no $40 a tub is cheap. definetly aware at how difficult and slow muscle mass gain is, thats why i’m thinking all the calories would make me fat rather then grow musle lol. guess where just going round and round.

It all depends on how you work out and whats encorporated in your workouts. Below is 2 pics of me… One was during winter and one was during summer… Winter I usually Bulk and summer I cut… I actually eat the same exact amount, just workout differently… As you can see in pic 1 im def alot more puffier… pic 2 is my summer workout with cardio added and as you can see im more cut… smaller… but more cut.

whats the weight gainer you use? think might have asked you that already. Its 1000 cal a serving? maybe i’ll just add that and see how it goes. 3500 would be better then 2500 i suppose.

you should prob do more sets with heavier weight instead of moving up in 20lb incriments. like maybe 2 45’s on each side (225) for 8 then add a 25 to each side (275) for 3 sets of 6, then maybe a set of 3 45’s on each side (315) for a set of 3 to 5 depending on your stamina, which is prob pretty good with the way uve been going. sometimes when you change it up your body will respond very well in terms of strength and growth.

I’m highly doubting that PJB can freeweight squat what he claims for reps. I’m talking about full, freeweight squats…

I just like to work my way up I guess. Once I start lifting a heavier set I usually up the minimum weight. So far Ive been pleased with the results.

I use the squat rack, not the assisted thing- only free weights. Im not a little guy.
