If you have a naturally skinny build like me, you’re probably no stranger to weight gain supplements! And if you’re a skinny build and you haven’t used weight gainers, now is the time to start! Weight gainers are great for thin guys looking to put on some serious mass. The reason being, when you’re thin and looking to bulk it’s all about getting enough calories. Fast metabolisms mean skinny builds need more calories that your average to put on some size.
So today I’m going to look at how to choose a good weight gain supplement. There are hundreds of weight gainers on the market, all ranging in price, calories and ingredients.
It’s Q&A time again! I got the same question 3 times this week, so I think I should address it here since the answer was the same for each of the 3 people that wrote in and asked the question. The questions all went something like this:
I just got wind of this new product: Zone Diets High Protein Pasta (pictured right)
If you want to grow bigger you have to eat more calories that you burn, every day. For some people that’s easy, but for others it can be a huge task! There are loads of ways you can ensure you get the calories you need to grow, even if you have a busy lifestyle. I have received a number of emails from readers telling me “it’s impossible to eat that much”, or “I don’t get time to eat that much”. If you have that problem, help is at hand!
I’ve always liked eating protein bars. I always have a few laying around the house, I keep some at work and I take them when I do other outdoor sports like hiking and mountain bike riding. I’ve tried a few over the years, about half of which I didn’t like the taste/texture of at all!
Today I thought I’d post an example of a good 3,500 calorie bodybuilding diet. This dies does take some preparation time. I recommend you bulk cook and freeze/refrigerate most of your meals so your diet is easy to stick to. If your diet is too hard to prepare chances are you won’t be able to stick to it long term.
Building muscle works like this…in the gym you break down your muscles with intense, heavy lifting. This training creates millions of tiny tears in the muscle. The inflammation caused, combined with extra blood in the muscle, is the reason why your muscles looked “pumped” when you train. Out of the gym you feed your muscles the right fuel enabling them to repair and grow more tissue to adapt to the requirements of your training.
Today I’m go to go through the basics of constructing a bodybuilding diet. Many new lifters I talk to are completely confused about how much food they should be eating to build muscle without gaining too much fat. I’m going to take the confusion out of creatine a diet right now by showing you how simple it is!
From what I have been reading around the web on forums and in bodybuilding magazines, many lifters are still confused about what they should put in their post workout shake. So I thought I’d post up what I consider to be the ultimate post workout shake. This is the combination that I have used for years with solid results.
