You have a great base for a 14 year old. Even just by looking at the avatar pic that much is obvious. It is pointless to look for weakpoints at this time though. You are simply too young for that to even matter.
BUT it is time to stop posting here and time to start eating. Have fun trying to bulk on egg whites and chicken breasts. You are not a dieting pro bodybuilder, so stop eating like one. Eat some whole eggs and some beef, it’ll do yo good. Don’t sell yourself short by limiting your food choices.

well, right now i have to stay cut for wrestling. as far as back muscles anything “lagging” or is it well developed[/quote]
OO I remember. You are the one who’s coach doesn’t want you to gain weight. BIG MISTAKE. YOU ARE 14!!! You need to eat. Do you really think it is a good idea to prevent yourself from gaining weight at such a young age? Of course you don’t because you don’t understand the negative impact it can and will have on you in the future. Wise up
Why the eff would a wrestling coach expect you to stay “cut” for wrestling? IF he expects you to stay within a weight range…DO NOT LISTEN TO HIS ADVICE. Ive seen many many many school wrestlers who’ve listened to their stupid coaches, and stunted their growth severely by underfeeding at this crucial age.
You NEED a caloric surplus AT LEAST till you finish growing (say, 21-22). AT LEAST. Just keep away for junk food and sweets. Your bones grow axially till age 21-22 and width-wise (frame changes) till 25-30 roughly.
I would also recommend sticking with a moderate to slightly higher rep range for now…
Also I mentioned this in another thread. By staying “cut” at this age, you are robbing yourself of both precious inches (height) as well as precious pounds of muscle! Use your head here. If you’re not growing normally (height and muscle) eat more.
OF course, all this will fall on deaf ears, but at least I tried lol.
Your diet is fucking stupid for a 14 y.o male. Egg whites? Come the fuck on…Your coach is a retard too for trying to keep growing boys from gaining weight.

Bonez is right…Wise up.[/quote]
You guys may as well save your breath. There is another thread this guy started that goes on for pages and pages. Same story over there. He needs to eat but he has it in his head that he has to make the 114 lb weight class no matter what. A lot of people tried to explain this to him.

Yea I hear you. I figured I’d bring it up again anyway. He’s lost. Oh well.

I completely agree with you. Coaches are idiots. They don’t give a shit about the health of their athletes, as long as they can perform at an adequate level.
Just tell your coach you want to wrestle a heavier weight class and give your self an excuse to put on a few pounds. Thats what I did. I went from the 140 weight class to the 171 class in less than a year.

will do, thanks. whats your diet look like, and how much weight do you cut to get to your class?[/quote]
i usually dont have to cut bc im a heavyweight, and im 15 lbs under, but i still keep my diet clean
in season, right now i have oats, natural peanut butter, red meat, chicken tuna, protein shakes, veggies,cottage cheese, milk, brown rice, green tea, apple cider vinegar, and ground cinnamon
i basically eat really small meals throughout the day and sip green tea
but thats the key for you lighter weight class guys, eat often but really small, if you can i recommend eating something during practice if you can
try to get 8-10 meals in a day, but keep them small and high in fiber and protein
MOST IMPORTANTLY
cottage cheese and spinach before bed, itll stop you from being hungry in the morning

based on the appearance of things, you need to move up a weight class.
Unless you believe you can earn a scholarship at a top university through wrestling, bulk up to a higher weight class.
I was an idiot in high school and cut weight for 3 years for wrestling. Now at 23, I am the shortest male in my (large) extended family over 18 and my doc says my hands and feet are average size for someone 3 inches taller than me. I haven’t grown an inch in height since I was 15 either. I doubt it was a coincidence… Now I am in a bad mood thinking about how my little bro is 2 inches taller than me haha. Go eat now!
