Eat lots and lots of protein while working out for about 6 days a week for one hour each session. Work abs 2x a week and everything else once a week but for a routine buy one of those muscle mags with those steriod taking guys on it and it'll provide a lot of useful information in there because you have to have great form whenever working out or you won't get anything from it. I've been in the army for 5 years now.

God may have made you thin for a reason. Why don't you just relax and allow your body to figure out what it wants. Later on when you get older your body will gain weight, it's natural. God bless

orion, just shut it. If someone wants to change their body to the way the want it to look it's their choice and you should respect their choices. God may, or may not have intended on people's frames. It is just a lame excuse for people to be lazy.

Hum interesting. I have the same issue except for I'm really cautious what I consume and how often I excercise since I'm already thin. Consuming junk food is simply NOT the answer.

Keep in mind though, while your caloric intake will directly influence your bodyweight, it will be other factors like the types of food you eat and your weight training regimen that decide the type of weight you are putting on. So if you are after an aesthetically pleasing weight gain, that of lean muscle weight as opposed to just some extra body fat to lug around, it will be important to pay attention to these factors.

To get the most muscle out of your weight gain, avoid the junk food and focus on eating whole foods. A good weight gain diet should be composed of 30-50% protein, 20-50% carbohydrates and 20-40% fat (the majority of which should be essential fatty acids). Different ratios within these ranges will work differently for different people. Keep up your food journal and experiment to find the ratios that work best for you.

Providing your body with the materials it needs to build muscle is only one piece of the puzzle. A weight training program designed to give the body a reason to add some muscle will be very important to achieving your goals. Your workout routines should concentrate on compound weight lifting exercises (those that involve multiple muscle groups like the squat or bench press) with weights that allow you to do 6 to 12 reps per set. Higher rep ranges will tone your muscles but may not sufficiently signal the body into muscle growth. Try to either increase the amount of weight lifted or the reps completed with each workout.

Don't go overboard with your workouts. Two or three one-hour workouts per week done with intensity should do the trick. Too often those that have trouble gaining weight (hardgainers) spend too much time in the gym. This can be counterproductive in two ways. First, it means you are burning off a lot of the calories that could otherwise be used to build muscle and, second, you can over-train your muscles by working them too hard, basically making them unresponsive.

A high-quality multivitamin and mineral supplement is a good idea to make sure you are getting all of the vitamins and minerals you need. Some people find that their muscle mass increases with protein supplements that contain certain blends of amino acids such as creatine and glutamine. Some people who are very ill may need liquid nutritional preparations that are available through their doctors.

With a little motivation, a weight gain diet and a solid weight training program in place you will have all you need to achieve your gain weight goals.
