The Skinny Guy’s Guide To Muscle Building And Nutrition

It is not that all people are obese or have a healthy body. Some men are skinny too. Some of them are so skinny that they look like a walking skeleton with a living skin on. Like an obese person finds it tough to lose weight, similarly, the skinny guy finds it very difficult to gain weight and muscle mass. Being skinny is equally frustrating like being obese. The only difference is in obesity you have to come down the weight ladder, and in skinniness, you have to climb up. Skinny guys too feel the frustration as they are not able to have a healthy body and often termed as underweight.

As losing weight is not easy, so is gaining weight as well. You have to start from the scratch put some muscle mass and add healthy weight to your body. But it is a process that you need to follow religiously as nothing happens overnight. The good thing is that you have nothing to lose and everything to gain. Here are some useful tips that the skinny men can adopt and start their journey for adding muscle mass and weight to their body.
Eat frequently
If you seriously want to add some serious muscle mass and weight to your body, depending just on three square meals won’t help you. If you try to swallow your required nutrition in only three meals a day, it might lead to problems like bloating, indigestion and unwanted body fats. Instead, start eating small meals every 2 to 3 hours time. It will not exert any pressure on you for having all your nutrients in one go as you will continue to feed your body with energy and nutrition slowly but constantly. It will work for you in a miraculous way and start adding weight to your skinny body.

Have varieties of food
Eating the same thing every day becomes quite mechanical and boring eventually. You may get the nutrition in three different times like breakfast, lunch, and dinner but the food remains the same. To break the chain of boredom, you must try different foods and rotate them randomly. It is one of the best strategies for healthy eating and putting on weight and adding muscle mass to your body. Make sure that you have all the nutrients in the foods that you alternately change.

Get enough calories
Low calorie diet is for overweight people not for skinny men. The road to building muscle and gaining weight goes through eating calories. If a high-calorie diet alone is not helping then add some extra carbohydrates and proteins to your diet like breakfast, pre-workout meal and post-workout meal. There is no other way than this. Calories will work like a fuel that will put your weight gaining engine in motion.

Consume 40 to 60 grams of protein per meal
Proteins are building blocks of your muscles, and it should be an important component of your diet. Men who are underweight or skinny should have at least 40 to 60 grams of protein in their food per meal for increasing their muscle mass, improve recovery and keep the body fat level low.

Have 60 to 80 grams of carbohydrate per meal
Like protein, carbohydrates are an essential element that you should have in your diet regularly to add muscle mass and weight to your body. Lack of carbohydrates in your food can slow down the muscle building process, and your muscle tissues can be used up as energy in the absence of carbs. Therefore, it is important that you add up 60 to 80 grams of carbohydrates daily in your every meal for gaining some real muscle mass and weight.
