Wont be able to gain serious muscle till I'm grown?

god hand · 06-10-2005, 05:31 PM

I read some shit that said most teenagers know matter what, will not be able to pack on serious amounts of muscle.

They also said at the age of 21 and up, people will have an easier time ( even tho the body might not be producing as much testosterone ) because of a slower metabolism. Does any of this make sense? This really makes me wonder should I bust my ass at the gym like theres no tomorrow. I'm going to try an get the proper nutrition (A.K.A. protein) and see if I can get those freaky results again.

nope it wrong, the older u get the harder it will be to gain muscle, not just because of test but because ur liver wont be producing much grow hormones... so use this time and all the raging hormones to pack on some serious muscle

It's all true, just give up. Go buy 4 or 5 bags of potato chips and some orange soda; sit in front of the TV for 9 or 10 hours........keep a gallon of ice cream handy too.
Good luck

I'm w/7-11...

The biggest gains you can make is Pre 25

The optimum time to start lifting in my opinion is as soon as you hit puberty...

When those hormones start raging, feed it, and turn it into natural steroids

I've gained over 30 pounds in well under a year, and I'm 3 years younger than you.

Look in my gallery, does that not look like 30 pounds to you?

KentDog · 06-10-2005, 07:04 PM

I've actually read that if you start weight lifting at a younger age, you can develop certain muscle fibers that cannot be developed when you are older. Anyone else hear of this before?

I went from 127 to 158 and stayed around 8% bodyfat. So that would be 10.2 pounds of fat to start and 12.6 now, so only 2.4 pounds of fat, and probably 5 pounds of water or so. So I gained around 23.6 pounds of muscle.

i've read that the younger you start training the greater your muscle density will be. in theroy it sounds plausible due to the ways that test, GH and IGF-1 work.

I second that, stay away from any advanced supps until you're 21. Protein/Creatine is ok tho

Juice young and you will be a midget too. I had a friend in high school, he was 5'7 senior year I was 6'1, I ran into him 3 years latter and he was 6'3....The male body grows until about 21.

If they'd concentrate on bulking instead of dieting for a contest,
they would be 200+

I refer you to my 1st comment

**Mudge** · 06-11-2005, 01:46 PM

When I was in high school we had a fair number of 305+ benchers, and 275+ guys as well and I went to the NERD high school.

Now in my gym no matter what age, I rarely ever see anyone touch 275 for even a single. Most teens dont have the dicipline or knowlege required, I'd blame that long before anything else.
