The Claim: Weight gainers are typically marketed towards people who are desperate to put on muscle.

The Facts: These products typically consist either a simple carbohydrate, or a complex (yet empty-calorie) carbohydrate such as maltodextrin, with protein, fat, and micronutrients rounding out the minority of the contents. People are deceived into thinking their gains in scale weight are quality pounds, but often it’s just a matter of packing on a bunch of fat along with muscle. The solution is understanding how much muscle can realistically be gained: about two to three pounds per month for beginners, one to two pounds a month in intermediate trainees, and about half a pound to a pound a month in advanced trainee

... not enough protein ?

People just wanna see how much in weight they gain per month , doesnt matter glycogen/fat/water.
its hard to knock this fact in thier mind that u oni gain 2-3 lbs per month into people.

mine around 60kg with 170cm in weight...

eat a lot(especially meat) but can't help..

started to work out last week and hope i can gain more weight by getting muscles

Which is why I make them aware

Mr.Darklight, I have a question. Is it possible for me to gain muscle by home workout with only a set of dumb-bell?

Lol yes, but...... you will soon stagnate because a pair of dumbbells have a fixed weight and you need to progress in poundages to grow muscle. Can you do chin ups at home?

Mr Dakrlight. Im on weight gaining program. I want to ask, does the timing to workout must be consistent? Eg, can my workout schedule be like this?

Monday - Morning
Wednesday - Evening
Fiday - Morning

or i need to be constant do workout in morning/evening all the time?

thank you.

Hi all, I was 21 years old, my weight is 46kg, I am a good eater too, but I am still the same weight, was very thin , have any tips to increase my weight, thank you

You should be happy that you are not over weight.Be happy and enjoy your life with less weight.
