I need some weight...


Question Posted Friday July 29 2005, 2:38 pm

Ok, now get this. I'm a 14 year old male, turning 15 in October, I'm 6' 2", and I weigh 130. I'm not skinny, as most people think when I say that. I do have a 30-31 inch waist, but I also have a large six pack, large chest (100+ lb. bench press, free weight, 180-190 machine), good biceps (35 lb. one-arm curl, 75 lb. two-arm), my forearm is larger than my elbow joint sideways, and my shoulders and neck are worked pretty well (40 pushups are nice and easy). I don't have any stats for my legs right now but I have really large upper legs and calves about the same size. I play baseball and I can run a 4:40 MILE easy (to give you an idea of my legs). But I want some more weight. I have all the size I need but I'm gonna start working with the football team soon for the next season (b/c I'm obviously too small right now) and, well, yeah, I need some more weight. Protein shakes aren't my favorite recommendation, to me they're like a legalized form of steroids. And they basically just build muscle - not the strength with it. But I'm thinking about 'em, but if I did do protein shakes, I'd only do one round. But chyeah, any suggestions on ways that I could go from 130 up to around 160 or 170 within the next few months (before the end of this year)? And hopefully to around at least 200 lbs. by the end of this school year (next May)? Oh yeah, and I'm at least 97-98% muscle and I'd like it to stay that way. Thanks for any and all suggestions I might get. ~All 4 Him 4eva~

Actually my brother used protein shakes and he really saw a difference. He was about your size when he was your age. Protein shakes were recommended to him and he is at the naval academy. They do work! But if not, If you don't want to gain fat then all you can do is work out. Doing sprints rather then long runs will bulk you up better. I think there's some kind of bar you can take-but yeah i'm just getting that from Mean Girls so i dunno. Good luck!

omg... you sound hott. lol
I'd say eat more italian food. And mexican food. Carbs. heck, spend the day at taco bell.Another at McDonalds. Or you could just like.. live there for a while... play on the jungle gymish thing for entertainment when you need a break from eating... check out any girls that walk by i guess. But they will mostly be around 5 if your going to the jungle gymish thing...

sounds like fun to me. =]

anways, rate me if i helped or made ya laugh or somethin.

peace mon

Well, i might not be the best health expert, but maybe eating more meats would help. I wouldn't exactly recommend sugar and all because that isnt' exactly good for you. Eat a lot of dairy products (good for protein) and meats. Not sure if i helped, but i tried!!!

Disciple (plz rate me if i deserve it)

frenchy answered Friday July 29 2005, 9:17 pm:
hey! i'd suggest for you to eat more carbs like potatoes, breads, pasta, rice, that kind of stuff. these foods add up the pounds and give you energy to do sports, so you'll hopefully gain weight and stay fit, as you'll have the energy to stay active. dont eat junk food or whatever else, cause then you wont stay in good shape. just try to eat more carbs and proteins and keep doing all those sports, and you should gain weight. but you know, you dont have to gain weight, or atleast not thar much. you're still young, and your weight will catch up to you some time. hope this helped, if you need some more help, leave a message in my inbox. good luck, peace and love

Well well well, big muscle man. =p Joking. Anywho my advise for you is. . . Don't worry too much about what you eat, and take longer breaks between your work out sessions you seem to have so many of. If you work out every day, try working out every other day, or even cut it down to one hour a day for five days a week. It's good to work out, but there is such thing as too much of a good thing. Sure, us girls may think it's hot. . . But it can really be damaging your body. So take it easy for a while, and chow down a few twinki's if you feel like it (If you like them that is. . I personally don't, but, hey, whatever floats your boat=D)

Hope I helped, If not, I'm super sorry.

<3 Tay
