Workout Durations
Gaining Muscle Weight
I need to get something out of the way first of all. Many men think that they need to spend hours in the gym in order to gain lean muscle. This is totally bogus. In fact, there are multiple studies which prove that spending more than 47 minutes working out will drastically decrease your potential for gains.
This is because your body begins releasing a stress hormone (cortisol) at about the 47 minute mark in response to intense exercise. At this point, your muscle fibers begin losing their ability to be torn because your body begins to use a mixture of cortisol and adrenaline to lift the weights.
Keep your workouts very intense and under 47 minutes for best results.

Recovery Time
Gaining Muscle Weight
Okay, a lot of people know that muscles need approximately 48 hours to fully recover from a workout. What they do not know is that resting for MORE than 48 hours also hinders your results. At this point your muscles begin to return to their original form because there is no-reinforcement for them to stay larger (and therefore use up more energy).
I am sure you have experienced this effect. You workout one day and you look and feel great for about a day and a half. But after not working out for 3-4 days your body size returns to its previous state.
Be sure to do your best to only give your muscles a 48 hours rest. Give them tons of re-enforcement to continue growing.

Your Diet
Gaining Muscle Weight
The bulk of your diet needs to be of protein and carbohydrates if you are serious about gaining muscle weight. Protein is the essential building block of lean muscle mass and carbs will provide you with the energy needed for intense workouts as well as your recovery periods.
How I Gained 25lbs of Muscle in 2 Months

If you want to cut through all the junk and really start gaining lots of lean muscle fast, then here is the program I used: No Nonsense Muscle Building
Vince Delmonte (the creator) is a male fitness model who's also just another hard gainer. If it wasn't for this guy's program, I would still be a skinny "boy" instead of strong and toned MAN.
That's the real secret. If you want to see how Vince transformed from a 149lb weakling to a 210lb fitness model, then go to the No Nonsense Muscle Building Website and scroll to the second paragraph.
