🔥How to Gain Muscle🔥
-
The actual process to build muscle is not overly complicated. The most difficult part is being patient and accepting the fact that it takes time.
-
First, ditch the body part splits. I’ve discussed this in a ton of posts so I’m not going to go into much detail in this post but training body parts more often as a natural lifter will yield better results.

Second, commit yourself to staying in a caloric surplus for a minimum of 6 months. Like I said, gaining muscle takes time and if you alternate between bulking and cutting too often you will really be spinning your wheels. I was very guilty of this. At the first sign of some fat gain I wanted to cut. Building muscle requires a caloric surplus and a caloric surplus will yield some fat gain. Accept this, suck it up, and keep your surplus at around 300 calories to keep that fat gain to an absolute minimum.

Third, there are supplements that can help you but they will only be useful if you’re doing the “big three” correctly (training, diet, recovery). No supplement will help you gain muscle if you’re following an awful routine, not eating enough, and not sleeping enough.
