I'm a skinny guy and I like to do heavy weightlifting to compliment my swimming but I don't know what I should be taking to make gains because lately I've noticed that I have plateaued and my lifting sessions are hardly worth it, what can I do? I also run long distance in track and that probably doesn't help me build muscle because it cuts weight I try to gain. I need some help on supplementation and sets/reps I should be lifting to put some bulk on.
*Please refer me to other threads on the subject that might help me if you can.
The distance running does not help with preserving muscle. Ever think about running sprints?
Are you getting enough protein? 1 gram per lb bodyweight if you are lifting frequently and heavy? Maybe a bit less than that. Branch chain amino acids? etc...
