Introduction

Norquist, a 29-year-old man standing at an impressive 6'9" and weighing only 190 pounds, has taken to Reddit to document his bulking journey. Through his posts, he shares his progress, setbacks, and tips for anyone looking to gain weight and build muscle.

Starting point

Norquist began his journey as what he called a "skinny-fat" individual. Despite his height, he lacked muscle definition and overall mass. His starting weight of 190 pounds put him in the healthy BMI range, but it was clear he had room to grow.

Bulking process

Through a combination of weightlifting, diet changes, and supplementation, Norquist began his bulking process. He increased his caloric intake to a surplus, ensuring he consumed enough protein and carbohydrates to fuel his workouts and aid in muscle recovery. His supplementation included protein powder and creatine, which he credited for helping him maintain energy and improve his lifts.

Progress and setbacks

Norquist's progress has been steady, but not without setbacks. He has experienced weight plateaus and some muscle imbalances, but he remains focused on his goals. He advises others to track their progress closely, both in weight and lifts, to ensure they are making steady gains. Additionally, he reminds others that setbacks are part of the process and should not discourage them from continuing their fitness journey.

Takeaway

Norquist's journey showcases the importance of a combination of weightlifting, diet, and supplements when aiming to gain weight and build muscle. It also highlights the need for patience and dedication, as results may take time to achieve. Whether you are looking to bulk up or start on your fitness journey, Norquist's experience offers valuable insight and inspiration to try things out for yourself.
