Skinny guys! Are you eating ALOT of calories and still not gaining weight?
This is something I did NOT understand. I was eating a bunch of calories (fried chicken, mashed potatoes, sausage, sandwiches, chips, pizza, eggo waffles, candy, fast food) but still not gaining weight. Then I learned something that changed my life...
1) Quality over quantity - just cause you are trying to gain weight does not mean you can eat a bunch of crap...you need phytonutrients and the right amount of protein, carbs and fats! You need to eat foods that will STICK TO YOUR BONES!
When you eat these junk foods high in trans fats, simple carbs and highly processed foods your body processes them like sugar and it passes right through your body.
2) Nutrient timing- there are a lot of debates on this but I believe everyone is a bit different and we have different body types. Right now I'm speaking to the ectomorphs (guys that have a hard time gaining muscle). Eat about 30mins before you leave for the gym, have a carb drink such as CR7 + BCAA during your workout and enjoy a post workout shake after your workout then a post workout meal to follow!
3 ) Exercise based on the goal that you are aiming for- if you're not gaining muscle and you're eating well then it's likely you're style of exercise is NOT CONDUCIVE to the body you want
If you want to look like a bodybuilder train like a bodybuilder. If you want to look like and athlete train like an athlete. If you want o look like a powerlifter then train like a powerlifter! I recommend mixing in all of the above and experiment with all types of fitness with an EMPHASIS on BODYBUILDING style workouts. Ex: 5 sets of 10 with 5-6 different exercises.
What's working for you??
