Increase Appetite Naturally and "Unnaturally"

[Christian]

Hey Brothers! I'm seeking some advice on how I can get my wimpy appetite up. I've been training for about three years now (age 22) and my main problem, like many, is I can never eat enough! I've got a good diet planned out for someone my size (5'10" 145 lbs) and I prep all my food weekly, so I have literally no excuse to not be eating. But I just don't ever eat all five meals!

It really pisses me off that I've been the same weight for well over a year now, It's absolutely ridiculous. No matter how hard or how often I train, I'll gain strength and a little size and then I always lose it because my appetite is such garbage. As most of us know, the training is the fun part and dieting is what is actually hard. I love everything about weight training, but it has been very discouraging to not see steady rise in strength and weight for this past year or more.

Which has led me to strongly desire starting a cycle, but I don't want to yet. I want to stay natural for as long as it takes to reach my genetic limit and then at that point consider taking the dive, because in my mind that would create the best physique possible.

So super long story short, what are you guys' recommendations for natural and not so natural appetite enhancers?

How clean are you eating?

[biker84]

The reason I ask is. You clearly have a very high metabolism. And you shouldn't be to concerned in eating clean at this point. I would be eating fucking bags of chips,fast food, etc. Anything super dense in calories. I on the other hand have to eat clean or I will gain a good amount of fat. I hate you...lol

If you eat potatoes add in sour cream. Eat steaks. Carry around PB and just dive in. Leave a premade protein shake out so when you wake up to pee you just down it. Cook with and add coconut oil to everything.
Eat nuts.
I used to drink egg whites. worked great but as I got older had digestive issues so thats out.

Eat some vanilla ice cream... rice pudding...not all the time tho!

The peptide GHRP increase appetite too.

Steroids are not going to do anything for you if you're not taking in enough calories. Save you're money and buy more food. You need to force yourself to eat more. Set a timer or something so you don't forget.

Overall I would say pretty darn clean, but I usually incorporate one "cheat" item everyday just so I don't go crazy. My diet is 1. post workout shake: 1 banana, 1 cup of fat free greek yogurt, 2 Tblsp peanut butter, and 1 scoop whey isolate in 8 oz water. 2. 3 whole eggs and 1 cup grits(with some butter). then for meals 3, 4, & 5: 7 oz chicken breast, 10 oz of jasmine rice, 2 Tblsp of olive oil on the rice and 5 oz of broccoli. I think that totals to about 3400 cals, which should be plenty for someone my weight. But like I said, I can almost never get all those meals in. I've tried eating dirty, but I still don't eat enough and all I gain is fat.... I can't stand being even remotely fat haha!

[biker84]

Have you played with your macros. Roughly your carbs are 35% I would try upping it to 45-50%. Also, to add some cals try using more olive oil and buy a huge bag of mixed nuts and grab a handful ever hour or so. Are you workout fasted? Imo, I wouldn't workout fasted. That's counter productive for what you are trying to accomplish. All this food talk is making me hungry. I'm going to stuff my fat fucking face now. Ha!

Yeah something is way off. No way can u be consuming 3500 calories and be 145. Do u weight your food? Like a 7oz chix breast diced should take up 3/4 of a plate. Many times people think they eat big but are not.

The thing is "Your desire to change must be greater than your desire to remain the same". If u really want it u can do this!!! U should be able to easily put on 20lbs of size with what your test levels are at 22. Protein needs to be your priority, set up a scheduled 6 meals day w a snack. Aim for 300gr/day, 50gr/meal. Eat whole food. Weight your food. Use carbs to fuel your training and recover your glycogen stores. Don't need carbs in the evening, that's when u have pro/fat meals.

Also train heavy. Not 10 reps but 6. Do a warmup for 10-12 for every exercise. Then go heavy enough to strain to put up 6 reps with control. Lower slowly for a 3-4 count, then explode up(HIT). Focusing on the negative will recoup muscle fibers u have never felt before. Your muscles will be so taxed, that u will feel them telling u they need calories. Try this for a month, if your not up 8lbs I would be shocked.

From what I read. He's not eating all those meals. Maybe just replace one or two with protein shake if you feel to full to eat another meal.
