Thread: Putting on weight? HOw to do?

  1. #1
    I've lost a lot of weight. Trying to gain weight. Also doing a lot of sit-ups, push ups to tone up.

    What's best to eat to gain "healthy weight" while doing such exercise. Started runnig again, but its 35 degrees here, and i sweat too much.

    So,how to gain weight, muscle toning, plus aerobic fitness in such temperatures.

    I wouldn't use those weight gain milkshakes, as they appaently just help retain water.

    Any ideas of what to be eating?

    Eventually will join gym to bulid muscle, but toming is fine for now.

    to build muscle, weights three or four times a week, plenty of protein, protein shakes are good as you can get around 17g's of protein and that’s just by mixing it with water, take some before and after weights (though some people will tell you only take it after)

    you break muscle fibers down in the gym so its important to take in plenty of protein out of the gym to help rebuild it - carbs too, especially if you're wanting to gain weight, try not to do too much cardio or you'll loose more than you'll put on

    as weendon said, chicken (and salmon) are a fantastic natural source of protein

    I get the protein ,but i also need to improve cardiovascular. Not sure if i should go for muscle build first, then cardio, or vice-versa.

    Anyone know if rice is any good for anything. Plenty of that here.

    I'm not racialist.

    Thanks for the link. Last question. Due to schedule, i can either run last thing at night, or 1st thing in morning. SOmeone told me a long time ago that running in the morning is bad for you, as the bones etc are still in a "relaxed" state from sleeping?
