Yep, have had that several times before. There are some kids though who don't even look like they should be doing weights at their age. They just seem too young and still growing, and I can't see how it would really benefit them because at that stage they probably won't put on a great deal of muscle, and even if they did they would look ridiculous with muscles.
I want to say it was about a year ago these three kids (had to be 15 or 16) were loading up the leg press with 45 lb plates. I tried to warn against that and stressed reps and form over weight especially for their age. Next thing you hear is the leg press coming down hard and not going back up.
The muscle won't really come in time if you're not having enough calories. Almost all the foods in your diet are pretty low-calorie. Personally I would add carbohydrates (but also make sure you have enough protein of course) : rice, oatmeal, potatoes etc.
Have you ever calculated how many calories you get per day? I was surprised how low my calories were when I did that for the first time, even when I thought I was really eating a lot of food.
Don't know if it's better to ask this question in the music thread, but can anyone recommend some good upbeat songs or music to train to (either for running, swimming, aerobics etc).
I'm thinking really of either dance, pop or acid jazz, but nothing too hip hop or rap. Just music which is uplifting and tuneful, and has a regular beat - could even be dance versions of certain pop songs.

See how much difference a carb bloat makes..this was 2 days after the last pic above.
Great job Cobblepot. IDK if I would want to get that big though. Actually I was going for that last year but it was just not for me to be that large.
To much work, I also have this fear that if I were to gain any weight I would instantly become fat a la Mark Wahlberg. Though when he's in shape he looks good but as soon as they miss the gym a week they look like they are sumo wrestlers.
