Introduction

One Reddit user, Iamcedricspencer, recently shared his 16-week weight gain journey through a post with photos showcasing his progress. Over the course of those four months, he gained 10 pounds, but he also stayed relatively the same in terms of body fat.

The Strategy

Iamcedricspencer achieved his weight gain by taking in more healthy calories than he was expending each day. He increased his protein intake and lifted heavy weights. He also made sure to give himself rest days in between workout sessions to optimize his muscle growth.

The Results

Thanks to his dedication to his plan, Iamcedricspencer gained both muscle and weight. His progress photos show a noticable difference in his chest, arms, and shoulders, but his waistline is virtually the same. As such, he was able to gain weight without packing on extra fat.

Takeaway

If you're interested in bulking up like Iamcedricspencer, it's important to remember that weight gain can be a slow process. However, with the right diet, lifting routine, and rest days, you too can bulk up without adding too much fat. And remember, everyone's body is different, so experiment until you find what works best for you.

Conclusion

Iamcedricspencer's weight gain journey proves that it is possible to gain weight without increasing body fat if you have a solid game plan and stick to it. By increasing your protein intake and lifting weights, you can see similar results. Just remember to stay patient and give yourself the time and space to grow.
