhat expensive. but they deliver fast results.

if i were you, i'd go with the first choice.

just work out like 10 hours a week, do a lot of cardio and lift more heavy weights and eat a lot of chicken/turkey/lean steak.

I'd just stick to eating healthily and working out with weights. The idea of putting on one and a half stone in fat by eating fatty shit doesn't appeal to me. hake:

How tall are you and how much do you weigh?

You might be an ectomorph body type......gaining muscle is hard work. :-(


1) Hit the weights. Remember, resting your muscles is important so don't go insane in the gym. Rest your muscles totally the day after you've worked out.

2) Eat more than breakfast, lunch and dinner. Try to squeeze in a wee snack here and there (something healthy), and when you do make sure there's some protein in the snack.

3) Buy Whey protein and have it twice a day.

4) Eat lots of tuna, chicken, beef etc. If you get fed up of eating meat try tofu - it's packed with protein!

5) Listen to Arkan's advice when he replies to you.
