Anand Focused On Nutrition And Gained 20 Pounds Of Muscle!
Anand always had a hard time keeping up with his incredibly fast metabolism. But after committing to a different nutrition plan, Anand was able to gain 20 pounds of strong, lean muscle! Find out how he did it below!
All throughout middle school and high school I was always the skinniest kid. Everyone would always comment on my weight and how I needed to eat more because I was too skinny. However, the problem isn't that I wasn't eating enough it is that my metabolism is so fast it's hard to gain weight. I also ran track, so with all that cardio it was even harder to gain weight even though I was working out.
How I Did It
It wasn't until summer of 2009 before I entered college that I began to lift seriously and really tried to gain some weight and strength. Even though I gained 20 pounds, I still am skinny and definitely want to continue working out and hopefully put on some more weight especially in my lower body.

Diet
Honestly, because of my metabolism and the fact that even at 135 pounds I am still really skinny, my diet consists of eating as much meat as I can to get protein. I try to consume more than 2000 calories a day in order to gain weight. Because I recently began to supplement with creatine tablets I now consume roughly 64 ounces of water per day.
I do not keep the same workout plan for more than two months at a time because I find that if my body gets used to the workout I stop seeing gains in strength and size.
I would suggest to anyone just starting out to research first find out what's safe and just go for it. Trial and error is the best way I learn what works best for me and what doesn't! Also, nutrients and multivitamins are very important as well as a lot of water and sleep!
