Beaver,

You might want to go at it a little lighter at first; and as times goes on, build up 5 on, 2 off. This won't be the first time you hear me say this, but the biggest gainers seem to always build themselves up... and the guys that don't gain seem to leap into high intensity routines.

I suggest maybe going at it 2 on, 2 off for a week or two, then bump it up to 3 on, 3 off, and so on. Dustpan gained quite good girth, and he had a nice routine: 3-4 on, 3-4 off (depending on how he felt). I'm fairly certain he worked up to this, though. Bib, another huge gainer, also worked up to his high-intensity routine. Same goes for YGuy, who is possibly the biggest gainer of us all. The list really goes on.

Either way, no need to start out at full speed ahead when using less intensity might provide the same results, and possibly even better results.

Good luck beaver!
