One Reddit user, pbjellyfish, faced this challenge after damaging his colon and losing 30 pounds from his weight of 157lbs. However, after one year of dedication and commitment, pbjellyfish gained back the weight he had lost and even more, reaching 157lbs.

Pbjellyfish's journey emphasizes the importance of balancing mental and physical well-being, which comes with being mindful about what or how much he eats. Moreover, he advises on the importance of proper form techniques to avoid injury when lifting.

Armed with three different heavy compound lifts and a minor accessory workout regimen, pbjellyfish suggests that lifting heavy all the time can lead to significant muscle gains if taken seriously. He offers specific tips, such as AMRAPs after normal workout range, to help his fellow gym-goers increase their bench press numbers.

Pbjellyfish's journey may not have been a straight line from his starting point, but he stayed committed throughout many plateaus while gradually increasing his workout regimen. His example serves as inspiration for anyone looking to improve their physical fitness at any stage.

By following pbjellyfish's example and finding the right routine that fits your personality and lifestyle, readers can experience great success with gaining weight and building strength. Just remember to balance your mental and physical health and ease any worries of injury by executing proper form techniques. Whether you're a beginner or a seasoned veteran, the gym is waiting for you to make your own progress story.
