the first week of jan, i weighed 150.... now i weigh about 165 (at 5'7")
15 lbs in under 3 months.... with no weight training (except weighted pullups)
right now my training is pullups/pushups, ab routine, running, boxing and some other misc stuff.... but no weights!!

could i just be filling out?? at that age? i'll be 22 soon, and i remember my old gym teacher said something about males 19-23 go through a "fill-out" stage where they can gain weight easily...
any ideas?

i'm scared to think when i start training my legs hardcore.... jeez i'll probably gain a tone there too!!

being only 5'7"... i really dont want to go over 170... i think thats a lil much.. and i'm already so close.. argg

Bud. I'm 25 and I had to force myself to fill out. It has gotten easier as time goes on though. I think it's just a slowing of the metabolism.
