Hi people out there, I've been worried about this situation long time ago, and I always think of what else I can do to gain weight/ to grow stronger. Anyway today I decided to create a thread here as I know many of you are experienced in fitness topic, and I believe I can start doing something that will help myself after getting advices from you all today.

I'm 18 this year, my height is about 174cm and with 50kg of weight. My weight has never changed after my form 3 year. No idea but no matter how much I eat, I still looked the same.

The worst part is when I take off my cloth, I can see the "bone" both above my chest. It's not only I can see, I can even touch it because it's like just wrapped with a thin skin.

And for my waist, it's only 26"

Ok guys, I think that's what I could think of to describe my situation now. I really keen to learn and know more to change my body shape, but I was always clueless.

So people! Hopefully I can get some guidance and advice here, million thanks!!!

there key to loss weight is eat less than u burn, so the key for ur case is definitely will be the other way - eat more than u burn to gain weight. but not necessarily EAT MORE la. u can also exercise more. eg, strength training to build muscles. in terms of eating more, u cant just simply eat anything u want. u wan to be healthy then must eat healthy. eat more protein n more weight training?

Actually how many eggs we have to consume averagely per day?
And hmm.. I guess I've to start going for gymnasium instead of thinking it only.
As for doing gym, anything I need to take note of? Such as what equipment should I go for first.. blabla..?

Ya been checking the sub-forum these days.. Thanks
I heard one of my friend said that regular and healthy rest hour plays a role too, is it true?
I sleep at around 2-3am and wake up at 12-1pm when I'm not going to school/ work.
Does this affect my growing?

I'm very inactive in exercising.. Don't have "gang" for doing it together..
Hope I could get to know friends that can do it together in college later

Yeah I think of that too, but what kind of supplement should I consume? I'm totally new and need advice.

I'll never smoke in my life.


Which kind of mass gainer should I consume? Mind to advice?
Thanks.

several GRAM?
actually how long is the time we are supposed to spend each time we enter the gymnasium room? 1 hour? or 2?

should I consume weight gainer or protein thingy arh?

Guys I went to the gymnasium 2 days ago, and for the very first time.. I spent 1 hour and 15 minutes there.. Seriously I can't continue any further that day because I was totally EXHAUSTED!

I need advice from you guys about eating habit before and after gymnasium session.. Should I consume before/ after gym? And the amount/ type of food to be consumed.

I'll go there again either on tmr or the next day after tmr, trying to make a good practice of going there at least twice per week.

Now my weight is 48kg when I measured in the gymnasium, hope it'll get better after 1 to 2 months

I see some of you suggesting to eat every 2/ 3 hours, but.. for my case, I eat only when I am hungry, that means I don't even eat regularly. For example, sometimes my dinner can delay even til 9pm+ and I seldom eat breakfast. Is this one of the main factor that cause me being so light and thin?

If you ask me to eat every 2/ 3 hours, I think I'll be quite difficult to do it. And, what to eat??

As for the mass/ weight gainer thingy, I think I'll not invest in it so soon first.. Maybe after sometime when I'm really consistent in going to the gym and are determined in mass gaining.. What do you guys think?

Went to the gymnasium for the second time today..

Things worked fine but now, whenever I straighten my left forearm, I can feel it's quite painful..

Is that because of I'm still new to exercises and "muscle stretching"? And when I press the muscle, it's a bit hard compared to the right forearm.

And guys, I still need advices from you guys about eating habit hours before and after entering the gymnasium..

I heard one of my friend saying that eating banana before entering would help, any comment?

Thanks

Hi guys, I'm going to the gym for the 4th time this Saturday.

Hmm, a question to ask.. Can I work on other equipment while I haven't complete the current's set?

Let's say I'm planning to do standing arm curl for 15 reps each set, for 4 sets.

After I finished the second set, can I go for another equipment then come back after? Or I must finish 4 sets of 15 reps on standing arm curl only go for the others?

But I was like doing A then B, then C and D, after that gets back to A again and the cycle goes on.
Can we do that? o_o

What does it meant by superset? Sorry I'm a newbie..
I can't really finish my sets in one go without jumping over others.. Because I've no energy to lift already.. My muscle will be like shaking..

Finished 5th gym workout few days ago, and my weight is 51.2kg now.. I was 48kg on the first day I went to the gym, that was around 2 weeks ago.

Had better shape for my bicep now.. Not very obvious but myself can actually observe it hehe..

Looking forward to the 6th gym workout!

ada wang ada amoi is true..
i dont deny that wang is a very important element in a success and blessed relationship to both party
but amoi that comes to you because of your wang is those kind of materialism amoi..

Thanks!

Hmm ya I've read articles on websites about bodybuilding etc..
A question here, any idea how to train our shoulder to be wider?

Trying my best now hehe.. I do consume half boiled egg(not very often), milk, banana, more plain breads now.. trying to get more nutrients that my body needs.

Just to update my workout schedule with you guys and also to seek for advise from experienced people..

I just went to the 11st gym workout today and hmm everything goes fine.. I scheduled myself to hit the gym 2 times per week and each workout I'll spend 100 minutes averagely..

Now my weight is 52.8kg, which has increased around 4kg+ since the first time I entered the gym..

I Google-ed and had some basic understanding on what is mass gainer and whey protein..

Mass gainer is supplement that gives high calories that comes mainly from carbohydrate and fat, can be said as a replacement of food/ additional "fast meal" to gain calories needed for body growth..

Whey protein is something that has high protein, but very less carbo and fat only?

What I want to ask now is, if my desire is to grow meats -> more muscle -> strong and bigger(by hitting the gym), what should I take?

I heard people said that mass gainer isn't worth to take because the calories can be simply obtained by eating more in meals..

But then how about protein? What does it really do? Does it help with what I want?

I guess I'd go for whey protein too, mass gainer is a lot moreeeee expensive and I don't think I can't afford it..
Btw, I heard some of my friends say that eating those supplements do help but, once you stop eating them your muscles will not be as good looking as before..
Is that true? But will I still able to maintain my body shape if I continue to hit the gym regularly even I stopped eating supplements?

yup I started to do pushup at home since last week..
i do 3 times each day, each time around 50 pushup..

would like to know more!
btw can we consume smaller size of serving instead of the recommended serving labelled on the nutrition fact of a mass gainer?
for example, i consume 1 scoop instead of 2 scoops each time..
because, protein gain from 1 scoop of mass gainer is very close to per serving of whey protein.. somemore mass gainer gives more calories that might help more in building muscle/ weight..

can i do so??

hmm then what's the point of taking mass gainer which will give u around 50g protein each serving?
even though mass gainer also gives lots of calorie besides protein, but won't it be a wastage since half of the protein it gives won't able to be absorbed by our body?
