I think if people post the reason they wernt making gains, people in that situation can look at it and see if it applies to them. so if you have an experience with correcting a problem and getting real gains post it. mine was intensity, i worked out by numers,one body part a week for a certain amount of sets and reps,and not trying to add weight to lifts.

Proper Nutrition and sleep. Life is tough and gets in the way of the dedication it takes to really get bigger (after the newbie gains of course)
I think I have always made good decisions for my workouts, save a few: those were not performing exercises at all for bodyparts that I already have developed well. For bodybuilding I had bigger shoulders than chest so I stopped working out shoulders all together, the result a weaker barbell bench press, and front delts "overdeveloped" compared to my side and rear delts.
good post idea btw.

I was worried that if I ate 3000+ calories a day I woild get fat. But then I realized that since I am working out and eating clean food that the only thing that is going to happen by eating 3000 cals a day is gaining lean body mass.
BTW, good thread idea.My Training Journal...

On top of what I posted before, I found that throwing your ego out the door, using less weight, and concentrating on perfect form has really improved my gains.
