middle aged guy
looking for supplement suggestions to gain weight and strength
Steak. Whole eggs.
What, exactly, did you eat yesterday?
What’s your current training plan and PRs on the big lifts?
That info is fundamental before figuring out supplements.

Agree about the diet.
Not trying to be a jerk, but are you sure you’re that skinny? 235 at 6’5” is over 3lbs per inch of height, which is huge for a lean guy. I only point this out because reckless abandon when chasing body weight goals, especially for us middle-aged gents, typically doesn’t end where we want.
Yeah if this a regular thing forget muscle -this seriously no bueno for overall health as middle aged guy. Have pretty much anything else.
Bunch of sandwiches, subways, pizza slice then fruit, whatever
Cheat day once every 7-10 days fine in your situation
Have quality steak/grassfed beef once or twice a week
Yeah do pretty much any Tnation program over this. These good and will keep you feeling fresher …
is it a joke ?
