![]() | I have an ectomorph body type, which means it's hard for me to gain weight, my metabolism is really fast and it makes it really hard. I was wondering if anyone here could help me out to gain weight/muscle with routines, diets etc.... I have tried a lot, but can't seem to gain even a pound.. Ryan,

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | Try the formula Met-Rx, it gives you weight but it's muscle weight. You have to workout, you know, lift weights but you should be able to put on about 10 to 20lbs of muscle.

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | No, no creatine. Try it with a bannana, apple juice and crushed ice. You can find it at GNC. What are your workout goals? Toning or building strength? It shouldn't be that hard to find a good workout routine. How old are you? Do you workout at home or at a gym?

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | muscle building most effective weightlifting routines, exercises and diets Muscle building is not easy. If it was, everyone you know would be 250lbs of pure muscle. Muscle building takes time and effort, and if you aren't willing to dedicate your time and put in extreme amounts of effort, then you are wasting your time. However, if you fully understand the amount of dedication that is needed, then read on and lets get down to business. Muscle building requires 3 steps. Step 1 and the most important step is the weightlifting, which must be done correctly. This includes your workout routines and programs, as well as the actual exercises that you do. Your workout routine must allow your entire body to get the best workout it can (so that you are not overtraining), and you must do the most effective muscle building exercises. There are tons of different exercises and machines for each muscle group, but there are just 4 that have the greatest effect. These 4 exercises are your "compound" movements. Let me explain. The most effective muscle building exercises are compound movements. Compound movements are exercises that require your body to use more than one muscle. For example, bicep curls will only require your body to use your biceps. This is known as an isolation exercise. An exercise like the bench press, which mainly requires the use of your chest, but secondarily requires your triceps and shoulders is a compound movement. Including the bench press, there are 4 weightlifting exercises that MUST be included in your workout routines. The 4 biggest, most effective, muscle building exercises are Squats, Deadlifts, the Bench Press and the Military Press. All 4 are compound movements and all 4 are are extremely important to your workout. The main exercise of your chest workout should be the bench press, the main exercise of your leg workout should be squats, the main exercise of your back workout should be deadlifts and the main exercise of your shoulder workout should be the military press.
