The majority of my clients are here to shed off a few excess pounds belly fat. However there is a niche group of you guys who are just too skinny and need to add muscle to get a ripped body! So, to follow up on the Skinny Guy Bible… In this article I am going to teach all of yall with super fast metabolisms how to put on Lean Muscle all over your body FAST!
Eat when you’re full
Breakfast is the most commonly skipped meal, and naturally it’s the most important. I understand life gets busy and hetic sometimes… Your running late and just don’t have the time to cook yourself a healthy breakfast.
Now of course the best option is to manage your time appropriately and make sure you are eating a big balanced breakfast every morning. However when that can’t happen, here are some alternatives….
Stock up on some high protein bars and meal replacement shakes. Remember this is not ideal, but when you are in a rush its better than skipping breakfast all together.
Prepare your meals in advance… Don’t be afraid to eat a chicken breast for breakfast… Remember Chick breast should be your staple protein source.
Get a Healthy Whole grain High carb cereal… And DON’T tell me you don’t have time to poor a bowl of cereal.
When you are sleeping… you are obviously not consuming any calories, so it is crucial to get something in your body within 30 minutes of waking up! Make this a priority and you will be much better off. Here is a free video about the Zero Willpower Eating system that will get you ripped faster than you ever thought possible!
One Big Meal is NOT Enough
Calorie counting is never something I believed in… Its annoying, inaccurate, and in my opinion a waste of time. Let me explain. Lets say you were on a really high calorie diet to put on weight… Roughly 5000 calories a day. Now theoretically you could pack on the cheese, starches, and fats and eat 5000 calories in one meal. Most likely you will not starve for the rest of the day after this one meal… but this is not conducive to building muscle.
Here’s what’s wrong with this…
Your body cannot efficiently process the nutrients in a meal like this… more than half of the nutrients and calories in this one meal will simply be digested not absorbed doing little to no good for you if you goal is to build muscle.
This type of binge eating will actually train your body to hold onto fats and carbs longer because it is not being fed easily enough.
Usually super high calories meals are REALLY high in fat… you should be trying to eat high protein meals. NOT high FAT.
This style of eating is HIGHLY addictive and can lead into adverse effects like emotional eating, and other eating disorders.
The goal for everyday should be to eat a high protein low fat meal every 2.5 to 3 hours. This way your body can absorb the majority of protein and nutrients you are feeding it and promote positive muscle growth. Also you train your body to filter through and metabolize fats more efficiently so you are only retaining what you need to build Lean Muscle!

Carbs are your Nighttime FRIEND!
Nothing will help you put on weight faster than Carbs… Pastas, Bread, Potatoes… Now Protein is what will actually make your muscles grow so still make sure you include them into your diet. Before and after every workout should be your highest protein meals of the day understanding that at those times your body is primed and ready to absorb proteins.
The most important time to load up on carbs is right before bed. Carbs are one of the slower metabolized nutrients and you need to think of 8 hours of sleeping as an 8 hour fast. Its not a bad thing and please don’t start setting your alarm in the middle of the night to eat a meal… But if 30 minutes before bed you simply eat a big bowl of rice or pasta your body will have the calories and energy to make it through the night without resorting to burning your proteins and muscle you really want to do your best to hold onto.
So here is a basic guideline for eating that will really help you gain weight and put on muscle FAST!
30 minutes after waking up
High protein and carb meal… preferably egg whites and oatmeal, but if you are in a time crunch time to at least shake up a meal replacement shake or bar alternative
Second through fifth Meals (2.5 hours apart)
Meals that you premade are best. I cook my meals for the week every Sunday. A good option would be broccoli, brown rice and a chicken breast… For weight gaining don’t be afraid to pack on some extra carbs.
Remember to always eat a meal about an hour before working out, and immediately after!
30 minutes before Bed
Even if you don’t throw in any protein at all at least eat a big bowl of rice of pasta… NOTHING packs on the pounds faster than carbs!
So eating is definitely crucial to a successful muscle building routine. Check out this free video that will give tell you exactly what you need to do to ripped fast for this upcoming swim suit season!
TRAIN HARD!!!
I saved the most important for last… You have to workout! If you have access to weight or a gym PERFECT! If not, it’s no big deal! There are Crazy effective body weight workouts that will get you ripped just as fast! Check out Insane Home Fat Loss.
Push yourself constantly! Always shooting for that extra rep. This is what makes your body improve. My school of though is if you feel like you can’t do one more rep… you usually can!
Nothing is more important than training hard. If you don’t put in the work you wont see the results. It’s really that simple!
