Fit Bit Stuff

Yeh I was the same and then I started eating right and put 10kg on in about a year. You probably think you eat more than you do.

I hear gomad works - gallon of milk a day plus your other food as normal.. That's cheap

3 bucks in milk per day

Don't take it the wrong way, guys. In no way would I trade what I have and I know I'm genetically lucky for the body shape and metabolism. The only thing I want is to be able to afford to go to both the gym and eat the amount of calories that I know I would need to sustain an extensive weight training regime.

I assuming your male but for the purpose of knowing I will ask.

How old.

[Bizkets is Drunk?]

Budget. Make time for gym. I did.

[k31th]

When I get somebody in to pay half of the rent I'll definitely have the money to do so. I'm 27, kimbo.

The reason I asked age is I was a late bloomer. 47 kg in year 10 grew like a weed summer hold of year 11 and left high school mid 80 kg.

Family was poor. To be fair though summer hold was spent at Lorne with grandparents and working in a chicken shop. So I ate well that summer.

But truth be told every night I did 20 push-ups to every song on my AC/DC tapes (yes I'm old).

Running, swimming Push-ups food and testosterone do amazing things. At 27 your testosterone us in the decline. But it's peaked and only just started to decline so healthy and abundant.

Can't afford the gym who cares, start training like a poor person. Think Rocky in Rocky two ( think I got that right).

Eat Big

As big as you can afford. Weight gain shakes my that expensive. They are an add on to diet not a replacement.

Make time for 40 minutes of training a day.

Got a park got a makeshift gymnasium.

Running to park.

Push-ups

Sit-ups

Heaves

Jump squats.

Only limit is imagination.

Stretch and get plenty of sleep.

Be consistent and you will see gains.

What will work against you.

Inconsistency

Failure to eat enough

Not getting enough sleep

Drugs

This includes the legal ones

Nicotine and alcohol.

Don't think about it. Just do it. Start tomorrow and keep going.

Looking forward to your new found enthusiasm and gains.

The reason I asked...

Sorry guys for cluttering this thread with my crap. Want to take this discussion to PM, Kimbo? (unless others are truly interested??)

Use spare rooms as grow rooms. No need for house mates. IM RICH BITCH!!!

LOL use spare rooms to grow rooms that'll be an interesting earner

Kinda what this thread is for.

Questions you may have others may be curious. This forum is not backward in coming forward if something annoys them.

You have a smart phone. If so you need a few apps.

Myfitnesspal for starters.

Start tracking food intake.

[k31th]

Alright... I'll repsond to your previous two long posts. Hopefully this is information you're looking for.

I'm curious why do you believe you do to much exercise....

So I'm a 27 year old male who weighs around 72kg and I'm 188cm tall. I'm skinny and always have been, no matter what I eat... but I tend to "eat" as much as is necessary to maintain my body and nothing more... if I do more excercise/fitness work I know I'll have to intake a larger amount of resources as I know I used to when I used to hit the gym hard 3 times a week when I was 17/18.

I try to keep to around about 8,000 to 9,000 kJ per day (in two meals, as mentioned earlier) and supplement that with playing sport once or twice a week and a "free" workout once every two days of pushups/situps/running/jogging. If I do any more than that I do I know I'd have to up my kJ intake.

When I had the spare cash for gym I'd probably double that daily kJ intake and work myself hard to put on lean muscle weight. I got it up to 75-77kg but couldn't go any further without cutting out cardio and I'd prefer to stay fit and be marginally strong than bother to put in the required effort (very large effort due to genetics) to build big muscle mass.

...

looking forward to your new found enthusiasm and gains.

I was ~55kg up until year 10 (16 years old), grew fast to the height/weight I'm at now and it has largely remained the same since then.

I probably don't sleep enough (6 hours a night) but that's only because I get a lot more "work" done when I'm awake 18 hours a day as opposed to 16. I spent a lot of time/effort to switch my body's requirement per night from 8 hours sleep to 6 hours sleep and I don't plan on heading back to 8 hours per night and waste all of that effort

Inconsistency and lack of sleep might be a drawback in the future due to the current circumstances of the way I live.

I don't drink, don't do drugs (legal or illegal), don't smoke... just can't justify the expenditure in my current budget of the required kJ intake and gym that I know both would cost. So I'm stuck with cardio and minor muscle working activities

Quality of food intake could also take some "attending to" but I'm quite happy just eating what I "require" in terms of kJ intake and what tastes good and nothing more. I'm definitely lucky to be able to do this.
