macavity said:wish I could say it was about gaining weight for me - that sounds easy...
im 6'1 and a big build, but im up to 120kg....
i eat well, but have the slowest metabolism known to man. i do put on muscle fairly easily though, so at least there is one bonus.
aim is 100kg and a big reduction in body fat.
From someone with experience in these matters I'd recommend a Sports Naturopath/Medicine Doctor. They found I wasn't absorbing my foods properly through poor digestion and my Zinc/hydration (water) levels were way to low. All this is done through testing and they usually are aligned with a supplement company with products that actually work. (Metaplex is pharma grade and from NZ and only available through a Doctor).
Hope it helps..
