I want to gain muscle ?

[Anonymous]

Is there any specific workouts and how long will it take for me to gain muscle. For example, if I do arm workouts eventually I’ll get biceps right but what if I don’t because my protein intake is too low? Any tips on how much protein I should Intake in order to gain muscle and types of food?

There are formulas for your daily protein intake. But it is important to spit them in small portions (5 is perfect) because the body can only absorb a limited amount. The rest leaves via the kidneys. Gaining muscle mass also means training a muscle group to failure. That is different than training for strength or endurance.

U need to know your basal metabolism, then the next is the macro nutrients (a bit of carb and a lot of protein to gain muscle) and then a good workout and that's basically.

If u aren't in form, in 1 or 2 month u are already seeing some results

If you are a rail with high metabolism: no cardio, Beans, Meats, vegetable/fruit Carbs, 8 hour of sleep. Heavy weight, low reps every other day.

I have a slow metabolism not fast but I’ve already lost lots of weight before I just want to gain muscle now

[Guy13]

No frozen, snack, or beer aisles and do the other stuff then you will show gains. Boney leans takes longer than "fat to skinny" people... usually.

Drink, protein, milkshakes, work out with heavy weights be consistent in the gym. You will gain muscle eat a lot of food.

Heavy weights? I thought higher reps and sets with lower weights was better or maybe I’ve been told wrong

[Iron_Man]

Higher reps light weight are for cutting up. Do you want muscle mass lift heavy weights, low reps but do a lot of sets. I am proof because that’s what I did back in my prime to add all that muscle back in my 20s.

[FunkyMonkee]

Are you not old enough to reach the drums?

[Asker]

I’m sure height is a more suitable reference than age in order to reach the drums so nice joke but ur clearly not 55

[FunkyMonkee]

You have to have the intelligence to know what you're doing.

If you want it as bad as you say you do, you don't have money not to
