hi all, i need some serious advice, i have a few problems:
First my intention is two-fold: A. Gain mass/weight, i'm a skinny guy B. Gain muscles/bodybuilding
1. My right pec development is coming along nicely after starting gym for 1 month, but my left pec development seems to have stalled. I am doing barbell and dumbells press/rows/lifts for both sides. Is it my form? I'm right handed 2. Before starting out at the gym, my weight was 58kg with significant fat around the belly. After 1 month, the belly fat is gone, my forearms, right pec, biceps have gained a little muscle, but my weight still remains at 58kg despite taking Optimum Nutrition Serious Mass. During the entire month, I have increased my dumbell weights from 5kg to 10kg already, and now I'm even starting 12.5kg on my right hand. Is there anything I can do to further increase weight/mass?

QUOTE(kshen @ Mar 15 2015, 02:04 PM) 1. You didn't gain much muscle mass . 1 month is too short to track your progress. 2. You've probably lost some fat instead , making your physique slightly defined , hence you assume you're gaining muscle mass 3. Mass gainers won't help if you don't watch your caloric intake Take note that if you ever plan to "gain mass/muscle" you're definitely prone to fat gains as well . There's no 100% lean muscle gains . A small amount of fat will still be gained 1. No i've definitely gain some muscle mass. I know 1 month is short, I've been training 4 days each week, with alternate rest days 2. My right pec used to be flat and I've also measured the circumference of my forearm and biceps before/after. It''s bigger than before, of this I'm very sure. Plus I can lift 10kg (>5 sets) now without strain whereas before I could only lift 5kg before tiring out quickly (<2 sets). Is this not considered gaining muscle? 3. I understand that. But one problem i have is that I can't seem to force myself to eat more after taking 3 meals a day and the mass gainer. Does this mean I have to increase the training intensity by upping the weights?
