I have a new contract where I’m going up and down tall ladders all day long with a heavy tool belt on. I’m already a fairly lanky person, and the six months I have been doing this I have lost about 15 pounds of my muscle mass. I look scrawny as hell. I started going to the gym again and drinking mass gainer, but I can’t gain a pound because of my activity level at work. Anyone have any good strategies for gaining mass? I have a feeling most people are just going to say eat more but I already eat insane amounts of food it seems. I just have a super high metabolism. Looking for tricks or certain things that may help slow down my metabolism or help me gain faster than I’m losing

I think I’ll try that. That is an insane amount of milk but I’m up for the challenge. I do love me some whole milk

Better yet, do raw milk, your belly will benefit from the small critters that pasteurization normally cooks out.

It is, and I'm not sure I could do it myself. I did start mixing my protein shakes with whole milk though, which upped the calories, and improved the flavor. Bulletproof coffee type shit works too, just a ton of extra calories, most of them fat instead of sugar.

Bottom line is you just need more calories, no matter where they come from.

I drank a half gallon to try to work up to a gallon, but holy god was my stomach messed up. Worse than ever in my life. I read they make some pill that helps break down milk for lactose intolerant people so I’m gonna try that

You might be better off with the candy. Or just a lot more food if you can afford it.

Drink it over ice or as a milkshake with your gainer, I don't know why it is, but you can pour it down your throat that way. Also, watch where you're gaining, when it starts to come on it will never be where you want it.
