Everyone who goes to the gym and lifts weights wants to build muscle and get stronger. It is very easy for some to gain a lot of muscle without much effort. But other guys, who are not as talented, train for hours in the gym, but still have nothing to show for it.
There are so many people who struggle to gain muscle and are considered skinny and underweight, maybe you are one of them. But if you’re not as talented as most men, it doesn’t mean you can’t gain muscle mass. The skinny ones just have to play by different setup rules. You can’t expect to gain muscle doing the same thing as your more talented friend. Don’t listen to people who say it’s impossible to gain weight because of your genetics. I will give you some tips that will help you gain muscle mass quickly. Then let’s get started!
eat twice as much
To gain muscle you have to eat, especially if you are a skinny guy. If you eat 2 slices of bread in the morning, then try to eat 4. If you only eat one chicken breast per meal, cook two. If you are having one protein powder drink per day, then have two. You just have to consume more calories.
Diet is the most important factor
You may already know this, but you have to eat after every 2-3 hours every day. It is very important that you eat and do not skip meals. If you have trouble remembering, set a timer. After a while you get used to eating every 2-3 hours. Breakfast is and will always be the most important meal of the day. You have to eat breakfast 15-30 minutes after waking up. This is very important. Your breakfast also has to be packed with quality nutrients and packed with calories.
eat before training
It is very important to eat real food before going to the gym. The biggest mistake you can make is skipping meals before going to the gym. You also have to eat after you have completed your training. If you haven’t eaten before training, then you don’t have fuel to build muscle. You can’t drive your car without fuel, right?
Eat foods with a lot of nutrients.
People who have trouble gaining muscle have to eat and the food has to be of high quality. Avoid foods with empty calories. Eat a high-calorie meal loaded with slow-releasing carbohydrates, protein, fat, vitamins, minerals, and fiber. For example.
Carbohydrates: oats, rice, breads, yams, beans, potatoes, fruits and vegetables.
Proteins: steak, chicken, lean beef, cottage cheese, whole milk, eggs, and salmon.
Fats: olive oil, flax oil, avocados, nuts, and peanut butter.
Extras (high calorie cheat meal): ice cream, grapes, nuts and trail mix.
Food has to be your best friend and you need a lot of food to progress. You can easily gain 20-30lbs of muscle very quickly. But you have to work a little harder in the gym and eat more high-quality food.
