How do I get big, with one simple trick?

Simple Trick = Live healthier

Explanation of "simple trick" -
1. Eat more, especially breakfast. Supplements don't replace real food and crap diet.
2. Keep a regular sleep schedule of 7-9 hours nightly.
3. Ensure you have a stress outlet that is NOT exercise.
4. Don't neglect your legs - Squats are best for boosting GH in the body.
5. Find a legit reason to "get big". "Because girlfriend..." isn't one, especially while active duty and running long distance 2-3 times a week.
6. Focus on strength before mass. Strength helps build more mass and power.
7. Switch your workout plan at least bi-monthly.

Here's more of my thoughts on this. Feel free to ask more questions.

Unless your gf works out with you and shares your goals for a healthier stronger lifestyle, your really just working for dead weight. I opened a nutrition juice bar and partnered with a gym when I was married. I thought I could make a family thing out of it! Sometimes other people have different agendas and end up putting us further back then when we started.
Make changes for yourself and those that want to be apart of those changes will follow. Those that don't, let them go and don't chase em! There's a reason most doors only open one way.
Good luck, and yea take healthy supplements or increase food intake. If you increase, your body increases it's take in order to support the change. physical burn and damage can take years to recover from.

I agree getting bigger for your GF is bad motivation. Are you happy with yourself right now? If so good. Don't change for people...only for yourself...then it will have lasting effect.

well impressing your girl friend great but in your training, you need to increase your diet 5-6 meals, breakfast, mid morning snack protein/carbs, lunch, mid afternoon snack protein/carbs, dinner and maybe a snack before bed time, push your work outs every day with 1-2 rest days in-between, i'm 56 and I work out 5 days a week, my days off are Thursday and Sunday, I've gained 20 pounds doing this, I've been working out since I was 14 and this program seems to be working, individual results might vary but its a start, my max bench so far is 225, I weigh 165, good luck

My suggestion, if you really want to do this. I'll share my stack with you that I used to increase my size and strength exponentially. You will need to start off with a multi-vitamin. It's important for your body to have everything it needs to perform at an optimum level. Keep in mind, supplements are just that. They supplement your normal diet. Do not rely on them for everything. You need to adhere to a real diet full of protein, good carbs, and tons of veggies. Also ensure you're drinking around a gallon of water per day to keep your body properly hydrated.

Multi Vitamin: Optimum Nutrition Men's Multi

Creatine is a supplement proven to aide with strength and size increase. The one I took requires no loading time, tastes phenomenal and definitely works

Creatine: Controlled Labs Green Magnitude

This isn't for everyone but a pre workout that contains beta alanine will improve your performance and focus levels in the gym. My suggestion

Pre-Workout: MRI Black Powder

Protein of course feeds your muscles and sides recovery and growth. Whey protein should be taken within 45min after a workout. Casein Protein is taken at night before bed. It's a slow burning protein that feeds your muscles throughout the night. Taste.....whey, most of it will not taste great. Add peanut butter when you blend it for a boost in good fats, fiber, and protein. Casein will taste amazing from almost any brand. Chocolate casein will taste like a milk shake from a fast food joint.

Goto a Costco or BJs to get your whey. 5lb bags usually go for 30-40 bucks. No website can beat the club prices.

Casein: Optimum Nutrition Double Chocolate whey.

I hope this helps you, but please,'do it for yourself and not some girl

SPC Cameron Hale Doing something for your girlfriend is a very poor reason. Do not neglect your lower body. eat protein with your meals and stay hydrated. You are in the Army and need stamina.

If you need anymore help I have and excel tracker that can help u track your numbers and the percentages of your lift compared to your maximum lifts.

Go to the gym it takes time not gonna happen overnight.

There are no tricks. It's all about consistent work in the gym and eating enough to fuel growth.

Being AD military makes it more difficult because of the caloric expenditure involved with regular morning PT and work. The body can only recover from so much, so training too often can hurt more than help.

Protein isn't going to make a difference. Those powders are just for people to get extra calories in. This is more beneficial for bigger guys who have to eat more to gain weight. You don't have this problem.

I would start with a tried and true workout program. 3-4x a week working on progressively adding more weight/reps everyday. You'll want to really make sure you are eating as much as possible. If you start to gain weight too fast, eat a little less. Look into Wendlers 5/3/1 (I recommend boring but big), DeFrancos Westside for Skinny Bastards (can be found on DeFrancostraining.com), or Starting Strength.

Do this every week for the next year or more and you should see some real progress. Also, for the love of God, do not skip leg day.
