Okay...first off I gotta say that it was an excellent suggestion to start off a forum dedicated to hardgainers!
Once the idea is carried out this thread should be moved there by one of the moderators.
Let's get started then!
I'd like to list a couple of things that have made my life as a hardgainer even harder (or should I say softer,If u know what I mean:D )
-Certain medications:
For example,most antidepressants have some sexual side affects,thus drastically reducing the amount of erections one has during the course of the day. This means less oxygen-rich blood coursing through your penile veins,which leads to: surprise surprise,slower gains. Zoloft and apparently Prozac as well are a few examples of this. Not all antidepressants cause this,though. If you absolutely necessarily MUST be on them,try taking only half the prescribed dose,or another milder brand of medication.
-Steroids and some prohormones as well:
I'm sure that this goes without saying but I'll say it anyway:
DON'T DO ROIDS IF YOU EVER WANT TO ADD A QUARTER OF AN INCH TO YOUR PENIS!! They may temporarily boost your testosterone levels and improve your sex drive..but just wait 'till you've finished doing a cycle...and you won't have an erection for a very long time.
The same goes for a lot of prohormones too. They have a tendency to mess up your T-levels after doing a cycle,just like the real stuff,and some even cause sexual dysfunction DURING the cycle (a good example of this would be 1-AD which puts your penis into a state of hybernation).
Any contribution to this thread would be greatly appreciated!
