Freakazoid metabolism
Genetics SUCK! I eat between 3,500-4,000 calories a day and can,t gain anymore weight than the 25 pounds i gained since starting training. Not only because it is hard to eat so much "clean" food. The cost of eating like this is insane as well.
I am hoping now that my 2 sons are into school steadily that my wife will start to work soon too. Maybe then at least the cost of this freakishly fast metabolism won’t be so hard to bare.
There has to be someone else out there that had trouble like this. I am curious though if they have conquered this issue. Some people would kill for my metabolism i suppose. But i would settle for a much slower one.
Even so, I will never give up, never stop eating, and NEVER stop training.

try age.
I know, not a good thing to say … but I know people who say they couldn’t gain weight to save their lives until they hit 50 … and then they could. I DO believe that it’s easier to keep the fat off than put on the muscle so while your problem is a nice one to have in some aspects, it’s the worse of the two for bodybuilding.
