I remember that feeling mate. There was a time when I couldn't even walk up the stairs without getting out of breath and needing a 2 minute rest. My knees were also in constant pain from trying to carry too much bodyweight.
I was big as fuck and strong as fuck but I bet any average fit twiglet could've kicked the shit out of me quite easy with no effort LOL

Hahah I felt your pain bud. It’s nice being that big but fuck me it’s a right pain as like you said knees my ankles were always swollen feet were also bad had to get bigger size trainers as my old ones would not fit. And lol I reckon a 3 year old could have put me on my arse lol

It's fairly easy to eat 10k-15k cals a day mate and bang on loads of weight in a few months so if you want to get close to 330 I'd say you're at the perfect age to give it a go right now
Do a bit of cardio 2-3 times a week and you should stay fairly healthy.

The cost is a big factor for sure mate. I got all my mass gains from shakes but powders were a lot cheaper back then.
I reckon it's still achievable now with real food but it would have to be a dirty bulk to keep costs down.

Can you remember what they were back then mate? Was having this conversation the other day with someone else or did you just make your own?

CNP pro mass and ON ultimate were about 30 quid for a 5kg tub.
I switched to MP WPC when I dropped carbs/sugars and was paying 20 quid for a 5kg bag.

Yeah I mind when protein was £30 in 2010 etc 2006 you could go to the markets and buy 10kg tubs or pro lab weight gainer cheap
then it went up to like 40 something now it’s in the £100s fucking silly prices
First ever weight gainer at 16 put on 8 stone in 1 year lol 2 shakes a day
