Can The Skinny Guy Build Mass, Muscle & Strength Fast?
If the fat slob who gets into bodybuilding can pack on serious muscle by doing hardly any work and eating junk why is it that a motivated skinny guy can’t build mass, muscle and strength with a good diet and a solid exercise plan?
The answer lies in the differences in body type and their respective metabolisms.
There are three main body types:
The Endomorph are the big guys, the round guys who put on weight easily but find it very difficult to lose it. The metabolism in an Endomorph is very slow so a lot of excess energy from food gets stored as fat and if they are bodybuilding the slow metabolism allows the muscle to gain the nutrients it needs before it is burnt or stored allowing them to build muscle quite easily.
The Mesomorphs are the mid ranged body types, typically considered the best all round athletes they have a moderate metabolism allowing them to put on muscle and lose weight the lucky devils!
The Ectomorph is you, the skinny guy who builds mass & muscle very poorly because your metabolism burns through the energy food gives you so fast that there is nothing left to store as fat cell and also there is nothing left to feed the muscle!
So that being said, is it possible for an ectomorph to pack on pounds of lean muscle? Yes! but you need to approach bodybuilding is a different way to the other body types.
The first thing you need to do is adjust your diet drastically, you need to eat more, much much more. You need a LOT more calories that you usually would so there is enough nutrients to feed and grow muscles after workouts. This can be hard for some skinny guys as they get too full so concentrate on foods that are dense in calories such as avocados, tuna and salmon in olive oil, whole eggs, potatoes, pasta and rice.
You also need to concentrate on intensity of a workout not the length of time. Lots of reps will not get the blood flowing into the right places you need to lift heavier weights fewer times and really challenge the strength of those muscles not their endurance for the skinny guy to build mass & muscle FAST.
