Download or read book Scrawny to Swole written by Reese Dockrey and published by . This book was released on 2020-10-27 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: SCRAWNY GUYS! If you're tired of being skinny (or skinny-fat) and you want to know how to bulk up fast and pack on muscle safely and cheaply, keep reading. Even if you're unathletic, you have an ultra-fast metabolism, you're past your prime, or if you've tried lifting weights before but didn't get the gains you were promised. You can absolutely get big and strong. That's exactly what fitness enthusiast Reese Dockrey did after age 30. Despite being a life-long "hardgainer," he did his research and learned how to overcome his scrawny genetics and get shredded. Using the latest scientific developments, plus his own incredible true story, Dockrey will guide you through the steps of bulking (healthy overeating), strength training (turning those extra calories into muscle), and cutting (eliminating the fat and leaving behind a jacked, athletic body). The process is simple: you can do it with quick workouts, an inexpensive diet, plenty of "cheat meals," and minimal supplements. However, it's complicated enough that you do need to learn some things before you start bulking up. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN IN THIS BOOK: *Understand your body type, genetics, and muscle-building potential *Know whether you should cut before you bulk *Bulk with the optimal number of calories so you don't gain more weight than necessary *Know how fast you should gain weight and muscle (and how to track your gains) *Understand your macros: protein, fat, and carbs *Eat the right foods ("clean bulking") so you build muscle and don't create new health issues *Critical bulking hacks and high-calorie shake recipes for "hard gainers" with small appetites *Tips for bulking on a budget or out of a dorm room *How to cut bodyfat without losing muscle *Understand the process of building muscle and the different ways to do it *Choose the right workout program for you, and join a gym or build your own *Know which lifts to use, how to do them safely, and how to recover from each workout *Track your workout progress and troubleshoot when a program isn't working *Stay motivated when the going gets tough *And so much more! Chances are, you've already done a little research about bulking, and you probably noticed that the experts don't agree on much: how many calories to eat, which foods are healthier, which lifting program is best, and so on. Then there's the snake oil salesmen promising you can "gain 20 pounds of muscle and zero fat!" Obviously, the fitness world is a confusing place. This book is different; it will give you the facts (backed by science) and not a one-size-fits-all approach. You'll learn all the various options available to you based on your unique physical traits, personal goals, and finances. After reading it, you'll be armed with the knowledge you need to transform your body from scrawny to swole; from skinny-fat to jacked; from tall and lanky to filled-out and imposing. Consider Thomas Jefferson's advice: "If you want something you've never had, you must be willing to do something you've never done." For you, that means it's time to bulk up. Let my book be your guide; your Sherpa to the mountain top. The view at the top is worth it!

Book excerpt: A state-of-the-art weight-lifting and nutritional blueprint for "skinny" guys who want to pack on muscle Let's face it, naturally skinny guys are at a distinct genetic disadvantage when it comes to building muscle mass. But with the proper advice, these "hardgainers" definitely can realize their fitness goals. In Scrawny to Brawny, the authors draw on their years of practical experience as private strength and nutrition coaches to provide hardgainers with: • A progressive, state-of-the-art program that optimizes results with shorter, less frequent workouts that maximize compound exercises • A unique, action-based perspective on nutrition that shows how to prepare quick muscle-building meals and snacks-and how to take advantage of several critical times in the day when muscle growth can be stimulated by food intake • Vital information on how to identify and fix any weak links in their physiques that may be precursors to injury Designed not only for frustrated adult hardgainers but also--with its strong anti-steroid message--a terrific book for the large teen market, Scrawny to Brawny fills a significant gap in the weight-lifting arsenal.

Download or read book The Hardgainer Solution written by Scott Abel and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2015-01-25 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A blueprint for building a better body, gaining muscle, and overcoming your genetics Training for Strength and Training for Muscle Development You've been told, "train for strength, and development will come" and that "heavier is better." These are half-truths at best, and myths at worst. The Hardgainer Solution argues that you train first and foremost for development, and then a certain kind of strength will come. Yes, you will get bigger and stronger on this training program, but true physique development and muscle gain is not about 1RM strength. This program is designed with one thing in mind: gaining muscle and physique development. If you are a hardgainer, you need to gain serious muscle mass before you can focus solely on dieting down, getting leaner or getting shredded or getting ripped. Note that this weight training program does not require you to drink 2 liters of milk every day, or to drink protein shakes all day. You do not need to engage in 4-hour weight training sessions or take steroids. The diet and meal plans included are reasonable and sustainable, and come with guidelines for tweaking and customization. They are what Scott has used with his own clients. What's Included? The background and history behind this program, including its roots in Scott's training sessions with Bill Pearl in the 80s Explanations and introduction to the program's methodology Guidelines for not just "what" to do when you workout, but HOW to workout effectively A complete breakdown of over 80 individual workouts (plus links to get formatted, printable versions of the workouts) How to "keep it alive" and stay fresh while staying consistent on the same program Guidelines and formulas for determining your nutritional needs A list of meal plans for different calorie levels The importance of UNDERtraining The Hardgainer Muscle "Dilemma" Training Volume, Strength, and Recovery Needs The hardgainer dilemma is as follows: as a hardgainer, you need a certain amount of training volume to gain muscle. However, at the same time, as a hardgainer, you also struggle to properly recover both between workouts and within an individual workout. Most weight training and bodybuilding programs for hardgainers fail to address this. Those that do tend to edge towards extremely low volume: a low number of reps, a low number of sets, only 2-3 training sessions per week, and so on. That's just not the way bodybuilders train when their focus is development. To get the most out of your body, you need to train in a way that lets you get the proper volume in a way that allows your muscles to recover and grow. The Hardgainer Solution was designed with precisely this goal in mind. Order the Hardgainer Solution today to get the full program, meal plans, and more

Download or read book The Lean Muscle Diet written by Lou Schuler and published by Rodale. This book was released on 2014-12-23 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research shows that although people can lose 5 to 10 percent of their body weight on any given diet, dieting itself is a consistent predictor of future weight gain. Why? At some point, everyone stops dieting. The Lean Muscle Diet solves the sustainability problem while offering immediate results. It’s simple: act as if you already have the body you want. If a reader is, say, a 220-pound man who wants to become a muscular 180-pounder, he then uses The Lean Muscle Diet's formula to eat and train to sustain a 180-pound body. The transformation begins immediately, and the results last for life. Lou Schuler, who has sold more than one million copies of his fitness books worldwide, and Alan Aragon, nutrition advisor to Men's Health, have created an eating and "metabolically expensive" exercise plan designed to melt fat while building muscle. The best part? The plan allows readers to eat their favorite foods, no matter how decadent. With full support from Men's Health, The Lean Muscle Diet delivers a simple--and simply sustainable--body transformation plan anyone can use.
