Eat big. Stop eating like a punk bitch.
I have eat the same breakfast damn near every day for the last 8 years
6 eggs
2 home made protein pancakes topped with nut butter (shite is delicious)
Apple dipped in nut butter
Glass of milk
Glass of water
This right here is not clean protein. Don't do this. No one needs a breakfast of 6 eggs. He might be big, but his cholesterol and sodium, levels are through the roof if true.

Yep.
Especially with the milk -- which I'd cut out entirely, but that's a tough one to sell to a lot of people.
Adding to it the protein pancakes.
There's a big misconception on high protein diets. It creates gains, but it's not the best for long term health and there are other ways to get similar gains while being a much healthier person.

CleverPilot... what are you trying to accomplish? Greater strength or leaner muscle?
For greater strength: put more weights on the bar and do less reps (3-5 instead of 8-10). Lift 2 times a week. It's almost like you are trying to max out every workout.
For leaner muscle: higher reps, lower weight... 3-4 times per week.
Food. Rest. Water. All important.
You have to change your workout every 4 to 6 weeks to keep shredding your muscles. For instance, I leveled off on my benchpress. Couldn't add strength for weeks. Stopped doing benchpress and went to dumbell flies for a few weeks. Came back to the bench and jumped 30 lbs. in my max.
Anyway... those are a few tips.

You have to up your calorie intake, specifically carbs. Gaining muscle is 70% diet and 30% lifting. I know people that spend hours in the gym, but they don't have a proper diet. They aren't doing anything but maintaining.

Lots of factors.
1.) Find a program you like and will stick to.
2.) Progressive Overload (Said program should have a progression plan) Ex: 5x5 routine works for beginners. You are supposed to add 5 lbs every week to the primary lifts (bench, squat, deadlift)
3.) Eat, Eat, Eat
4.) .8-1 gram of protein per lean lb. of bodyweight.
5.) Get enough sleep. (7-8 hours)

Time under tension is the only advice that has been worthwhile in this thread.

I've been using tires for a while to get stronger forearms, biceps, triceps and back. Functional strength with mass added on.
I've been thinking about getting some tractor tires. How is it working for you?

Don't be a bitch on your squats either.
1. Do them.
2. Get low. Drop the crease of your hip below your knee. None of this panty waist half squat Barack Obama horse shite.

Tires are kind of a gimmick.
It's more of a way to have a little fun doing something different.
If you have access to them, cool. But not worth going out to get.
Get on the gymnastic rings.
