Im took choc fav and 3 times a day ...yes do lifting

My routine makan rite now

Breakfes -3 half boiled egg]
- Bread whole grain with peanut butter/nasi lemak
-protein 2 scoop

Lunch - Rice with chicken breast
-protein 2 scoop

Night - Chicken rice
- protein 2 scoop
*
My personal opinion is that you overkilled on your protein intake.

3 eggs - 7*3 = 21g protein
2 slices bread - 8g protein
PB - 8g protein in 2 TS
Chicken breasts - 20g in a normal chicken rice portion * 2 = 40g
6 scoops whey - 24*6 = 144g protein
Total 221g of protein a day.

Hi all, I am gaining weight and had went to gym for around 2 months, Weight had increase for around 2 - 3kg for last month. But the problem I met is my chest is not growing at all compared to others part of body park. Any recommendation to solve that?

And can I know your total calories intake per day recommended for those want to gain weight. And the breakdown of the calorie. (protein %, carb % and fat%)

Any recommendation is welcome!

Ps: My weight now is 59kg
*
Calories in > calories out you gain. So you need to set you calories in ie TDEE. Plus your chest not growing most probably you are not working your chest but your arms are taking all the hit. Just like me when I first started.

U wanna grow breast? Lol....

Jokes aside, chest takes a long time to build provided u r doing the optimal exercises for chest. And that 2-3 kg is not all muscles even when nutrition is on point
*
I have a delusional friend who thinks that he gained 5kg of muscles because his waist line did not increase. And his nutrition is never on point. Plus he said that he can gain 3kg of fats only within 3 days of CNY. So everyone don't be him.

Ok, thanks for your info, but the 2-3kg is quite motivating, when you are gaining weight xP
I think that can be a valid reason, when the time your arms taking all the hit, will your chest pain the next day?
*
Mine yes when i first started. And I can feel most on ecentric but contraction not that much. So I have to really go feel it and make sure they contract.

trying to calculate my TDEE... should i say i'm sedentary or moderately active? i work in a call center so i have to sit on my ass 9.5 hours a day, 5 days a week. but for the past 2 months i've been on the gym hard... i never miss 5 days a week for 1-1.5 hours each.

so which one is it?
*
Your target is to eat more right? Aim at a higher TDEE. After 2 weeks you think you gained too much, cut 150 to 200. If yiu are satisfied, stay there.

Weight yourself everyday and get average for a week.

I think you need to drink vitamins or food supplements in order for you to crave for more food and for you to eat more than before. Also, milk can help you gain weight and other dairy products.

What vitamin water and supplement?

i have been underweight for all my life until recently i buy GNC whey protein and workout at gym..

now i develop a bit muscle and my BMI is normal..

but not sure healty oo..
*
You do know right whey does a little to help in terms of macros and calorie count if you daily macro intake is not on point? 1 serving of whey has 120 to 150kcal, 20g to 25g of protein. If you are under weight, 1 pcs of kfc chicken breast has 350kcal, 30g of protein? Why drink when you can eat?

What is for your lunch of 1000kcal?

2500kcal a day? You have breakfast and dinner and supper and tea time. Second breakfast. Second tea time. Slot in here and there.

That is why you are not gaining. Apps doesn't make you gain. Eating does. Apss show that you have 700kcal to go. You leave it there. You expect the 700 to go into your body as digital data to make you gain?

yes.. and back to my post earlier.. thats y im taking protein shake to cover the cal i cannot take..
drinking is ok.. only food i cant take more.. easily full and make mo wonder how people can eat 10k calorie at youtube..  shakehead.gif

You do know that whey is 120kcal per serving right? If you are seriously under eating, 4 scoops of whey is not going to help. If you are considering gainers, go drink milk, eat peanut butter.

And those people who eats 10k kcal is not eating like that everyday.

The thing is with reviews, you just can't trust them.

The thing is with appetite-increasing supplements, they are filled with many questionable ingredients with unknown/unbacked effectiveness on whether or not they actually work. There aren't just many research on things that increase appetite. I think Phosphatidic Acid may increase appetite, but even then it's inconclusive.

IMO the best way to permanently increase your appetite is force-feeding. That means eating when you're already full, most of the time to the point of puking. It works for me. I was 52 kg before I started, after many months force-feeding, I'm now sitting on 80 kg bodyweight. And of course my appetite is also of an 80 kg man. I have to warn you though, it's really difficult, and personally for me, a living hell. But it's really really worth it.

Gradually increase food amount or volume is a better way. But one has to track how much he or she is eating.

is it true that eating more meals often than eat more in each meal can get weight easier?

You can eat 10 meals like a chicken and not gain. You can eat like a bear for 1 meal and you gain

When I was having hokkien mee in pj last 2 weeks I overheard a girl talking about BMR to her friends. With a note book. But the basic ones are true. I left before I get to know what she is selling. Should have stayed but the place is too damn hot. But she claimed to be health advisor?

They are a lot of people doing this BMR in fact. If you think the girl you mentioned is the one you said she claimed she is health advisor just show the name and company if you have. Don't judge people like what you see.

I judge and I don't confront. Why go over to the next table and say, "hey you sell herbalife ah?". It is for her to proof that she is not, like you here my friend, you might not be walking the talk. Beating around bushes. Sure looks like some MLM.
