gnasher16 30,281 Posted August 12, 2015 Report Share Posted August 12, 2015 (edited) I've been trying to put weight on for well over a year now, trying really hard to consume around 3200 calories a day. I've got a pretty balanced diet and eat plenty of protein and complex carbs. My weight is constantly up and down fluctuating +/- 4lbs either way and no matter what I just cant break the 10st barrier.. any suggestions? 3200 isnt really enough if you have a fast metabolism mate.....whatever your maintenance calorie intake is 500 above that is what an average person will need to gain 1 pound per week....you being a hard gainer/fast metabolism it will be more try to make around 4000 if 3200 is balancing out.....very basic of course but your age/activity/work/sleep will all effect metabolism.

DogFox123 1,379 Posted August 12, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 12, 2015 I've just been shot down on a bodybuilding forum I've just joined after showing my diet, thing is I got the f****r off a website as well. 300g of protein is way too much for the body to handle apparently.

I would have thought at your current weight 200 odd grams would be ample Yes it could be ok but this diet I found is simple to follow and with minimum preparation, I work long days and I'm up at the crack of dawn. Can't be assed f***ing about doing 3 whole eggs and 5 egg white crap in the morning. Edited August 12, 2015 by DogFox123 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rob284 1,682 Posted August 12, 2015 Report Share Posted August 12, 2015 Eat more, simple! More fat and carbs and youll soon put weight on, as long as you have enough proteib some of the weight will be muscle. 3k calories isnt enough imo. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I got weighed yesterday and I was 95kg, I've lost over 5kg due to being flat out at work and not eating enough. You don't reckon 3000 calories is enough for a bloke my weight who has a very active job plus working out 3 days a week? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
