Introduction

Tobiturbo, a M/21/6’0” Reddit user, shares his weight gain journey. He describes his progress in six-month intervals and shares pictures of his body during that time. Tobiturbo has gained a total of 30 lbs in close to 1.5 years.

Minimal Exercise, Maximum Gain

Tobiturbo shares that he did not engage in rigorous physical activity to achieve his weight gains. He did not go to the gym but instead preferred to eat as much as he could and drank a mass gainer shake every morning. He later cut the mass gainer shake out of his diet but continued to hold on to the weight he gained.

No Calorie Counting, No Problem

Tobiturbo did not count calories and instead focused on eating healthy as well as calorie-dense foods. He also listened to his body and ate when he was hungry. This goes to show that calorie counting is not the only way to achieve a healthy weight gain.

Advice for Those Looking to Gain Weight

Tobiturbo’s weight gain journey proves that it is possible to gain weight without rigorous exercise and calorie counting. Tobiturbo suggests eating healthy, calorie-dense foods and listening to your body when you’re hungry. He also advises against relying on mass gainer shakes for long periods of time.

Conclusion

Tobiturbo’s journey shows that everyone’s weight gain journey is different. It is important to listen to your body and do what works best for you. While mass gainer shakes may work for some, it’s not always the healthiest option. Give different methods a try and see what works best for you.
