Where to start? was created by Leadleg
Hi all

I'm 1.9 m tall and I have been around 75 kg for 4 years and I am 22 years old. I have been gyming for about 6 months now while using protein shakes and creatine. I have gained 10 kgs since gyming and some muscle (nothing all that noticeable though). Are there any oral steroids I could take to gain some good muscle mass, or are injections the only way? I must admit I am quite hesitant about anything involving injections etc. I have also heard HGH can help? Any beginners advice would help. Cheers!

Bro you are far from your natural limits... And beginner being the operative word in your post. Eat right and train properly (progressive overload, failure, form) - you get the picture. Long road ahead of you. IMO forget juice and GH for now. Just my opinion, others may disagree

You say you have been 75kgs for the last four years. Which says to me that your diet isn't good at all. No amount of steroids will rectify a bad diet. Focus on getting your diet and training sorted. Post your current diet and training program and let's take it from there...

simple, train harder, change up your routine and rep ranges and train to failure, eat more and sleep even more! muscle growth is not an over night thing. it takes most pros 5 years to put on 10kgs of lean muscle. just remember this is a marathon and not a sprint race, being a sprint race will end up with injuries and damages that are not so easy to recover from especially when the muscles become way stronger than the tendons. try changing up your training style from usual straight sets to doing 100 rep sets, where you can pyramid up in weight whilst going down in number of reps, so do 20 reps and then rest 30 seconds, do another 20 reps, rest 30 seconds up the weight and bang out 15 reps, 30 seconds rest, up the weight, 10 reps, stay the same weight, rest 30 seconds and go again till failure, and u keep going up and up untill u get to 100 reps. then move on to your next exercise, start at a heavy weight and do 10 reps, stop,rest,another 10 reps,(these 10 reps should be to failure) then do a lighter weight and go for as many reps as u can(till failure) untill 100reps is reached. so in 2 exercises u have done 200 reps all with different rep ranges, some lighter weight till failure and some with heavier weight untill failure.

Thank you all for the tips. Could you please point me to some proper diet plans? I have always struggled to get together a good plan and to stick to it. What supplements do you suggest I take in conjunction with a protein shake 2-4 times a day?

I am also looking for some good workout plans as I gym alone and need some guidance. Thanks for all the help!
