Damn...I'm stagnant!

[Doneitmanz]

Have been hitting the gym for 3 times a week for an hr per session, doing these splits:

Day 1: Chest + Triceps(1 hr)

Day 2: Back + Biceps(1hr)

Day 3: Shoulders + calfs(1hr)

taking only 2 scoops of Designer Protein PER day

but the weight has been stagnant for like the past year man! Dudes..any suggestions on what I could have done wrong?

You haven't been training legs which is detrimental towards gaining mass. If you want to gain muscle and release hormones. . . squat, squat, squat, squat, and squat. The legs are the heaviest portion of the body. . . don't neglect them!

Also, try switching up your routine.

Evaluate your diet and caloric intake.

Are you getting enough sleep?

When you redesign your routine, peform all basic compound movments. Stay away from isolation movements (cables and machines).

Good luck!

Louden is right on the money. You have to hit your legs.

The only thing I might respectively argue is there is nothing wrong with doing SOME isolation excercises. However, the CORE of each workout should be based around the compound movements as Louden mentioned.
