Answer:
It is tougher
to make gains in muscle mass when you've got
the conditions you've got.
For eating, you
should focus on getting plenty of protein from
sources you can tolerate well. Also, get as
many of your calories from natural sources of
food (no processed foods). Eat smaller, frequent
meals so that your system doesn't get bogged
down with digesting.
As far as training
goes, that is a bit tougher. I would recommend
a system called "Escalating
Density Training" by Charles Staley.
It's based on time periods and doing gradually
more work within those time periods.
It's an excellent
program - you could easily adapt it if you needed
to shorten the time periods you're working with.
You don't necessarily need to lift heavy on
this program - it's based on doing more and
more within set time intervals, building the
body up based on volume, not necessarily heavy
weight.
I've also got
a variation of this style of density training
that I call Time/Volume
Training, which you could also use to great
effect. It manipulates rest periods while keeping
reps to 3 reps per set.
