The Best Workout For Skinny Guys
Are you ready to learn how to gain weight? Are you sick and tired of people who have never been skinny a day in their lives telling you, the skinny guy, how to gain weight? What do they know about it? They just wake up everyday and enjoy their lives. Well, it's time for you to be able to do the same.
Like you, I was a skinny guy most of my life, and I'm going to save you a lot of time and headache by sharing with you the real way to gain weight. My name is Joe Taylor, and I'm an ectomorph. I'm 6'2 and weighed about 150lbs in High School. I was fortunate enough to learn how to put on pounds by age 19, and I've weighed between 180- 195 pounds ever since. I think I'm fairly qualified to write this article, because I have been in your shoes; unlike most people who write these articles.
The first step to gaining weight is understanding your genetics and how fast your Ferrari metabolism really is. We are a rare breed and have genetics that a lot of people would kill for. Think about it, it's almost impossible for us to get fat! We can eat anything we want, and don't really have to work out to stay lean / thin. So think of being an ectomorph as a blessing in disguise.
On the other hand, we want to get bigger. But it isn't just us. Even the medium and larger sized guys are in the gym too. Even they are trying to get bigger. It's just something men want to do; we want to put on more size. Here are the steps required for skinny guys to put on the mass.

Skinny Guy Food
Planning your diet will account for about 80% of your success. Without the food, you can't grow, and you won't have the energy to workout at the level you're required to actually put on muscle mass. You will have to use your brain a little here. Only you know your schedule and what foods you have access to. Look at the Bodybuilding food list below and put together a Bodybuilding diet for your schedule. Okay boys, lets get our Skinny Guy Diet Plan!
- NO empty calories Forget the soda, candy bars, and junk food. No No No
- Chicken High in protein, can be prepared lots of different ways. Get used to chicken, you'll need lotttttts of it. After a while it will get old so load up on your favorite low sodium seasonings. Aim for 8-10 ounces of chicken per day
- Turkey High in protein, tastes great, easy to digest, and makes for a quick meal. Can be used to replace chicken once in a while. Great for snacks and intermediate meals.
- Eggs Highest biological value of protein of all foods (minus whey protein isolate powder), quick and easy to prepare, great nutritional value. 4-6 of these per day will do the trick.
- Vegetables Spinach salad, kale, broccoli etc. We need balance, and vitamins. You will be putting your body through some stress with all the food and training, so we need to make sure we keep the toxins out, and keep your body happy. Don't cheat!
- Potatoes / Sweet Potatoes High in starch and complex carbs, you will need at least 1 potato on training days.
