    Man, I used to do that but eatting before bed gives me nightmares. I don't know why, but if I eat anything right before I go to sleep then I have some whack@ss dreams.

    Actually, I think anything before bed time will suffice as long as your metabolism has slowed down enough. I'm still of a small frame cause my metabolism hasn't slowed down. I should work out, but never seem to actually do it.

    When I was smaller the sandwic thing worked out well for me. Now I am 6'3" and weigh 250lbs and I take a coule protein shakes and I use nano x9 and creatine for suplements.To some that seems like alot but I also work out everyday.

    protein shakes + amino acids will work well as long as u continue to work out, the amino acids are a basis for the protein to build off of. just go up to GNC and talk to them.

    too much protein can never hurt as long as you work out right?
    the worst it can do is just make you fat if you stay inactive

    peanut thing before bed is good.

    after a hard workout. stretch out your muscles. afterwards, take alot of protein through meals. your body will utilize the protein as it rebuilds the muscles you work out, and it'll help gain mass and become leaner

    alot of it is diet. eat more. work out more. increase weights over time. dont rush it. meat is the most important. but dont eat more and workout less because you feel fatter.

    go down off of chastain road near that walmart and across the street go to the place called "Supplement Depot", there should be a Toucan Tan next to it.

    guys there were very friendly and i asked them to direct me towards a muscle gainer.

    the best they said is called Total Mass, but it was like 45$ but the container was huge. i opted for the second best thing called Russian Bear, it was 30$ and lasts like 2 weeks

    the stuff is hardcore, 5 scoops in a gallon of milk is 5,000 calories, which you would not take anyways but theres an idea for you. i'm taking about 1-2 scoops a day now, one in morning and one after i work out. and then 100% whey protein, one scoop in the middle of the day when i get home from school.

    that along with eating as much as you can and being sure to work out everyday, or on 3 day cycles and 1 day off (my plan) seems like the best way to go

    just sharing some insight

    spreading out meals is to lose weight so your body can digest faster and spread out food consumption

    just eat all the time and take supplements

    Muscle Milk, Total Mass, Russian Bear are all good ones.
    take one glass of weight gainer in the morning
    take one glass of whey protein mid day
    take one glass of weight gainer right after you work out.

    i'm on a 3 day workout schedule with different areas each day and then on the 4th day i rest

    i've had luck with just eating a good amount of calories a day in normal food spread out over 6 meals. I'm 5 foot 8 and weigh 195 lbs up from like 155....trying to get to 200 lbs and then going to start some cutting..been eating like 3400-3500 calories a day...about 60% complex carbs,30% protein,10% fat. If you have really fast natural metabolism you will have to eat more until you start to gain weight...have heard sometimes 4500-5000 calories a day though which is really hard using normal foods.

    I've never tried that weight gainer stuff...heard it taste nasty though.

    russian bear is what i take, 30$ a bottle

    i throw it in the blender for 30 seconds in water and not gonna lie, it tastes amazing. not in comparison to other things, like i would actually sit here and drink it if it had no health benefits to me. you can even make it into a milkshake with ice if you want.

    and 3500 cals is good if you're a skinny guy, 5000 calories is unreasonable unless the gym becomes your second home.

    that is the common misconception

    meat is not the best source of proteins to build weight...

    in order...
    milk
    eggs
    meat
    peanuts

    Muscle milk is by far the best supplement for gaining mass before and after workouts. It basically works the same way whey protein does, but i think it might ahve small amounts of creatine in it. I know many people that use it at my school that gained 20+ lbs of muscle on that and working out. Just take it before or after yoru workout, then once before bed and in less than a month you will see amazing results.

    for how much you spend on suppliments you could get roids and get much better results. IDK if thats something ur willing to try though. some ppl are willing to take the risks while it is not worth it to others. i personally dont like weight gainers. they're expensive and usually taste like ass. i just down as much food as i can. i eat about 4000-4500 calories i have 2-3 large meals and 2-3 small meals per day+lots of snacks per day to counter my naturally fast metabolism and work out 5-6 days weekly. if ur looking to get big eat lots, work out, make sure u have the neccesary suppliments and make sure you get enough sleep.

    the way to gain weight, is to eat healthy, but a lot. also dont do any cardio, or go very light on the cardio.

    the goal is to increase calorie consumption vs calorie burning. get some muscle milk and take that 3 times a day in addition to 3 healthy meals a day, then keep hitting the weights, one week do 3 sets of 6, next week 3 sets of 8, going heavy on the weights, but not enough to hurt yourself.

    as for roids, do a lot of research if you go this route, they must be cycled to be taken safely, otherwise they will shrink your penis for real. also you can get calciu deposits behind your eyebrows and retain water. its by far not the healthiest, but is the fastest. but who wants a 30 inch biceps and a 3 inch pecker?

    go buy whey protein (Optimum Nutrition) and some rolled oats... mix 1.5 scoops of the Whey with 1 cup rolled oats, add 1-2tsp sugar and milk or water.

    eat this a couple times per day, also eat regular food... lots of lean chicken and LOTS of complex carbs if you're really that small... spread meals out as much as you can (5-6 times per day eating). just because you're not hungry doesn't mean your body doesn't need energy

    Your body only digests about 15grams of protein an hour, so watch that you don't take in TOO much protein. Any more than 15gram/hr per day and it'll be stored as fat.
