No Gain Syndrome 

No Gain Syndrome or NGS, is a term used to describe people who start going to the gym for the first time on a regular basis who truly believe they are experience no gains in muscle mass.

Of course it is all in their heads, and NGS usually subsides after 6-8 months of solid lifting.

This syndrome can sometimes be followed by the 'I need to start using gear because, that guy is bigger than me complex'.

"I have been lifting for 3 months, and I still don't feel like I'm getting any gains." -Brandon

"It's all in your head you just have No Gain Syndrome, stop being such a bitch." -Sam
