Hey Steemers....Steemies,
It's Chris again. Today I just wanted to give you some info on why skinny guys have such a difficult time putting on muscle and thus becoming a mesomorph. Most skinny guys fall into the ectomorph category - high metabolism, thin, etc. Many want to put on muscle but fail because they do one thing very very wrong.
The #1 mistake is that YOU are not eating enough calorie dense foods. But there's even more to it than that. if you want to supercharge your gains then listen up. Here are some tips I want to give you on gaining size and muscle.
Eat often and eat caloric dense foods. Pastas, Burgers, Pizza. Go for it. It's not forever - just to get you to the foundation step of the process. Once you have the foundation you want to start from - then I say eat cleaner - maybe organic, non gmo, etc etc. But keep it "dirty" as they say until you reach your ideal foundation.
Perform these compound lifts: bench press, bent over barbell row, overhead press w barbell, squat , deadlift. You shouldn't be focusing on much more than those lifts. Why? Those lifts involve many muscles to perform correctly. The more muscles you can exercise and then replenish afterwards, the bigger you typically get. In addition, these 5 exercises have been positively correlated to more testosterone production in men. Amazing! Real testosterone from your own body! See, you can be muscular and not resort to the black market if you really want solid gains. Do it the right way - stay ethical!
Record those lifts in a journal - always aim to get stronger. Perform sets of each and adopt a strength protocol like 5x5, ascending pyramid, or my favorite, descending pyramid.
Last, you have to get good sleep. Aim for the type of sleep that makes you dream. 6-8 hours of good uninterrupted sleep will work wonders for your CNS and your muscles. Get that sleep!
I hope you found value in this - follow me on my youtube channel for more stuff or if you even want to see the stuff above on a video! Youtube: Boddamn
