Does anyone know how to gain 20-25 lbs in about 8 months or less?

Question

I need to put on a lot of weight for football

Answer 1

Clinically speaking; lifting weights using compound barbell exercises (Squats, Dead lifts, Bench Press, Dips, Pull-ups, Military Press and so on) in the 8-12 repetition range (1-3 sets for each major muscle group approx 2 times a week) will greatly raise your testosterone. You should also keep your nutrition solid with 4 to 5 small healthy meals including fresh fruits and vegetables, lean meats and whole grains. Following a regular sleeping pattern and avoiding excess alcohol will also help. Once you devote about 12 weeks to this basic program you will want to go on a more varied program. Changing your reps every week or so. It will take time and persistence to achieve your goal, but you can do it. Unless your taking anabolic steroids (not recommended) then the average person will max out at adding 2 pounds of lean muscle mass weekly until your body adapts to the program. This is why you should always change your program every few weeks to keep growing after you complete a base 12 week system like the one listed above.

I also recommend looking up supplements for testosterone on consumberlab.com. You cannot trust ANY adds, the only way to know is if they have passed third party clinical studies (no not the bogus ones listed on the labels)

Answer 3

Drink weight gainer powder sold at GNC. Lift weights if you play football. Be sure to take a good multi-vitamin/ mineral. In the first year, you may only gain 10-15 pounds - if you stick to it for a whole year - but it would be the right kind of weight gain. All throughout your high school years, you could gain at least 10 pounds a year if you lifted weights. You'll be a better player; your team will love it; and the girls will love it, too. You'll be glad you did.
