[quote:Anonymous Coward 71641081:MV8zNDgxMTQ0XzYyMTE0OTg4XzM0QzlGOTcw] You will always remain within the bandwidth of your genetic foundation. Ectomorph, endomorph or mesomorph. Only steroids can break you out from that. I'm an endomorph that has been lifting weights for 47 years and am at a maximum size. But I still am an endomorph without magazine quality large muscles. Lowering the body fat % makes what you have accentuated so you look killer. [/quote]

Hey guys, I have been lifting weights for a few years now. Not a novice and I take it somewhat seriously. It makes me feel good and its fun trying to beat your max and goals.
Anyway I need some serious help gaining about 10 lbs of muscle. I eat lean and know about gaining but not much seems to work. I have flat lined finally. I am 35 and 175 lbs. I lift heavy and eat lean and health and almost enough. Work sometimes get sin the way of food, but I try to make sure I get my calories in.
At one point in time I was eating/drinking 5,000 calories a day and still have trouble gaining lean muscle mass. I even was taking ON Pro gainer protein which had 1,000 calories per scoop. That and creitine did help some, but not enough. I'm not trying to get too big, I prefer to be cut, but I do want to gain 10 more pounds.
Please help. I even tried oral steriod pills for about 2 weeks and it hasn't helped much. Prefer not to go that rout but a doctor even told me a little would be helpful because of my age.
