Estrogen Blockers for me???

[trig]

Hello everybody, I have been searching for an answer to this question and I can't seem to find any answers for my particular situation. Here it goes......Me and my brother started lifting around the same time, it's been about a year and a half and he is HUGE!!! Know I have gained alittle, but nothing even remotely close to him. And to top it off I follow strict diets (3,000 cals) 300 grams of protein good carbs, good fats, creatine, multi vitamins.....ect..... and he eats shit, Burger Kind, Mc Donalds...and doesn’t gain an ounce of fat....all muscle. What I am wondering is if the fact that he more closely resembles my father, who is a good sized guy, and I look more like my mother, who’s family is not the most muscular (to be nice). Could it be possible that I have a higher estrogen count and that could be hindering my gains? and if so could I use a product like 6-oxo even if I am not using anything like a PH. Thanks for any help you can give..

Genetics!
If you were to see pics of me and my brothers you would even guess we are related. I'm 5'8" 220lbs (21years old), one bro is 5'5" (his height was stunted due to a brain tumor when he was young) 180lbs with a big belly (23years old), and my younger brother is 5'8" 150lbs (19years old).

As you can see, we all came from the same partents but each of us measure totally differently from each other. Genetics play a big roll in this game, so people have them and some people don't. Just take what ever you have and work with that. Maybe you can try and increase your calories if you are having trouble gaining weight.

Do you think maybe 6-oxo or something like it may help alittle?

If you want a beneficial supplements get some creatine, Protein, and multivitamin.

I already use protien, creatine, Multi, C + E, Nlarge2 Dextrose with postwork out shake (60gprotien, 60grams dex, 10g creatine). The thing I am curious about is that I heard that extra estrogen can actually hinger muscle growth. So, if infact I do have my mothers genetics, purhaps 6-oxo may help me put on some muscle. ? . Any ideas???

I don't think excess estrogen is your problem.

Well, you seem pretty sure estrogen is not the prob. I will avoid the 6-oxo and try and up my cals. to may be 3500-4000. Pretty soon I am going to have to move my desk at work into the bathroom. Thanks for the help bro. I apreaciate it.
