I was and am still on the following schedule:
Workout 4 times a week (1 hour workouts)
Jog 3 times a week (30 min. blocks)
The difference was that over one month ago I was trying to lose weight.
And now I’m trying to gain weight.
I thought I had a gut, which I kinda do, but I figured maybe if I eat more of the right foods instead of less food and keep my exercise schedule that maybe that gut will go away and I could also gain some legitimate mass to my body.
About a month ago I weighed 135 lbs (I’m 25, and 6’1), but since my decision to gain weight and eat more food I have gained 15 lbs (150 lbs).
So here’s my question:
I gained 15 lbs in the span of one month, is this a good thing? Or is it too fast to gain that amount of weight in such a quick period?
I know for damn sure that I can gain a hell of a lot more. I can eat loads of food – Loads. My body looks just as good as it did before, maybe better (I have a little bit more of a gut, but not much).
Whether I’ve been trying to lose or gain weight I’ve always had a very healthy diet.
Am I working out too much for the amount of food I’m eating?
What do you guys think?
I don’t want to become a power muscle-man, I just wanna continue to be in good shape.
Thanks,
