      title said you aren't gaining and you are asking for help.

      now you say you lift heavy and you are gaining mass.

      so whats the question then?

      Mrricco, seriously... you aren't doing your reps even close to failure... Are you?

      30 sets of 8 tells me you are watching your grandma's workout videos. Do like 5 sets of 8 for a couple exercises per muscle, and make sure that 8th rep is hard to complete.

      Dude, seriously, I already quoted the important part. 3x8 is a good set/rep scheme. Your lifting frequency isn't obscene and your split is fine. All you have to do is start only doing 1 or 2 exercises for each body part and you'll start gaining. This is not hard.

      Then cut back volume a bit and focus on the exercises that really matter.
