I'm about 6'2 and really skinny. I want to gain some muscle mass, but I don't have access to very much equipment. I have a treadmill and a rowing machine. What kind of things should I eat, and what would be a good regime for me to use to gain muscle mass. I obviously don't want to loose weight so that's not an issue. How long would it be before I notice any noticeable difference? Thanks in advance.
Hi there! Well, first things first; you say you are skinny. Gain weight first. You need fat to build muscle. Between 5 and 10 kilos should do the trick. Second; when you have gained weight, start eating lots of proteine, they are the muscle's building blocks. You'll find it in pork, chicken, turkey, shrimps etc. Third; with a tread mill and a rowing machine, you'll have more than enough:) Start wormin up, some people need longer than others, but you should really fil hot and start sweating. So then you could work on your rowing machine, they almost take every muscle in your body after what I have hard. But I also recomend pushups, squats, and situps(also do situps for your back! Very important!). Don't do crunches, they suck! Do one of these, or both, in stead; lie on your back, lift your feet in a 45 degree angle from the floor, and write the numbers from 1 to 10 in the air, and down again. The other one is just like it, but here you rais your feet all the way towards the roof, and use your abs to lift your bum of the floor as high as you can. For your triceps(muscle just beneth your elbow), turn your back to a bed, chair or something, but your hands on the edge, and then sit down on the floor. Use your arms to pull yourself up and down. This should be more than enough to get you started. Remember to dring lots of water and monitor your progress. It will help your motivation. Search the web for more exercises you can do without equipment. How long it will take depends on your genes and how hard you work, so it's difficult to say. Anyway, good luck!
what you have to is consume fatty meals, however healthful fat. avocados, meats, brown rice, healthful carbs, and do that five-7 occasions an afternoon. if you set your self up in this vitamin, start figuring out. do not do aerobic exercises that burn energy, do exercises so as to permit you to attain muscle tissues. weight coaching (all kinds so long as it entails weights), squats, lunges, going for walks on a tred mill (up hill), suicides, eliptical. then, you'll start gaining muscle tissues alternatively of getting the tilt muscle tissues you have got now in view that your frame is consuming heavier meals and turning the meals into muscle instaed of burning it off.
Prison work out! use your body weight and up your calorie intake and you should muscle up... Your not going to grow over night, but if you do this for a few months...(like at least 5) and you hit it hard with the push ups pull ups and so forth, you pack on some muscle. Might not gain weight though, just tone up what you are now. if you have like 200 bucks to spend, buy the P90X! people might hate on this program because it's on late at night tv. Trust me if you use this program you will litterally change in 90 days just like the people on tv!!!! It super hard, but anything that buffs you up that fast isn't easy which is why people hate on it, because they can't hang. It's a complete at home system, no gym, little stuff to buy and just stick to the program and it works. If you just want to gain weight, not very healthy, but stop doing anything and play xbox live and stuff your face!!! If you do this for 5 months straight and pound back the fast food, and you don't gain at least 20 pounds, I envy you, because all it takes for me to is a week of fast food and soda's and I could go up 5-15 pounds easy! Check that P90X out I did it to prepare for my Police academy. Won't lie couldn't hang with the diet program and had to take days off here and there but I went from doing 3 pull ups and 25 push ups set to 35 pull ups and at least 60 push up sets!
