I just recently joined the gym and was looking to put on 10lbs of muscle. I currently stand at 6' 170lbs. If I lift 4 days a week, how long do you think it would take me to gain 10 lbs of muscle?
"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.
Depends how hard to work out, how many times a week, how much weight you lift, how you eat, how you sleep, and your genetics.
That question was a really useless one. If anyone could get "so and so- big" within a certain time period, we wouldn't even have a need for training forums. We would just go to the gym, throw some dumbbells around, and get big. Presto!
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.
Well it all depends.. i was one skinny asian mofo when i started working out in late august (108lbs or so im 5'6") and i gained my 10 lbs in about 4-5 months... Right now im still around 118-120... i got sick last week so i lost some weight, but im back at around 118.
Like if you're big to begin with, then gaining 10 lbs is alot, and wont easily be done...
Around there sounds right with average genetics doing everything right like diet, heavy liftin, sleep,etc. We are talking bout pure muscle right, not weight from water or fat you get while bulking.
Get some creatine, and you can do it in 6-8 weeks.
“The 22 Rules That Flip the Script With Women… And How You Can Use Them Tonight”
Most guys accidentally kill attraction before they even speak. They assume they need a bigger bank account, a better physique, or smoother lines. They miss the point.
Female desire operates on a specific set of psychological triggers. Break them, and you're invisible. Follow them, and you become magnetic.
I learned this the hard way. Years of freezing up. Getting friend-zoned. Watching other guys walk away with the girl I wanted. Then I discovered a set of 22 simple rules that rewired my entire approach.
When I started working out and eating right I put on 10lbs of muscle in 5-6 weeks tops. And this is verified as I was keeping track of my body fat % at that time, I gained more like 11lbs in 5-6 weeks because I had gained a lb of fat as well. I've been working out for a year now and I've gone from 129lbs to 163lbs of MUSCLE, I've actually gone down in body fat %
The only reason I havent gained much more is because I did not increase my calories for a few months a while back (stopped gaining weight).
I reckon a reasonable period is maybe 1kg every 2/3 weeks. THat's not too much. so 10 pounds is about 4.5 kg. Do the math.
I think the initial gain will be more, you'll probablygain 1kg in 1-2 weeks, the last kg will be more difficult. At th same time you may well lose fat as well so don't go according to weight.
I just really hate people that can't reply to a question without making the questioner feel like a dumb@$$.
"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."
Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.
To begin with, the average person can only put on 5-10 pounds of solid (lean muscle) a year. Yet this is dependent to where you are at. If you are just starting expect to see for the 1st three or so months quick and rapid gains, yet it will taper off. Moreover, for every pound of muscle one will retain 1-2 pounds of water so these immense gains you guys are giving out might not be realisitic. All I have to say is lift hard, get sufficent sleep, and most importantly eat right. Maybe you will be lucky and have the good genes either way just keep up the effort.
Ok I'm no expert fitness guru but I know that one of the hockey players on the Red Wings (Boyd Devereaux) worked really hard in the offseason and put on 10 lbs of muscle and keep in mind that he's a PRO athlete who's already in top shape and basically gets paid for doing so. Since the off-season was about 3-4 months for him and he worked really hard at it, I'm guessing that an average guy who has a busy life would take at LEAST 6 to 8 months, just a guess though.
