im sorry i asked a question on a forum, i didn't mean to waste valuable internet space by spamming another question thread, forgive me please

as for info, 20 years old, 6'0, 160 lbs

hoping to add 15-20 lbs as quickly as possible (hitting 175-180lbs by very early 2011 is the goal right now) for mma, mostly gi and non gi bjj with some striking

i swim and i run, i use promasil, kre-alkalyne, multi vit and eat a pretty healthy diet

(this information is also available in the FAQ but summarized for you here)

Do Starting Strength and eat more food.

Go to the FAQ; that's what it's there for. Read it. If you have any questions, read it again. If there are still things you don't understand, then start a thread.

what a hostile know-it-all forum, thanks for the warming welcomes and personal advice everyone

i'm sure you are all far too busy to have actually courteously copy pasted let alone typed some actual information in my specific thread, something i could refer back to, on a forum intended for helping people, my bad

 

[Urban]

I think we're done here. This forum is FULL of people willing to help people who are willing to help themselves. If you are unwilling to take that first step, then I'm sorry our unwillingness to serve the information you seek on a silver platter has offended you. Perhaps you and your delicate sensitivities would find a better fit elsewhere... or you could just read the god damned faq since that's what they're fucking for.
