    Depends on your workout routine, what you do, how much you do it, etc.

    Also, it really depends heavily on your diet. Are you eating properly, etc?

    Yeah I eat better than most people my age. I eat a variety of foods and I work out every other day for about two hours but I do complete overload.

    You can work out everyday but don't work out the same muscle's everyday. You need to give the muscle's a day to rest and rebuild. My schedule is Monday arms and Shoulders, Tuesday legs, Wednesday chest and back, Thursday arms and shoulders again, Friday it depends on how I feel I might do chest and back again or legs. Of course do at least 20 minutes of cardio everyday. Saturday and Sunday I take off. I also work my abs everyday if I can fit it in I TRY to do 1000 crunches. But of course don't over do it remember lifting is about Quality not Quantity.

    Along with what spitvenom said, my personal trainer suggested protein shakes. I accidentally bought one that said something about building 8lbs of muscle in 14 days when I meant to get a light protein shake- and let me tell you, it worked.

    Not true at all mate.

    Your muscles need to be shocked in order to grow. I would say review your training technique/posture, your training schedule, diet and sleep patterns.

    Change it up, got to Discuss Bodybuilding and ask some questions.

    Good luck :p

    Or I could help you right here if you post your schedule?
