It’s possible for persons with high metabolic rates to develop muscles although it may entail harder work.
There are several routines that many people subscribe to for the “hardgainer”, but the main thing to remember is not to lift too much (as skinny bodies tend to over-train quicker than others).
Excessive training is more likely to detract from improvements rather than the opposite. If you feel that you are overtraining (look out for loss of sleep, loss of appetite, unexplained fatigue, unintended weight loss, and very slow or non-existent gains in poundage), then you need to cut back on your training schedule.
If you’re training for more than one hour, this is a likely sign of overtraining which is basically ineffective.
The best exercises to get you from skinny to muscular will be full body, bodyweight exercises to start with. These will give you strength and coordination and burn fat. The same goes for weight lifting exercises. The big compound exercises, where you are moving 2 or more joints to complete the movement. Examples would be:
* Clean & Jerks
* Squats
* Deadlifts
* Squat Presses
* Bench Press (flat, incline, decline)
* Dips
* Pull ups - Chin ups
* Military press
I would forego the isolation exercises in the beginning. Later on you can add a few in at the end of a workout, if you have time left over. These would be exercises that tend to require one joint to complete the movement. Such as:
* Bicep curls
* Tricep extensions
* leg curs
* Leg extensions
The exception to this rule would be calf raises, I would recommend you do these on your leg day, if you are doing a split routine.
So, how do you design a workout routine to get you from skinny to muscular? I would say, why reinvent the wheel? Cut loose with a couple of bucks and get a proven program that will teach you.
Afterward, follow your instructor’s lessons and go along with the program. Changes to the exercise program can be made to suit you, but initially it would be best to follow the original routine.
Vince Delmonte’s No Nonsense Muscle Building system specializes in taking skinny guys and teaching them how to train and eat to put on weight and become muscular. Vince was that skinny kid, so he’s able to walk the walk and talk the talk. He’s got a proven record and thousands of satisfied customers.
Reaching the goal of developing muscle from a body with a high metabolic rate would mean total commitment and patience in achieving the target. Your diet will be number one. Calorie consumption would have to be increased just enough accommodate your objectives; this can be done through a specially designed diet for your body type. The diet will have to take into consideration the proper proportion of protein, carbohydrates and fat.
If you can’t develop one yourself, try visiting some of my best of nutrition sites and try adapting a diet program that would work best for you.
This is not guess work and to be successful it needs to be done correctly and followed at least 90% of the time.
