Ive got a question, just out of curiousity. Since everyone's looking to get huge, no one actually cares about BMI right? A short guy can go around being 200+ lb with less than 10% body fat and still wouldnt be considered overweight, at least from a body building view? |

BMI is unsophisticated at best. If you're worried about being too heavy, take your blood pressure and get some bloodwork done. |

if you're 280lbs at 5"2, your heart would be under a lot of stress. But generally yes, BMI is trash |

Now I am no expert, however I have found that throwing some steel cut oats and whole flax seed in a coffee grinder and adding it to protein shakes is a good way to work them in seamlessly, and adds a nice malty flavor. |

I totally agree. I am right in the middle of 'Healthy Weight' on that BMI scale, and I'm skinny as hell. I would qualify as 'Unhealthy Weight' on it should I get to 190, which is my goal. That scale is written for people who have never seen the inside of a gym before.
As long as you have a low fat percentage you're golden. I'm gonna have to try that oats/flaxseed in a grinder thing with my whey....and throw in a banana and a few berries for good measure. |

Before you go to bed at night, drink a half liter of water. When you inevitably get up to empty the tank 3-4 hours later, march yourself to the kitchen and eat a meal.
What would you suggest if this doesn't work? I can hammer down a *full* litre *and* a half of water, go to bed, and I just wake up in the morning at my usual time -- but I have to pee REALLY BAD. I'm concerned that if I drink much more, I'll just wet the bed.
My suggestion would be to drink some MD before you go to bed and sleep a full 8 hours or as close to it as you can get. |

I've recently ran into this problem going from 205-220+. I get up to 219/221 and then (without changing anything) I drop down to 216.
WTF, right?
Well that's my body turning the metabolism on and getting me down to a more 'comfortable' weight.
Don't let this piss you off too much. Just focus on two things:
1.) are you getting stronger? if so, who cares? if not, what are you doing wrong?
2.) eating more. eating cleaner. and eating at the right times. |

I put on 20lbs in the last 4 months. I'm doing a bodybuilding program that makes me do as many isolation movements as compound movements. Doing abs/traps/forearms/cardio on my off days.
Diet wise, chicken shawarma, and chicken with rice doused with that calorie dense white sauce has been the answer to eating around 4,000 calories a day. Cheap, easy, tastes great. I love arab food. |

some interesting stuff here. Nothing like sleep, water, and lots of good quality food to make you grow. |
