How can I get bigger? (More body mass whether its fat or muscle)?

So I'm an asian guy in High School and so I know it has to do with genes and stuff but I'm so skinny its ridiculous. I want to get buffer but I have to build up more body mass first. However, no matter how hard I try, it doesn't seem to work. I 4 meals a day and I eat a "balanced" diet of both healthy and junk food until my stomach feels like its gonna explode. I think I might resort to something like muscle milk, but does anyone have good tips on how I can put more meat on my bones? Of course I would like something fast but there are some things that can't be rushed and I understand that as well. Thanks!Messed up --- *I eat 4 meals a day....

How to Lose Weight With Bikram Yoga

Recommended Answer:

If 4 meals are not enough try 5 if that doesnt work than try 6. Do weight training too mate. Bodybuilding is great. So try to go to the gym if you can 3 times a week. No machine exercises just compound movements like squats, deadlifts, bench press, barbell rows etc. Also I would recommend something like muscle milk, for example mutant mass. In it you get over a 1000 calories per serving. So have your 4 normal meals and squeeze in 2 shakes of mutant mass or muscle milk in between those meals to provide you with the extra protein and carbs. Have 1 shake whenever you want between meals and have the 2nd one after weight training. Each shake should have roughly 2 or 2.5 scoops of powder. Trust me there's no way you won't put on some muscle. Hope that helps. :P

• Big Mac diet
• Egg whites, eggs, steaks, ham pure meat if you want muscle. Donuts , cheese burgers and choclate shakes for fat
• Gaining muscle takes the same amount of focus and preparation as losing weight. Some important facts about gaining muscle: •You can't necessarily gain muscle without gaining some fat as well. •There are no magic foods, powders or pills that will allow you to gain muscle and lose fat at the same time. Some people can do this naturally (again, the genes), but most will gain some fat along with the muscle. •Your body is very different from a bodybuilder--trying to gain mass to look like them is not the best idea. They have different muscle fibers than you and some may even be getting a little help from illegal substances. •If you're a teenager, you'll have a hard time changing your body dramatically. It's changing constantly and it will change even more as the years pass. •Gaining weight requires eating more and lifting more Gaining muscle requires that you eat more calories than you burn. For those with high metabolisms, that may seem impossible, but if you try a few of these tricks, you'll find that adding calories to your day is easier than you think:•Choose calorie-rich foods like granola, bagels, biscuits, avocados, olives, corn, meat, nuts, peanut butter, milk, yogurt and cheese. •Add extra calories to your meals by using milk instead of water for soups, sauces and hot cereals. •Sprinkle powdered milk into casseroles. •Add calorie-rich foods (like avocado, cheese and dressing) to sandwiches and salads •Mix beans, meat or cheese into pasta or side dishes •Snack on yogurt, shakes, crackers and dip •Keep a food diary for a week or so to get an idea of what you're eating and where you can add more calories The trick is to add calories without adding too much saturated fat. You can also consider downing smoothies or meal replacement shakes in between meals.Lift, Lift, LiftOnce you get your calories under control, you need to start liftingweights. This will help you gain more muscle and help minimize theamount of fat you gain (although you should expect to gain some fatas well). Folks trying to gain muscle should: •Lift heavy. This means lifting enough weight that you can only complete about 6-8 repetitions of each exercise. The last few reps should be difficult--the last one should be really hard, but not impossible. •Have longer recovery periods between sets •Have more recovery days between workouts •Use spotters to avoid injury •Continue with cardio, but keep it at maintenance level--around 2-3 days of cardio a week to keep your heart in shape •Start with a full body program 2-3 nonconsecutive days a week, if you're a beginner. Allow your body a few weeks to get used to lifting weights before you tackle more intense routines.
