You wouldn't believe how much milk I've drank all my life... like 1 liter per day. I think we have vitamin D added in milk here in Finland.

The ratio of calcium to phosphorus isn't nearly as great though. No vitamin C or iron either. "Complete" to me would mean naturally occurring whole elements with an ability to stave off and prevent every/any nutritional deficiency. Like you could drink and subsist on just milk alone, at any stage of your life, and live long in total health. While milk is pretty great, it's not a perfect food in that sense, especially after pasteurization.

If you're looking for a food that has the correct ratio or protein/carbs/fats and has most vitamins and minerals, it doesn't exist. Complete just means it mas protein, carbs and fat in nearly the correct ratios.
You could survive on whole milk for quite a while. Yes, pasteurization & homogenazation ruins a lot of the benefits of Milk, but Milk is still good for you and you could still live on it if you had to.

It makes sense that if you are right handed and have spent your whole life picking up and carrying things predominatly in the right hand then maybe the right side of your body would get slighty stronger. Or vise versa if you are left handed.

I am left-handed, yes... very much so.
I'm not making much progress either. But I know that since I'm not putting on any fat, I could be eating more. Maybe I'm not getting stronger because I'm not putting on muscle, which takes food.
If you are putting on fat and you are not getting stronger, then something else is wrong. Maybe your workout, maybe the kind of food you are eating, maybe even your sleep.
I'm also not drinking enough water. I even get head aches if I go a day without drinking much. I workout very hard in the gym though. I do my 18 sets in 40 minutes.

If you're not progressing in strength and muscle mass, you're not eating enough, and aren't training correctly.
The only way to grow is to eat.
The only way to get stronger is to ask your muscles to do more work. If you bench 200lbs on Monday, the next Monday try to bench 205. You should be able to add strength very quickly as a beginner.
All those people you see in the gym that lift 200lbs last year and still lift 200lbs this year...Guess what, next year they'll lift 200lbs. Your muscles adapt to whatever stress you put them under. If you never ask more of them, how are they going to grow and get stronger?

It's easier to just artifically activate your testosterone if you are willing to pay $50 a month on hap insurance.
When I start working out, I'll get the doctor to up the dosage.

you still need to eat a lot of the right stuff at the right time. And your workouts stimulate HGH, not just testosterone. You also need to make your muscles sensitive to testosterone. Steroids help, but you still have to do stuff right or they won't do anything for you except help you keep what you have.

Beginner = Every workout
Intermediate = Every week
As a beginner, you can add weight very quickly since your body adapts so well. Beginner gains, in both size and strength, rival steroid gains...And sometimes are better.
Intermediate, you've reached a level where your body can not recover quick enough to go heavier every consecutive workout. You need to start a bit of planning, but you can increase the weight every week.
Both examples assume your diet and sleep is right. With poor diet and poor sleep, you're screwed.

Use Creatine, it help with building lean body mass, and havin protien with every meal during the day is key ..
