Alrighty, im 6'2" and 150 so i guess you could compare me to, well, a stick. For the last two maybe three weeks now iv been starting my days off with at least an egg but must of the time two(hardboiled i dont know if that matters), then come lunch i i usually have a sandwitch or ill grill up steak, and for dinner ill grill up some steaks, porkchops, chicken, so on. Iv been working out for 45min to an hour at least 4 times a week but most of the time 5 times. Im manily working on upper body for right now but do the occasional leg work out here and there. Heres the thing, i dont seem to have gained anyweight, and i dont see any noticeable changes in the size of my arms or chest. What am i doing wrong here? Though i dont know what im doing when i work out i would of figured by now i would see somthing. I am a realist so i dont expect to see any DRASTIC changes in 1 or even 2 months but i thought i would see a little somthing.
Maybe a workout plan or eating plan would help me out cause i really dont know what im doing wrong.
-Thanks!

Here's my take on this. It is vitally important that you first know what your daily intake is at. To accomplish this, just eat normally for a few days. But, everything you eat must be recorded in calories, protein, carbs, and fat. So, if you eat a chicken breast with say 2 cups of broccoli, that's about 30 grams of protein and 16 grams of carbs. Once you have a few days recorded, add up the daily totals and see what you get. My advice is simply to do this simple recording and get back to us. "If you aren't eating, you aren't growing." If you are eating right (slightly overeating), then any program under the sun will work provided you give it 100%. Once your diet is in check, the next important thing IMO is pre-post workout nutrition. I'll expect a reply in the next few days! :cool:
