How To Gain Weight Super Fast For Hopeless Hardgainers

It’s easy for me to say that you have to eat more than you burn, but if you have an elevated metabolism this is not so easy. Calories eaten will not necessarily be digested. Calories digested will not necessarily get into your cells and be transformed into weight and muscle.

Problems gaining weight = faster metabolism = consumed calories evaporate mostly as heat as your body burns them in order to maintain a homeostatic temperature.

Our metabolisms are higher in the summer. When the surrounding temperature is high, our bodies have to dissipate some of the energy from food (calories) in the form of surface body heat; otherwise, we would overheat.

Therefore, you have to give your body a reason to lower its metabolism to normal levels.

Our metabolisms run on two processes: Anabolism (weight gain) and catabolism (weight loss). Weight gain requires that you suppress the catabolic process and facilitate the anabolic process. Your body will naturally do this when there are HUGE ENERGY DEFICITS.

If you create an energy deficit, your body HAS to recover. In order to do that, it must:

  • Force anabolic processes (= weight gain); body increases testosterone levels, increases protein synthesis (muscle gain) and increases digestion of proteins, lowers protein catabolism
  • Suppress catabolic processes (= weight gain); lowering catabolic hormones, increasing anabolic hormones, improving digestion and preserving calories
  • Force calories into weight (= weight gain); lowering heat dissipation and forcing calories into protein synthesis

As you may have guessed, you create energy deficits through exercising. And in order to create a HUGE energy deficit and get a HUGE response from your body (weight gain), you have to do SHORT and VERY INTENSE exercises.

The biggest energy deficit creators are compound movements – squats, deadlifts and bench presses. Lifting weights forces the body to adapt to the energy deficit the load creates, and it does this by switching the metabolism into weight gain mode, thus building muscles.

What to eat to gain weight fast: A healthy weight gain diet

Exercise creates huge energy deficits and switches your body into weight gain mode. To then gain that weight, you must eat strategically and supply your body with calories when it is in this state.

Here is the system to reverse your metabolism in 3 months. This system will also give you maximum muscle gains because it works both the liquid and the meat of a muscle and gives proper training to each of them. You can read about it more here, in a post on this site.

So, you need a system that continually does three things:

  1. Creates energy deficits in your body
  2. Gives you the diet to supply the body with construction material for recovering (weight gain)
  3. Works your muscles effectively (all 3 types of fibers and all 3 elements of muscle liquid, each of which needs a different routine and has a different recovery time).

This system has to also be plateau-proof because, when creating energy deficits, your body will be adapting and will need periods of strategic deconditioning. You also need a guide on weight gain supplements, pills and cardio — not an easy subject.

If you have a really fast metabolism, you will need weight gainers – mixtures of protein and carbohydrates – in addition to your diet, taken at least 2 times per day. This may be especially critical during the first 2 months, when you are going to be gaining weight gain momentum.

Workouts, diets, supplements and a cardio guide for skinny guys with fast metabolisms can be found in this post, on this site.

Good luck, my friend. This is how to gain weight fast in the real world.
