Jay K asked:

I have super fast metabolism because I’m an ectomorph (hardgainer). Is there any way to slow down my metabolism so I don’t get hungry so much and I can actually put some weight on?

This will be quick — a SPECIAL REPORT I’ve been working on is finally (FINALLY!) finished and it’s called, surprisingly, the Hard Gainer’s Manifesto. Imagine that!

It’s brief, yet complete.

It’s also just $15 through Sunday. After that, the price goes up to $20. Big deal. Still cheaper than dinner and a movie!

You know, I couldn’t find any blog carnivals related to the hardgainer, those of us who have a difficult time putting on weight, so I started one myself. Hopefully, you all will submit articles about your challenges, successes, even failures. Let’s join together to build a community of hardgainers, where we share tips and motivation!

Let’s just do it.

Here’s the little widget thingy to get started —

If you want to host a Hardgainer’s Blog Carnival, leave a comment on this post and I’ll arrange it. Hosting a carnival, by the way, can bring your blog or web site a TON of traffic and get your ideas out there. In fact, hosting a blog carnival can be a pretty viral way of getting “known.”

numero uno asked:

I’ve gained about 9 pounds from 1.5 months of moderately-intensive gym training (lifting of weights using machines ‘n stuff). I play tennis for about 3 hours, 3 – 4 times a week.

Can I eat more fast food? I mean, they’re so delicious… I ate KFC and Pizza Hut today.
I think both meals add up to just over 2000 calories… but I played tennis!
