Weighed in today. I'm finally over 200. 202 to be exact. I've been 6'4" 185 for the longest time. 

Congrats Wacky 

I remember being 16 too

Grats.  Has this been a challenge gaining weight, or just a challenge doing so without it being fat?

Thx and definitely the 2nd part. I've got a weird body. Long/skinny legs and arms and a normal torso. It's always been easy to stay skinny in all places minus my mid section.

Quite the argument/discussion at my gym today on hook grip vs alternating grip on deadlifts. My question; has anyone really torn their bicep using alternating grip (have you seen it), and if so were they the kind of person that does curls on the same day as deadlifts, and/or does not know how to stretch their bicep properly?

it's usually the tendon that tears. it usually happens with people who are juicing. I prefer hook grip because I stopped having tendinitis once I started using it. A common thing I see with people using mixed grip is twisting under load, and that is not a good thing. Hook grip usually eliminates that, as well.

Hook is better for many reasons

Shutup

I didn't really mean shut up. Thanks for adding to the discussion.

Sounds like me and wacky were almost the exact same size in college.

Hey, I'm the same way.  In the absence of diet/exercise, I would become a skinnyfat, myself.

If I had a time machine, id like to spend a year just seeing how skinny fat I could get.

Skinny fat is a pretty stupid term, imo, guys.

Can 7 footers be skinny fat?

It's the worst kind in my eyes. OMG, which reminds me. My bro is a personal trainer and ran D1 cross country and track. His Senior year, he got hurt and missed nationals. He got super depressed and started doing drugs and eating a lot without any exercise. OMG, his belly was so big and everything else was so tiny. He gained like 40 lbs in no time.  He's better now, but man that was funny.

How'd you do it? Just eat a lot of protein and lift/cardio? I'm about the same size

It's ok, Benja. He still kicked a lot of butt in college and has a nice life now. He just needed that time to treat himself, i guess. Some times he trains High schoolers with stan humpries.

I don't have that problem( I have others) , but the fastest I have ever gained muscle was due to creatine and heavy lifts.  Maybe try that?

When I get down to 225, we are all going to party so, so hard, you guys.

[Benja]

One of my best friends from high school is skinny fat. All you have to do is start out really skinny, then stop doing anything physical and eat a lot. Boom. You did it.

Why isn't that just called fat?  Is there a line to cross there?

Don't let it effect your tire flipping skills, Elliot hulse.

When someone is thin and looks great in clothes, but is all flabby underneath
Some people have great figures, but in a bathing suit they are a mess- all skinny-fat- like Miss Paris, who loves to show off her flabby ass for some reason

Yes. It was a slow process (10 months). Increase in chicken breast during the week. Lots of veggies and brown rice. Protein bars, eggs, whole grain wheat bread, etc. Decreased miles ran and did more lifting/ab routines instead. I cheat on the weekends.
