Johnny Boy asked:

I have a pretty decent workout. I do chest/triceps on mon, back/biceps on wed, shoulders/legs on fri. Is that a good workout plan? I am trying to bulk up and add some weight on. Would it be bad instead of doing it 3 days a week to move it to 6 days a week? Is that too much? I just need some help on putting some weight on.

Here’s an easy weight-gain protein drink —

1. Get a whey-based protein powder.
2. Add 2 cups whole milk.
3. Add one banana.
4. Mix well with a hand-held blender OR a standalone blender.
5. Enjoy.

Mixing up protein and weight-gain powders ought to be the least of your worries. Focus on eating 6-8 small meals, get in some High Intensity Training, and get enough sleep. If you gain weight, you’re good to go.

If you don’t gain weight, re-assess your situation. Maybe you’re not getting enough sleep or food. For more weight-gaining tips, try The Hard Gainer’s Manifesto and Muscle-Build.com.

I just discovered a really great resource, John Berardi’s Scrawny To Brawny – Building Muscle Without Steroids 5-day ecourse.

It covers body types, training, nutrition, supplements, corrective exercises, as well as determination and social support. In 5 days, you’ll likely learn more than you’ve learned over the past few years reading the muscle mags.

This course tells it like it is, with no BS, no filler, no fluff. Of course, Dr. Berardi wants to sell you his books and training, so he hopes to entice you to his wares by delivering awesome content in this course, and he delivers!
