This is just another example of people spouting off at the mouth at what they know nothing about. It seems that is what this site is best at these days, that and pimping out new supplements. [/quote]

Oh? Spouting stuff they don’t know? Kind of like what you’re doing with these gross generalizations?

To al the clowns that do not think there are hardgainers then you are grossly mistaken. Simply eating more will not grow excess muscle on a hardgainer, they have shit nutrient partioning compared to easy gainers brough on by eroded glucose metabolism issues, thus if the true hardgainers simply take the advice of all these so called “VETS” running around out there simply preaching eat and grow method the hardgainers wind up with a fat ass without any quality mass.

Quality food and quality workouts will lead to quality muscle. There’s nothing hard about this.

To all those that cannot wrap their head around this search for my post in the thread about “Hardgainer Wanted”. Read the posts I made in there- they shoudl be put into article form in my opinion so all the hardgainers that come here can get the straight and narrow on this subject and not waste time listening to people that are not in their own shoes. I e-mailed an article I wrote to TC, however I guess I am not a big name and he cannot marrket anything of what I prescribe in the article for hardgainers so its easier to not print it and let hardgainers get the run around with all their misinformation and inevitably waste years and money doing the wrong thing.

Whine. There’s a lot of “hardgainers” on this site that learned to eat. We weren’t hardgainers. We didn’t know how much and what types of food to eat. That information is all over this site. You think you have the key to success? LOL.

[quote]Back to your origional question -
You need to pick a routine that you can recover from and that you can add weight to every week for all your excercises until you begin to lift big poundages, 400 or 500 pound deadlifts being a great goal. Basic dips, chins, deads, and squats for 2 sets of 6-8 are all you need, add weight every week and do deloads periodically every 4th or 5 week.

Add weight to every workout for a year or 2 and you will be noticibly bigger than you are now. At your stage strength gains = size gains.[/quote]

Adding weight every workout will yield a bench, dead and squat totaling 3000 combined! It doesn’t work that way. Strength isn’t linear. Neither is size. Again, your generalizations confuse the beginner more than help.

[quote]Simply not calling youself a hardgainer will not change you genetic misfortune, you can call yourself all your names in the book and try to train the way others do but you will have to eventiually accept your ate and train accordingly.

It seems most people that gravitate towards weight training are the hardgaining ectos yet most of the advice spouted off is by the easy gaining minority that have excelled in the sport, its like the blind leading the blind.

Just remember that no-one wants to admit they had it easier than others do, 95% of people on this site and many other sites on the web are filled with these people writing article and spouting off info for the hardgaining masses, that will lead them nowhere if they do not take charge of their own training and stopl listening to douchbags on internet forums giving them shit for calling themselves a hardgainer.

you will have to do this if you want to truly succeed.[/quote]
