    in I want to put on weight! who's with me?! Comment by Platypusman82 January 2015
  • Well I've been doing shoulder presses for 10 years. I still see no improvement. ha. So it was time to try doing other things for shoulders. Etc. I was pretty consistent until this year. Well I should say last year now. In 2014 I was trying new things. None worked, so I guess back to the basics again. My body loses weight…

  • Plateau meaning I look in the mirror and see the same body. I was in the habit of lifting every morning. M-Sat. Leg day, chest day, etc. Pretty regular, but I still don't or didn't like what I saw in the mirror. So I tried new workouts, new rep counts, more isolation, less isolation, etc.

  • Routines cause me to plateau. I find that for myself I need to mix up a routine after about 60 days.

  • Start small. either cut out all food after 8pm, OR cut out all french fries. Seriously you have to start small. I find that when people listen to me and force themselves to not eat close to bedtime combined with some type of fitness routine they notice a difference. Then it snowballs into choosing certain foods to give up.…

  • I also have a hard time gaining weight. I feel your pain. The tried and true method is certainly eating more(but not crap), and continuing to mix up your lifting routine to shock your body. My main problem is digestion. I can't handle too many of the protein shakes or weight gainers. They tear up my stomach. Well…

  • I also have trouble resting. Mentally it is tough even though I'm smart enough to know that I can train as much as I want, but if I don't rest I'll never properly heal, recover, and grow. I try to make a game out of rest days. Eat as much as I can handle, or see if I can get to bed early that day. Mentally you almost need…
