    Returning after 10 years.

    Hi, I am returning to bodybuilding after 10 years. In those 10 years I have lost 56 pounds of VERY hard earned muscle. I am a hard gainer. It took me 3 years of consistently hardcore training to gain this weight, but through not training, I have returned to my "normal" weight.
    I understand that supplements are supplements and not replacements. And I also understand that there is no super supplement to do all the work for me. (By the way I am a 100% natural bodybuilder).
    My ultimate goal is to get as big as I possibly can.
    My current goal is to pack on the mass. I don't put on fat, at all, ever. I can eat 3 elephants and still only weigh a bit more than normal. This runs in my family. Not one of the males in my family has ever been fat/overweight.
    This is good in one way, but crap for training.
    Also, I have heard talk of muscle memory? So hopefully it may be a little easier to gain some mass this time?

    You suck.

    Muscle memory will play a good role in your re-development, but dont look for the Holy Grail. Youre going to have to work. But you know that. I'd say take it as half the time it took originally. Train smart and welcome back to the iron.
