ex-skinny bitch reporting in!
Used to be your typical teenage nerd who did nothing but sit on his ass and eat shitloads, play wow, In The Groove, and listen to metal. This changed when in December 2005 (at the age of 17 and a half) thought it would be a wonderful idea to have a stroke. f**ked my metabolism right up didn't it. Also as a result of the learning to walk again bit, stopped playing soccer (which I had done for 12 years) and pretty much anything else physical, hence started getting the chubs going.
Thankfully I got bored of this, bought myself a downhill bike, and got right back into bodyboarding. Weight is off, but still skinny.
About 3 months ago I started going to the gym for weights (no cardio, get enough of that from riding and ITG) so I could get that little bit bigger, so I was not only a bit more appealing to myself, but to ever so slightly impress mates/ladies. Of course we're not talking huge here, coz a lot of (decent) girls these days are turned off by huge dudes.
Been happy with my results so far, and I'd like to chuck up before/after pics when I get home (assuming I can find a before pic) for some feedback/what areas you think I should work on a little more, otherwise this thread is providing me with some good information and opinions...rather helpful.
Currently I'm taking protein suppliment, 85% protein (can't remember brand etc off hand) and thinking about nitrous oxide/black powder for extra energy, as I still haven't quite beaten the lothargic side of myself yet lol. Any opinions on the black powder business? Didn't think to search this thread btw >.>
Thanks
