Are you tired of being the typical "stick boy" or "thin guy"? If so, try these nine tips to gain muscle and combat your metabolism to get the body you want.


Today we want to share some quality tips to gain weight. We warn you that these tips are really only for skinny guys who really want to gain weight because they hardly have any meat in their bones. We know what it is to eat at all hours and have the feeling of not being able to teach anything. Or the opposite, that everyone tells you how lucky you are to be able to eat everything and not get fat. These people do not understand that for thin boys not being able to get fat is more a curse than a blessing.

Do not ever say "I've tried everything and nothing works". This is the biggest lie you can tell yourselves. At most, you may have tried a couple of things but believe us, you have never followed the good advice. That's why, here are the 9 tips to start gaining weight. We assure you that they will work for you.

Train less than an hour

Continue with the exercise program provided by your gym but without spending more than 1 hour of training. Be clear that it is more important to focus on maintaining a high intensity than to never stop working the muscles. Also, there is no study that confirms that doing a marathon session in the gym is better for muscle growth. Focus on keeping your rest periods at least a minute and limit small talks with the other members of the gym.

Make eating a habit

To gain weight you must focus and be aware of making meals a habit rather than an additional thing to training. Your body is preprogrammed with your genetics. And in your case, you have a very fast metabolism that digests and burns carbohydrates quickly. Focus on eating meals of 500-600 calories apart every 2-3 hours so that you have your metabolism constantly working and building muscle.

Stop relying on supplements

You have to understand that the supplements as the name suggests are only supplements. They are not going to make you stronger in the gym. The only supplements we recommend are powdered proteins and perhaps some Gatorade after the exercises.

Take it easy

Like thin guys you must stop moving so much everywhere. Learn to relax a bit more and try to limit your activity outside the gym as much as possible to use your energy only for a good purpose.

Understand the caloric superhábit

We have heard countless times "No matter what you do or what you eat, there is no way to gain weight". Many people believe that they eat a lot and that therefore they should get fat. But no matter what you eat, if you do not gain weight, it means that you do not eat enough. Many times, you will have to re-evaluate your diet to focus on more dense and caloric foods. The point is that you must eat more if you are not getting fatter.

Also, when it comes to changing the composition of the body, sometimes you will have to "force" things a little. Your body does not want to change and does not mind gaining weight. You have to persuade him, and yes, sometimes it can be a bit uncomfortable.

Focus on progress

As we said before, your training should not last more than an hour. But the first thing to keep in mind is to be sure that progress is being made with the exercises. It's very simple but a lot of people annoy it. They train more and more time until their workouts last up to 2 hours.

If you really want to gain weight you have to focus on progressing and not counting the number of repetitions you do or the weight gain in the machines. This will only bring your body to the limit.


Change the range of repetitions every 3-4 weeks

Unless you are making great progress in your workouts, we suggest you change the repetition interval every 3-4 weeks to avoid stagnation. Changing the range of repetitions will make your body adapt to the new "stress" making you gain weight in muscle.

Sack the buffet

Remember that this is only for the guys really very thin ... and that is that you must start going to a buffet once a week. Try to eat hysterically in a buffet after a hard workout so that the calories go directly to the muscles and thus gain weight. Neither do it in a very exaggerated way, but this will train your body to "accept" more food and therefore it will increase your appetite. Take advantage of this strategy.

Consider a Mass Gainer

We know that before we criticized industrial supplements, but the truth is that if you can not eat more food, you should consider a mass gainer. The mass gainer are basically calories in the form of a shake. So, instead of eating rice and chicken you can replace it with a smoothie.

This is an option also for long hours. Still, be sure to eat at least three intense meals a day and do not take more than three supplement shakes a day. Even better, make your own natural juices with fruits and protein powders. So, start putting these tips into action in your day to day and you will see right away how you start to gain weight.
