One Great Tip For Weight Loss That Works
If you have an ectomorph body type then you understand what a hard gainer has to go through. And while friends may look and wish they could be as thin as you; you're wishing you could gain weight. Trying many of the diet and workout programs out there have produced little results. What you need to understand is your body type isn't like other types who can benefit from those programs. You need to develop your own ectomorph weight gain program and life style.
Whether it's to boost your confidence, attract the girl of your dreams, or simply the exquisite feeling of being in the best physical condition of your life - these 3 keys to 'muscle & how to gain weight naturally wizardry' should form the backbone of any plan for rapid and healthy weight gain.
Most importantly though - try not to get too hung up on the fast weight gain gain charts. Use the numbers as GUIDELINES only and try not to weigh yourself too often - in fact, I recommend only weighing-in at the doctor's office.
Rice Milk, Hemp Milk, Coconut Milk: Skinny hard gainers will do well to include all these kinds of milk in their muscle building program. They are good on the digestive system in addition to the large amounts of healthy calories they provide.
The last and sometimes most difficult necessity for teenagers to gain weight is rest. Sleep is when your body recovers and synthesizes new muscle tissue. Growth hormone levels increase during REM sleep which is another powerful muscle building hormone. Lack of sleep increases cortisol levels and cortisol is a muscle destroying hormone that can add fat to the waistline. Have you ever seen a skinny guy with a fat belly? That is probably due to excess cortisol. It does the opposite of testosterone by metabolizing muscle and adding fat to the belly. Get a minimum of 8 hours of sleep and 10 is even better for active teens. This means staying up until 3am to play Halo 3 with your pals is going to hurt you unless you can sleep until noon.
