Weight Gain

I have a another question.

I have now been on rest for 4 days, going crazy lol. Another week and I will either be a couch potato or have gone loco.

I was wondering what one can expect as far as weight gain goes generally? I know we are all different and all that and so the answer isnt exact. But I am curious anyway.

I am still no where near my genetic potential so I assume I can still make good gains. What is the most anyone has gained on here from an HST cycle?

Thanks,
jeff
 
Weight gain is a direct result of caloric excess...training has little to do with it.

If you want to keep lean body mass gaining without too much fat gain, then about 1 lb./week is realistic for most. If you don't mind some fat then go higher/or if you are on anabolic steroids go higher.
 
Yeah I think more importantly than how quickly you can grow on HST (relative to other programs) is that you keep growing. HST pretty much ensures that you are always making solid gains, as long as you follow the principles correctly and eat right, and you SD when you start to plateau, esuring that the next cycle will give you solid gains as well.

Individual factors such as genetics, training level, diet etc. play too much of a role to give you definites, you'll just have to do it, and from cycle to cycle adjust certain things (like volume and diet) to get the best method for your body.

In other words, its impossible to get the best method from your first cycle, it takes a couple to get things dialed in. As sci said though, a 1lb a week is a good aim because of the fat gain if you try to bulk too quickly.
 
Kewl,

I can deal with one pound a week I suppose. My former routine gave me just a bit over 2 a week, but I dont think that will continue indefinitely. Some of that was probably "memory" regrowth even though the majority of "weight gain" was definitely new.

I heal very fast, so I am assuming that if I can just sufficiently induce Hypertrophy, I will begin to grow so long as I get sufficient calories.

I will get my routine together 2morrow and maybe ya guys can tell me what ya think.
