There are several individuals who are underweight and wanting
to gain some healthy weight. For people who possess a skinny body and faster
metabolism, here are 10 super tips to weight gain right way.
1. To
gain weight, you have to eat more but not just anything at anytime. This is how
you would do it: Count the calories consumed over one day. Then add about 500
calories to your base count and spread these calories over 4 to 5 smaller meals
during the day.
2. Opt
for weight training at a reputed gym under a qualified instructor. More muscle
means more mass and more mass will eventually lead to extra pounds; you want to
gain healthy weight not a an unsightly paunch.
3. Get
proper sleep for at least 8 hours daily. If you stay awake late, you will end
up burning more calories. Lie down and enjoy your snooze time.
4. Focus
on the intake of high protein diets. Remember, you need to build more muscle
mass through your food for the gaining the right kind of weight (not random
fat).
5. Stock
up your kitchen with foods that are good for putting on weight. These foods
would include products like potatoes, kidney beans, avocadoes and poultry.
Heavily fried fats like crisps are avoidable.
6. Instead
of binging on two big meals, spread them out into 5 to 6 smaller meals. These
meals must consist of protein and healthy fat that will eventually help you
gain the right kind of weight. (you are trying to avoid fat storage in your
body while gaining weight at the same time)
7. Eat
a variety of meals instead of sticking to the old ones that you love. To gain
weight, you require the right spread of nutrients like vitamins and minerals.
You can be sure of getting these only if you ensure you are eating foods that
cover all the kinds of nutrients from fiber to vitamins to protein.
8. Nutrient
intake combined with a fitness regime – this is the right way to eat in order
to gain healthy weight. Weight gain is directly related to a blend of higher
calorie counts as well as higher metabolism rates. So in order to qualify for
both requirements, you need to eat more as well as work-out more than before.
Work-outs for gaining weight would include more weight training and less
cardio.
9. After
an initial weight gain, your weight gain typically reaches a plateau phase. If
so, add a few more calories to your diet.
10. Record
your weight (and your diet chart) every week to see how much weight you are
able to gain. Monitoring weight gain becomes easier with recorded statistics.
