in Goal: Gaining Weight and Body Building
Hi all! My name is Steve. I'm 33, 5'6" 147lbs. Not sure exactly where my bf is. I've been training for four year. In the last 6 weeks I've gone from 167 to 147 lbs. I just kinda got into a rut. I'm making this thread so I'm accountable to something. I'd like to get up to 170lbs. This app says to keep my calories at 2700 to gain .5 lbs a week. I disagree. I think 3200 is a better number. I'd like to keep my physique but be 20lbs heavier. Lol. I know it's gonna take time. When I'm consistent I goto the gym 4-5 times a week and usually spend 90 mins. I train heavy and take a few minutes between sets. Anyway, any advice or suggestions would be much appreciated! Thanks Merry Christmas!

    You lost 20 pounds in 6 weeks? That’s a bit concerning

    Well I went from eating 6 times a day to about 2. I was working 7 days a week and just stopped going to the gym. So everything took a hit. I'm sure the stress was a factor too. But it's weird cause ppl see me and they don't even really notice. Maybe alot of it was water weight. I was taking supplements that probably added extra water weight. I should of included that in my original post. Lol. But yeah loosing 20lbs is rough, especially mentally.
