Milos was too busy working out if he could beat Big Bob in a lefthanded arm wrestle, leaving me to eat the chicken wings.

Good times.

Re: What is a realistic muscle gain in lbs?

Ive found my body weight to be all over the place, although Im only documenting my weight every monday morning first thing, Im averaging each month out and seeing the monthly raises as im still finding one or 2 lbs difference per week up and down.

When I first started weighing myself I was all over the place, It easily change up to 6lbs depending what time i weighed myself during the day.

Anyway, point being I dont worry about weight anymore although i do still measure myself. Weight is a long term change as is body shape, only one worth worrying about per week and month is what your lifting but thats just my opinion

Nope

Weight, The mirror and the tape are equally important - but that statement is goal dependant.

It is possible to get stronger and fatter, stronger and leaner, or stronger and stay the same.

Re: What is a realistic muscle gain in lbs?

so on a bulk, if someone is hoping to gain ~1lb of muscle a month, how much total weight gain would that equate to, including fat, water, glycogen etc

on a good/average bulk

3-4lbs?

Here's one for you. I like bunny rabbits. Let me guess; does Jay Cutler like them too? pmsl....
kevin levrone said while talking to ronnie coleman that arnie said to lee haney that he liked rabbits.

and they all gained 30lbs of lean mass everytime they looked at a barbell.
