Although there are a lot of guys out there that are trying to lose weight and get into shape, there are also guys out there that actually want to gain weight!

So if you are one of those guys out there like I was who are "suffering" from scrawniness, this article is for you my friends... I'm going to give you a few sure fire tips to help you gain weight. These tips are practically fool proof. I should know because I have used them all on myself! So if you really want to gain weight please pay attention to the following tips and you will be well on your way to seeing some massive results on no time!Your first free weight gaining tip is to use proper weight training and exercise form. Lower your weights in a slower fashion, focusing on being in 100% control of the weight. This will reduce the risk of injury. Furthermore, your muscles will be stimulated properly because you focused on control and tension of your muscles, not just heaving and dropping the weights using momentum. Proper form will improve your recovery time because you will not have to concern yourself with recovering from an injury.

It is important that just as when trying to lose weight you count the number of calories you consume on a daily basis. But whereas when losing weight you only want to consume sufficient amounts that you burn. In order to gain the weight you actually need to consume more than your body actually burns. Ideally you should be eating around an extra 500 calories each day in order to help put weight on quickly. So if for example you currently eat 2,000 calories each day in order to put weight on you need to increase this up to 2,500.When you're trying to gain weight you have to eat the right foods. Try to avoid the junk foods or greasy foods, as they are not a healthy way to gain weight. You must increase your calorie intake to add pounds to your body, but they have to come from food sources that are good for you.

Weight gain can actually be quite easy if it is done in the right fashion and a person really is determined to change their figure. Weight gain can be done with supplementation, a lot of food, and a very strict weight training routine. Supplementation is a very important part of gaining weight. The most recommended supplement is protein shakes. Protein shakes are a very easy way to acquire the extra amount of protein needed to rebuild your fatigued muscles. The best time to take these shakes is up to the user but for best results one must include a shake before and after every workout.I recommend two physical activities while you are on your weight gain diet. First you need to go jogging or play a sport for at least 30 minutes a day, 3-4 times a week. Next activity is the obvious gym work out. The exact training at the gym I don't know since it varies from person to person. The best is to talk to a qualified instructor at the gym and get them to setup a program that fit you.If you maintain a steady pace that you're comfortable with, you won't have to worry about losing or hurting those muscles that you've worked so hard to get. The trick is knowing which type of workout will produce the best results for you. Following weight gaining tips will help you achieve your goal, but to stay in shape, you will need to find the exercises that are right for you.
