Weight is stagnant but still getting stronger and more defined

[Maxtro H & F]

I’m a little confused. I’ve been stuck at 150 since the middle of April when I should be gaining weight. I’ve been working out three times a week fallowing the “Where to start” program. I’ve been eating larger amounts and more often. What’s odd is that my strength is increasing and my muscles look bigger even though neither my weight nor body fat % have changed.

I don’t really care about getting stronger. My only goal is to add muscle mass. I should be able to add 2 pounds muscle a month so I wonder what I’m doing wrong.

I don't think you're doing anything wrong. Your body is just converting previous fat mass into muscle mass.

Think about this.

Do you really think you're lifting more with the same amount of muscle you had in the beginning of the program?

These "facts" DO NOT add up. Most likely your body fat % has gone down a bit, because it's quite difficult to measure accurately. OR you've recently added supps that increase "pump" dramatically enough to be noticeable. In any case, these are also not the sort of numbers you can look at after one month and panic.

But you need to continue eating more, carefully & cleanly.

it could also just be water. One month is hardly any measure for progress.
