6"1 150lbs

[derin11]

Im pretty ripped, but looking to put on mass. about 20-30lbs in the long run.

As of now im taking in about 150G of protein, and about 2500 calories per day.

I guess im whats called an ectomorph? its veryyyy difficult to put on weight.

Can anyone please advise on what i should be doing. Thanks

Eat More!

Bulk up. More Protein, Creatine, Weight Gainer, etc.

this.

2,500 is below my maintenance and I'm shorter and lighter than you and my maintenance is 2,750. Currently Bulking at 3,100+ daily. I would suggest properly calculating your macros via the sticky in the nutrition forum, I would guess your maintenance is around 2,900 or so, and if you want to bulk perhaps start at 3,200 + or so.

6'1 150 lbs ripped lulz. Bulk until you're 200 lbs at the very least, before even think about cutting.

[WilsonTiger]

6'1 150 not ripped. Start eating..

there is no such thing, just because you have a higher maintenance than others does not make you a "hard gainer".

eat 5k kcal each day and i can asure you that you will gain weight.

eat more.

1. Post pics.. intredasted to see a 6'1" 150lb'er who is "pretty ripped"

2. Keep re-evaluating yourself. There is no single calorie number that fits everyone. 2500cal is a start, IF you can certify that you are actually taking in 2500KCal.. After about 4weeks weigh yourself and if you haven't gained (should have gained about 1lb at least on a clean bulk) add more calories!

3. Do not go around "eating everything in sight" as people here would recommend. I'm assuming you want to gain muscle rather than fat. Sure you cant just add 500g of glucose or sucrose a day to your diet.. that would give you 2000 excess calories and you'll probably add a ton of weight but not the kind u want.. lolz..

[LankedOut]

I started at 6'5 150lbs, just gotta eat dat food.

[Shredded-Wolf]

Started at 287, cut to 160. Now 225, you need to eat a fuark load and then some more.

[BiH23]

Was gonna lol at 6'1 150 ripped, but saw others did already.

I'm 180 6'1 and I'm still skinny as fawk.

Anyway, yeah like they said, keep eating lol.

[XShreddedX]

Work your muscles very hard, but allow them to rest and recuperate and grow. This is the easiest way to put on weight.. REST.

Basically besides working out, stop moving soo much.

Why run when you can walk
why take the stairs when theres an elevator.

Think about all the caloris you can save monthly. and just for the love of God eat more.

Eat more, move less. /thread

[MuscularBeast]

Lol you consider that ripped? Maybe by Kenyan standards. Start eating bro.

Cardio is good for your heart. It shouldn't be any problem eating more calories to make up for it.

[jbman2]

Please don't call yourself "ripped" if you're 6'1" 150lbs, all you are is skinny. I've got almost 70lbs on you at the exact same height, and I still feel small.

[benchbrah]

eat and eat some more

I agree, i never said dont do cardio, i said planout your cardio, plan to do it but dont do more. Dont go to the gym workout intensly for an hour, than do a half hour of cardio, and then go home and go take the dog for a walk, and then go grocery shopping, then come home and play manhunt outside. I'm saying if you plan to do 30 mins of cardio, do your cardio, but just limit your excess activity or your basically shooting yourself in the foot.

[Tenesee]

Im 6'1" and around 150ish pounds too. I consider myself slightly ripped but that's because I'm 16. I'm trying to gain weight but i dont want to gain fat cause my girlfriend loves abs XD. I eat like 3500 calories AT LEAST a day. Im gonna end up doing Damen Griffiths carb manipulator thing to get max gains. Gonna do it a few times. Its like 175$ for 16 weeks of his program and the average muscle gained is anywhere between 25-35 pounds

[colehx14]

I was in a very similar position as you... 6'2 160 two years ago, started eating 3000-3500 calories and a year and a half of working out later I am around 195. Its gonna be hard to eat so many calories at first but after a week or two you will get used to it.

[VesperT01]

eat more
workout every body part
be consistant with working out

[Tomgifbb]

Dirty bulking then cutting is a stupid way to build muscle the correct way is to lean bulk it will take longer but you will be on steady graph line not a wavy one.weight gainers are just full of sugar make u fat creatine is suggested under ur situation.

[armies]

Eat more fats, srs, and train really hard, do free weights only, and train extremely hard
