Within the bounds of extremes BMI is pretty much BSaltuna98 wrote: ↑Thu May 28, 2020 12:43 pmI know the question is how to gain weight, and not whether to do it or not. But 70kg would put your bmi over 23, which is not ideal. And, even if you are over 23 but your body fat percentage is low, your risk for illnesses increases and lifespan goes down. Maybe you prefer gaining power and compromising the others, which can be the case.
OP I would def try and figure out what your objective is. Why do you want to gain weight? To make more power? You might not need to gain weight to do that. It's not like you are a featherweight. Seems more logical to me to build your engine while maintaining your weight and getting enough calories to do that. As someone on the heavier side of cycling (175 x 90) I can say that even with a good amount of muscle (my last squat session was 3x9x138kg) weight is mostly a hindrance on the bike
