Is this possible?

Gaining about 15-20 lb of muscle mass in about 4 months. Im asking because there's this kid I know telling me he's gonna do that. I wasn't sure if that was possible or not.

at 20lbs of muscle max thats 5 lbs a month.. thats a lot of work.. sounds doable.. alot of eating, resting and repeating..

impossible, no... but extremely hard. if he diets, rests, and lifts right then its a possibility, chances are slim but it is possible.

If he says he can do it, then challenge him, and if he doesn't slap him in the chest and scream in his face.

im not sure if you can put that much muscle on in just that short amnt of time. Yes it might be possible if he has the right genetic. So i guess wait and see.

Like they^ said its doable but very very hard.It would make it easier if he is just starting to lift or get back into after a long layoff.Gains come easy in the beginning or if hes juicing with the right stuff.If hes not really dedicated and really knows his stuff I doubt HE can do it.

1.25 lbs of lean mass I think no unless he is new or coming off a long layoff like kaboom said this is a good amount to gain even with gear miind you Im speaking of lean mass not body weight.

25.6lbs of lean muscle mass in a year tops

everything else is water and some fat

**Kaboom** · 04-14-2008, 09:55 PM

Yeah hell I could gain 20 lbs of anything in a month or less

scott_guy_ca · 04-14-2008, 10:37 PM

25lbs in a year with no gear.......no way. If this guy can gain 20lbs lean muscle and show bdy comp # to prove it then hes on shit or myocin nil (why not me lord WHY). ive seen truly natural and dedicated guys get 10 15lbs in a year max and thats with a good diet mad training and an all around clean lifstyle, id say thats the around the max natural. but if its a strait 20lbs and no worry bout the type of weight then 20 no prob, lots of calories no cardio and pwr lifts all the way.

Agreed! Gotta have that motivation.
