Vernon Davis gained close to 45 pounds over 4 years in college.

That seems amazing if he did it naturally.

He said he went from 220 to 265 in 4 years.

I hope i can do that

Possible. Depends on genetics, and methods / diet and other factors.

Even if it didn't happen for you, would 5-6 years to gain the same, be so bad anyway?

it's amazing what a disciplined approach and hard work can do isn't it???

when i first started wts properly i gained about 15pds in 12 weeks eating **** although i wa sonly 55kg at aged 18 back than with a sub par wts plan considering what i know now and lots of cardio for sport

is there a formula or anything for going up in weight when lifting=amount of weight gained?

Whaaaat are you trying to say?

no, it mostly depends on calorie intake but the wt lifted is important too

like..is there a formula for...

hmm how do u say this
ok
lemme give it a go
l

like how much you increase your weight in over time (lifting) to how much you gain in weight (pounds)

to put 1 inch on your arms (bi/tri measurement) you need at least a 10pd increase in total bodyweight but you can put wt on with light wt if you eat enough...bodybuilders don;t really lift super heavy most od the time but they use a very high vol (certain compounds help this) and different intesifiers such as drop sets to cause a lot of muscle damage then they eat a **** load to re build the damaged muscle back up which if done properly should rtebuild bigger each time you do it and over time your huge

so the wt doesn't matter that much in that regard but you should always be looking to get stronger increasing the wt lifted) before getting bigger...i can deadlift 130kgs but i'm only 74kgs...your probably bigger than me but can;t lift any where near thatx...make sense???

if i knew what kgs were... haha sorry i only know lbs...

im 6 ft 170 lbs

Dalton, just search for a metric conversion calculator on the web. It's a shame that fancy school doesn't think to teach metric.
I'll give you a hint: the answer is not FRANCE! LOL
just bugging
d.

1pd = .45 of a kg so 170pds is 76.5kgs

Yep, 2.2lb's in a kg.

diana that was not funny.

even thought i laughed.
