I am an ISSA certified trainer. I have also taken numerous nutritional courses to supplement the lack of knowledge the ISSA provided me in that field. I was personal training at the GREENTREE SPORTSPLEX for over a year before i decided it was no longer for me.
ok.
I never said that it could not be done or that this individual wouldnt achieve your goal of 15-25lbs of lean mass in 4 months.
I have a very hard time believing that someone drug-free put on 30lbs on lean muscle in 7 months. your partner may have gained 30lbs in overall mass but there is no doubt in my mind that fat is part of his gain.
a small fact you might enjoy is that even pro bodybuilders who are using steroids only can put on in the area of 25lbs of lean mass in a year. this is with proper training, strict nutriton, lots of rest and steroids.
i have much more i would like to type but i am tired tonight and have class at 8am. i will make sure to come back and finish my post.
