I kno a guy who's 5'6" and weighs like 90-95lbs. No muscle what so ever nor fat on him. His is just skin and bones.

I know hes skinny but he'll gain muscle like a mother fucker in the first couple months. I used to be like him until I went to the gym hardcore. I lifted as heavy as possible and gained like 45lbs. I wanna get back to 175ish.

Your bone weight is less than average? Does this mean you can fly?

 

[StevenM23]

Yes u got it bud , my dads a
Doc so I learned all about bone density when I was younger haha

 

[Eric1987]

Do you guys have any specific routines? I used the 5x5 for bench press and I am gonna start that up. Looking for more things to try and to get him to get as big as possible. We are going to start taking creatine as well.

 

[StevenM23]

Use the stronglifts 5x5 if u want mass and strength , go to stronglifts.com and check it out

 

[Eric1987]

So just do the core lifts? I dont really understand the weight method for the 5x5 he uses.

 

[StevenM23]

Well find out all your maxes for each workout of 5 reps , then start at 60% of that and go up 5 pounds every workout with each lift.. Simple yet very effective bro ,

 

[Eric1987]

Nice I'll definitely give that a try. So only do the core lifts the article suggests? Nothing else? Or would it be okay to incorporate other lifts?
