If you are naturally thin and can’t seem to gain much muscle then continue reading.

Start consuming more healthy calories and protein. To gain weight you need to eat more calories than you are burning. If you aren’t getting enough protein and healthy calories then you will gain fat not muscle.

Buy 100% whey protein. You can visit a GNC store or go to their website to find protein mixes. There are different flavors but I usually stick with vanilla because some of the other flavors can be just awful. You should start consuming your protein shakes directly before you work out and directly after you work out. Some body builders will even consume a third protein shake while working out. To gain weight you must be dedicated.

Start consuming more protein. Lean meats such as fish, chicken, and lean beef are the best sources of protein. Consuming low fat milk and cheese is also a great way to intake extra protein. Protein is essential in building muscle and gaining weight.

Start eating lots of fresh vegetables. Eating one cup of spinach a day can help you gain solid muscle, not fat, while bulking up. Eating steamed veggies everyday is a great way to get the vitamins your body needs to gain weight. 

Eat a good breakfast. Your breakfast should contain a cup of whole grain, high protein cereal such as Kashi’s “Go Lean.” Your breakfast should also contain 4-5 egg whites and two fish oil pills.

Try to eat six meals a day which all contain veggies, lean meats, fruits, and some milk and cheese. You don’t need to stuff yourself on every meal either.

Start a work out routine. Life heavy weights with a low amount of reps to help build fast twitch muscles which are bulkier muscles then slow twitch muscles. A lot of sets and reps build slow twitch muscles and can prevent you from gaining weight. You should not run any marathon races while trying to bulk up, you should only do sprint training for cardio workouts. You can gain 1-2 healthy pounds a week. Sticking to a strict diet and work out routine could possibly gain you 12-24 pounds in only 3 months which is a lot of muscle mass in a short period of time.

Always consult with a doctor before undertaking any new work out plan.

Always take a week off after a month of straight weight lifting to help your body recover and then come back with a new routine to help keep your body guessing.

Lifting weights can be dangerous and you should consult a professional trainer to properly learn how to weight lift.
