Weight Gain Products - The Winners and Losers

These are extremely bad for your body. Not only do they lead you to gain FAT rather than muscle - they pump you full of things you don't need.

I was on a weight gain shake for about a month. Did I gain any weight? Yes. I gained about 11 pounds. But rather than gaining lean muscle, I gained a bunch of fat around my belly (as you can see above it's all gone - thank god).

Before going on weight gain shakes my body fat percentage was 8% (extremely good). After that month I had shot up to about 12% (this is still pretty good, but a lot worse than 8%)

This one is a LOSER.

Protein is the building block of muscles while carbs give you the energy to work out as well as the calories to gain the muscle.

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.
