ITT: Message to all Hardgainers..

[Fallfree]

Dunno if you guys read this or not..but this is straight up awesome..Gotta Love Tate:

Now remember, we're at Westside Barbell. And this guy wants to go outside to talk so no one else can hear. Think about that for a minute. What the hell is he going to tell me? This must be some serious **** if we have to go outside, I thought.

So we get outside and he starts talking.

"For breakfast you need to eat four of those breakfast sandwiches from McDonalds. I don't care which ones you get, but make sure to get four. Order four hash browns, too. Now grab two packs of mayonnaise and put them on the hash browns and then slip them into the sandwiches. Squish that **** down and eat. That's your breakfast."

At this point I'm thinking this guy is nuts. But he's completely serious.

"For lunch you're gonna eat Chinese food. Now I don't want you eating that crappy stuff. You wanna get the stuff with MSG. None of that non-MSG bull****. I don't care what you eat but you have to sit down and eat for at least 45 minutes straight. You can't let go of the fork. Eat until your eyes swell up and become slits and you start to look like the woman behind the counter."

"For dinner you're gonna order an extra-large pizza with everything on it. Literally everything. If you don't like sardines, don't put 'em on, but anything else that you like you have to load it on there. After you pay the delivery guy, I want you to take the pie to your coffee table, open that ****er up, and grab a bottle of oil. It can be olive oil, canola oil, whatever. Anything but motor oil. And I want you to pour that **** over the pie until half of the bottle is gone. Just soak the **** out of it."

"Now before you lay into it, I want you to sit on your couch and just stare at that ****er. I want you to understand that that pizza right there is keeping you from your goals."

This guy is in a zen-like state when he's talking about this.

"Now you're on the clock," he continues. "After 20 minutes your brain is going to tell you you're full. Don't listen to that ****. You have to try and eat as much of the pizza as you can before that 20-minute mark. Double up pieces if you have to. I'm telling you now, you're going to get three or four pieces in and you're gonna want to quit. You ****ing can't quit. You have to sit on that couch until every piece is done.

And if you can't finish it, don't you ever come back to me and tell me you can't gain weight. 'Cause I'm gonna tell you that you don't give a **** about getting bigger and you don't care how much you lift!"

damn, ok, I'm motivated, going to the kitchen now (no wife)

[Wrong_Hole]

doesnt work. im capable of gaining fat if i stuff myself with food like this but i still wont gain strength even on a known program like SS or 5x5. so basically ill turn skinny/fat instead of just plain skinny which is even more depressing.

[Muffin_Baby]

Why can't I be a hardgainer? I want a diet like that

[Limons.]

i might try that.

most natural trainers dont look like they train with a shirt on let alone a hard gainer.

[Jedan01]

That much MSG would put me in a coma

I gave some of my leftover Chinese to the dog and he was vomiting and ****ting everywhere for 15 minutes straight.

Agreed.

I've lost count of the amount of times i've complained about being a hard gainer and been told 'oh your so lucky i wish i was in your situation' Which i usually return with 'No you really don't! and pretty much what you said above.

[KidSwole.]

You're preaching to the choir brah, i started at 110lbs. I'm no where near my goals but I don't look anything like the kids who come in once a month to curl in the squat rack and do one set of abs.

yo ur inbox is full clear it so i can pm u

[Amsterdammerr]

Thats bull****
The problem with hardgainers isnt once in a while massive amounts of food that you cant push through, its the discipline that comes with it when you have to put massive amounts of clean food down your throat for months on end, day after day, meal after meal and see people who are genetically gifted make twice as much progess with less effort in the same time.

Thats where the mind overcomes the procastionation, and not to say that this sport isnt suited for alot of people

[peterholbrook]

was this written by Dave Tate? Think i read it on t-nation a couple weeks back

[FinalPlague]

you get BIG but at what cost
