Im trying to gain 10 pounds and I find it impossible to make my weight move on the scale, Ive been eating a high calorie diet this whole week and my weight literally didnt move even one tenth of a pound, I was thinking of buying a weight gain supplement. Any suggestions on how I can gain any weight effectively?
Let me give you my advice Masterstyle...First your diet, since you want to gain weight, you should eat foods that have fat, protein, and carbs in it and no sugar. When you eat sugar you are destroying the muscle that you worked out at the gym or whatever. One cookie destroys a hard 45 minute workout. My advice is not to weigh yourself everyday because when you do that you will keep saying to yourself that im not gaining any weight which you really are it is just that you want results fast. If you eat fattening foods and no sugar (includes sodas, cookies, candy etc.) and do a good 45 minute workout around 6 times a week building muscle, you will gain around 10 pounds a month. Trust me it is a total mental and physicological battle. If you can withstand the first month (which is the hardest) all that the fat that you were eating will turn into muscle. After your first weigh in after a month, you should not see SIGNIFICANT improvements but you should see some if you have kept true to your diet and your workout routine. But trust me after the first month, you will see major gains and will skyrocket the scales. I can't tell you exactly what kind of exercise that you like or the exercise that you want to do but do whatever exercise you do in the weight room and keep the diet and you will receive results.
