What I'm assuming is that you seem to have a problem with me specifically, not the fact that I'm supposedly handing out "remedies" left, right and centre. I wasn't the only one who responded to euniique's post, yet you targeted me specifically, and didn't say anything to anyone else. So, again, that leads me to believe a suggestion is not the issue. On top of that, go to any thread on any given topic and you see people attempting to start discussions with others about subjects of interest, offering their two cents etc. Same if you go to any fitness based forum (or any specialised forum) you see people trying to help each other out. Why you’ve taken such offense to my suggestion, I don't know. You don't want me responding to your posts, fine, but taking it beyond to something completely unrelated I don't get.
I didn't assume that she was naturally skinny because she, herself, posted that she and her sister are
naturally skinny. Her words, not mine. Naturally is by nature, as in not because of illness or medical complications. It's naturally. I'm not sure how else that can be interpreted. Being naturally skinny and therefore possessing a naturally fast metabolism is the definition of an ectomorph. It's not that huge of a leap. When it comes to gaining weight as an ectomorph/someone with an extremely fast metabolism increasing caloric and protein intake, timing your eating according to that metabolism and designing your workouts to better suite that metabolism is going to help. It deals with the primary problem preventing weight gain (again, in the case of natural ectomorphs): the metabolism. It's not a "remedy," everyone’s an individual, sure. It's a suggestion and no one's forcing her to take it. Note that I'm talking about true ectomorphs, the kind of people who eat a lot and still can't seem to gain a pound, not those who simply eat very little, and not those who are thin due to illness. I read all of that in her post, I didn't pull it out of my arse.
