How do men gain weight?

For women, they dream of having a slim figure and try their best to lose weight. But men are different, they all want to have a strong body. Many thin men want to have a strong body. In order to make themselves stronger, many men will use some methods to gain weight. Below I will tell you some methods to help male friends gain weight.

First, let’s talk about protein and carbohydrate intake. For a skinny person who is in the beginner stage, the most important thing they need to consume every day is carbohydrates, while protein is secondary. Only with enough carbohydrates can you grow fast. Because the initial stage of fitness is in the stage of adjusting absorption, the amount that the body can absorb is far less than the amount taken in, so there is no need to consume according to the most standard weight gain ratio.

It is enough to consume 3g of carbohydrates per kg of body weight per day, and 0.8-1.2g of protein per kg of body weight. That is to say, if you weigh 60kg now, you should consume 160g of carbohydrates and 48g-72g of protein every day. This is for people who are new to fitness or have only been doing it for a short time.

For those who have been doing fitness for half a year or even more than a year, and who do not do it perfunctorily but complete each training session seriously. You can try the amount that standard fitness people consume. Consume 5g or even 6g of carbohydrates per KG of body weight. Of course, 5g is generally enough. As for protein, 2g per KG of body weight is sufficient.

Finally, let’s talk about fat intake. For thin people who want to gain muscle, body shapers do not recommend that you consume too much fat every day, at least you don’t need to deliberately increase the fat content in snacks. Because sufficient daily carbohydrate intake can provide good conditions for muscle growth, while excess carbohydrate intake will increase the storage of muscle glycogen. And if you consume too much for a long time, part of the carbon water will be converted into fat accumulation, thereby increasing your body fat.
