5'10 manlet here, ~64kg (140lbs). Started lifting a few month ago, got a bad case of wry neck after sleeping crooked and was scared to lift again, got back into it a couple weeks ago. Most of my gainz were lost when I stopped, though my strength seemed to remain, muscles plumped back up again pretty quick. According to my scales I'm roughly 14.5% body fat, this doesn't seem to change. My weight also doesn't increase. I gained about 3kgs in the first month of lifting and basically stayed there, though my strength went up and my muscles *looked* a lot more pumped. What the actual fuck is going on? My goal weight is about 75kg or 165lbs. I have concentrated mainly on upper body for the time being, as I use my legs a lot in my sport (also don't have motivation for that yet), specializing in heavy dips. I suppose I could eat more, but I feel this will just add fat. Ideas/thoughts/opinions fitbros?
Taining legs will increase your body weight quite a bit, its 50% of your body.
To gain weight you´ll have to get plenty sleep and eat plenty of food.
Also try not to overtrain as you will only achieve definition but not mass

I always wondered.
People look fucking appalled when i tell them I weigh 185.
But I have a 335 squat and like a 205 bench so t rex mode has been achieved.
