sleep does affects your growing rate, during your sleep, your muscles repair itself after your workout.

Sorry dude, i m apoligize for any bad assumption that i had made earlier. The reason tat i m in such a vain is tat this kind of question has emerged quite often and the solution owas stated on the sticky which posted by darklight79 on the topic " reason why u r not growing" i think iamyuanwu did gave u tat link.

However, for ur cases u may try to read through all the sticky and u may start ur question in the strength and bodybuilding sub forum and there is a bodybuilding v5 thread for all the infor that u may need to gain weight.


By the way, if u wants to gain weight, most importantly is ur daily calories intake. It can be calculated but somehow this things goes by result. Since every individual has their own metabolism rate, some are high and some are low, for me my metabolism is kind of slow and therefore i put on fat quite easily and hard to burn it off. so do a simple calculation like weight in lbs x mulitplier = daily cals intake needed; the multiplier can be 14-20 depends on ur metabolism rate. and if u want to bulk up, add in another 200-500cals for ur daily cals intake. And make sure ur micro nutrient is going well too. U can read all the elements that u need to bulk up in all the stickies that we have there, those are the golden rules to make sure that u will gain weight and supplemtn is not really neccessary if u have time to cook and stuff like tat.


Anyway i m 90kg yes, but i m not big, my tummy is.

Thanks bro and no worries.

IF YOU STAY UP LATER THAN 12-grab another protein shake.Although you seriously should get 8 to 9 hours sleep. Doctors have found that the best recovery hours within the body actually are from 8 pm-zzz. Of course being a college student that is pretty hard to maintain with social life and college work. So just grab a shake,no harm.

Yes consuming protein shakes are extremely helpful to gain weight, as mentioned by the sites below.

hi...
i have really similar problem with u before...
before this my weight is 50kg n my height is 173cm...
then i follow my friends to the gym and eat 6 times a day...
now my weigt are 56kg after 3 month also my body looking good...

hi lonely devil,
after looking at how you eat, you should be overweight by now...
it make sense if you are eating that amount of calories, and your thin body just can burn around 1300 cal, the balance cal should be keep and store in your body as fat.
if by now you go and do medical check up on your visceral fat and body fat, you are having extra internal fat that can lead you to serious diseases and illnesses even you are thin.
THE problem in your body is your absorption system, which is your intestine.
you eat alot, but not well absorb.
you are young, if you have time and money to risk your health, you can keep eating...
lots of thing in your life need to change, if you want to improve your health.
anyway, let me know if you want more details on how to improve your absorption system first.
good luck
