Haven't made any significant gains in a little over a month:why:
I'm eating a lot (at least I think I am) and still not gaining weight:why:
This creatine not doing shyt:why:

Gains don't come over night you usually need a full 6 months off season. Most of the time adding lean body weight like 5 pounds in a years would be considered great....

This backwards hustling really bothers me

On this current cut and my last one I made strength gains while losing weight

Every year I get stronger and lighter

Why do nikkas want to gain weight for no reason :why: You don't have to put on 1lb a week to get bigger/stronger

Seems like you need a deload or a week off if you're hitting it hard and getting the calories in (you don't need as many as you think).

You may be able tell if you're overtraining by the scale. If im not recovering enough and I step on the scale and I'm more than 4lbs lighter from one day to the next (at the same time of day) I take a week off. I usually come back stronger and my weight is back to normal, if not a little heavier (1lb or 2).

I used to ignore this. Wish I would've learned sooner.

I eat a bowl of oatmeal, some cereal, sandwich and chips for lunch, dinner varies but usually like 800 calories. And a protein shake with chocolate milk and peanut butter. Should be like at least 3000 calories

There's your problem right there.
