Solid tissue

[vchris63]

Just been thinking. If everything were to be aligned (sleep, food, training, peds and I’m sure a couple other factors) how much solid tissue do you think someone can put on in a year and stay within reason on labs.

That’s hard to answer. Each pep could technically do more than the other so what are you “taking”

Maybe 6-12 lbs

It depends a lot on where you’re starting from.

If you weigh 100 lbs, it’s relatively easy to put on a lot of muscle in a short amount of time.

If you’re already 250+ lbs at 6% body fat, you’re not going to be able to make much more progress. Maybe you can add a few details here and there, but you certainly won’t be able to put on other 100 lbs of muscle like someone who’s just starting out.

I think “solid tissue” is a lot harder to quantify than people make it sound. Even with training, nutrition, sleep, and everything else dialed in, the amount of actual new muscle you can retain in a year varies massively with training age and genetics. I’d focus less on a specific yearly number and more on steady strength/performance progress, body composition, and keeping health markers in a good range rather than trying to maximize the rate of gain.
