Hi, I'm a 26 y/o male in Southern Cali.. Ive always been a little scrawny, never really worked out growing up, and my metabolism is through the roof.. I've weighed 150 lbs for the past 8 years, 6' tall.. I can eat like a damn horse and never gain anything. I also live such a fast paced life that I don't think I need much cardio. I began excersizing at the gym a few months ago, and have been really active with it for about a month. My HR gets to 160 after just 5 minutes of running or biking, and I can't take much more.
Lately I've been trying to gain muscle mass and add on a few pounds. Everything I've read says to match your weight in grams of protein, and eat every 3 hours. Without a kitchen in my apt, I"ve lived on eating out for 2 years, it gets rather pricey to do so. I'm moving into a new place next week and want to start focusing on my nutrition. I drink a lot of milk, eat tons of fruit, and the rest is junk or fastfood.
Sorry to go on an on, there's a few questions that I have but I will post those in the proper forums. thanks in advance for the warm welcome!
