Weight Gain Tips - How to Gain Weight -

While the vast majority of people want to lose weight, there is a sizeable population that wants learn how to gain weight fast. These folks won’t get any sympathy from the overweight crowd. But, being skinny or slim can bother some individuals as much as being overweight can bother others.


Fastest Way to Gain Weight

Here’s some weight gaining tips for those who want to pack on muscle and bulk up. These tips helped me pack on 50 pounds of bulk over the course of a few years. They really work.

1. You must work out with solid, core-building weightlifting exercises, such as the leg squat, the deadlift, clean and press, dips, chin ups, bench press, etc.

2. Get plenty of sleep and plenty of rest. Growth hormone is released during deep sleep cycles, which helps grow your muscles. Your muscles grow on your resting days, not the days when you are working out. Get adequate rest.

3. What you do right after your workouts can speed up the process. Read these post workout tips.

4. Eat enough quality foods – we recommend 5 small meals spread out throughout the day. Make sure each meal has good protein, carbs, and fruits or vegetables.

5. Make sure you are taking in enough protein. This is critical.

6. Drink a lot of whole milk (for older men, watch the cholesterol in the whole milk – switch to lowfat milk).

7. For huge muscle gains, try the 20 Rep Squat Program (read more about the squat exercise). This program is especially recommended for hardgainers, which is a term for those whose personal metabolism and make up make it especially hard for them to gain muscle and pack on pounds.

8. Cardio exercise is healthy but it is hard to gain weight if you are doing too much cardio training.
