  • Stop Listening To Those That Blame Genetics Because Of No Muscle Weight Gain
    Just about all weight training individuals pretty much know that when they take on an exercise regimen to how to gain weight there are several factors that play a role in the amount of muscle that can be built, with the genetics handed down to them by "mom and dad" being one of them.
  • Shaping Exercises Build Just As Much Muscle
    One of the biggest misconceptions that has been around for decades is that in order to gain muscle mass and gain weight you "must" do certain exercises. 9 times out of 10 those recommended are "the big compound movements", like bench presses, squats, and military presses.
  • The Cheapest Supplement In The World For Building Muscle
    Bodybuilding supplements are one of the main things that those looking to gain muscle from their workout program place their hopes on. Billions of dollars have been spent on workout supplements such as creatine, NO2, prohormones (when they were available), testosterone boosters, post workout shakes, and protein powder hoping to build muscle mass.
  • Raise Your Natural Hormones To Build Muscle Mass
    Quick question: What's more important to gain muscle mass, the amount of weight you lift or the amount of natural anabolic hormones your body releases in response to muscular stress (as is the case when performing a set)?
  • Isolation Exercises Will Build More Muscle & Weight
    One of the big factors that many talk about when searching for the correct ways to gain weight and build muscle is the type of exercises selected for each muscle group.
  • Nitric Oxide: Can It Help You Gain Muscle Weight?
    Nitric Oxide, also know as "N.O.", is one of the latest supplements to hit the market, promising muscle mass and allowing you to gain weight. Can this supplement in fact help you to gain muscle and build mass?
  • If You Want To Gain Muscle Weight Avoid Cardio!
    As soon as I stopped doing cardio, concentrated on proper heavy, intense weight lifting I immediately noticed that my muscles would remain “full”, I had a lot of energy, and I was able to burn fat a lot faster and easier while maintaining most of my muscle mass gains.
  • Avoid Aspirin If You Want To Build Muscle Mass
    A lot of people believe that taking a NSAID (non-steroidal inflammatory drug), like aspirin, will help relieve some of the soreness we feel when we train with weights when our goal is to build muscle mass and gain weight.
  • Why You Don't Need Supplements To Gain Muscle
    Supplements such as NO2, creatine, ribose, HMB, CLA, glutamine, myostatin inhibitors, and others are flying off the shelves, being bought by those desperately trying to find something, anything, that will help them put on some serious mass.
  • Power or Fatigue for More Muscle Mass?
    One major concept that everyone seems to be confusing now-a-days is muscle fatigue versus muscle power, in search for techniques that will allow you to build and gain muscle weight.
  • Increase Your Muscle Mass With Digestive Enzymes
    If you could find out about a way to get much more out of the food you are already eating, allowing you to gain muscle weight at a faster rate, would you be interested? If you could find out how to not feel as bloated, gas-y, or down-right "heavy feeling" in the stomach after eating a meal, would you want to know?
  • Will Raising My Growth Hormone Help Me Build Muscle Mass?
    I'm reading a lot lately about training techniques that supposedly raise your natural growth hormone (GH) to help you gain weight / build muscle mass. Techniques such as super sets, drop sets, static holds, high volume, very high reps, pumping, and circuit training are claiming to be the way to "naturally" raise this hormone in the body.
  • You Don't Need Special Food To Gain Muscle Weight!
    More than likely you've been told or have read over and over again that in order to gain serious muscle weight you "must" eat a very high protein diet....you "must" use certain supplements....you "must" avoid sweets, like chocolate candy bars...etc., etc.
  • To Gain Muscle, All Pros Do Only 1 Set!
    Every pro bodybuilder does only 1 set per exercise to failure to gain muscle mass.....whether they say so or not. I'm going to answer one of the most asked, most contradicted questions about how to train to gain weight around: "How many sets does it take to gain muscular size and development?"'
  • Stay Away From Low Carb Diets To Gain Muscle Weight
    Many people looking to gain muscle weight can become very confused when they read and hear all of the conflicting information that's spread on TV, magazines, the internet, and diet books. One of the most misunderstood techniques is the low carb diets that have been very popular in the last several years.
  • Whole Foods vs Shakes For Muscle Gain
    After many years of spending hundreds, and even thousands, of dollars, after getting sick on them, and after seeing NO KIND OF RESULTS from them, many have finally realized that they are WORTHLESS. Yet, many are still confused if the supplements that are sold as "Meal Replacements", "Weight Gainers", "natural supplements", and "amino acids" have some good use in substituting for some WHOLE FOODS.
  • Pumping or Pounding to Build Muscle Mass?
    There are pretty much 2 schools of thought in how to gain muscle weight: you are either a "pumper", meaning you do a lot of sets for a lot of reps, using lower weights, and you go after the "pump". Or, you are a "pounder", meaning you do a low number of sets, a lower rep range, but you use as much weight as possible, so you are more concerned with getting stronger than getting a pump.
  • Protein is NOT the Best Food to Build Muscle
    Today, I'm going to write a little about the 2nd myth: that eating high amounts of fats or carbs (as opposed to eating high protein) is going to make you look like a little ball of lard (fat). Let me make one point really clear, if your goal is to gain muscle weight and build muscle mass, eating low amounts of fats or carbs IS NOT the way to go!
  • Why You Don't Need Protein To Gain Muscle!
    There are all kinds of diet recommendations all over the bodybuilding magazines and websites that advise to divide your eating into different "ratios" and "percentages" for building muscle mass and gaining weight. But the one thing that each and every one of these "weight gain" / "muscle building" diets say is it must be HIGH in protein. It is NOT necessary at all to eat a diet high in protein to gain muscle weight.
