Hi,

I'm a true ectomorph, small frame, anorexic-looking and all. I just wanna know: Can I EVER get big? Not Arnold-like but just pack on muscles? Should I eat and exercise more? It's so annoying! Arrggghhhh!!!

Again, there is noone who cannot gain weight and muscle, just those with a poorly designed diet for their needs. In answer, yes, you can.

Hey man, i'm the exact opposite of you ....endomorph here.....and I always thought i'd be fat and out of shape. But it all came done to a decesion, by me. I wanted to beter my body, and get big in a good way. So I cleaned up my diet, and started lifting, hell my very 1st bench max was 115......now I can do 300+, only person stoping you, is yourself giving excuses. I don't have trouble gaining weight, but I do maintaining. I have to watch what I eat and when I eat stuff. Expecially carbs.
You on the other hand, can eat just about anything. IF you wanna be 200lbs solid muscle, go for it. Eat and enjoy having a fast metabloism.
Like bb1 said, anyone can gain or lose weight. All depends on how much work you wanna put into it.
