People that want to build mass muscle are going to have different requirements than people who want to build lean muscle. Mass gains typically are going to come with a little extra body fat because you will need to both eat differently and also take different supplements if you want to build mass vs. cutting up. Mass requires a different set of habits especially for hard gainers. Those of you that have a hard time putting on and maintaining mass will want to take special care to read about proper diet and exercise routines.
You can’t build mass without eating big! Building mass requires that you consume far more calories than usual and typically those calories will want to be heavily weighted towards protein and carbohydrates. Often guys will take weight gainers while they work out because these products have lots of carbs and lots of protein. You can either choose to take a weight gainer supplement or just eat lots of high quality food, which doesn’t mean chips or other snack foods. High quality foods include protein poweder, eggs, meat, milk and a variety of rice and pasta. Each meal should contain at least 20g of protein (you can check protein on the package of whatever you buy).
Mass workouts tend to be a bit different from cutting workouts. The truth is that almost any workout plan will help you build muscle and there is not one single way that is perfect, but to really gain muscle mass you want to do movements that are as slow as possible. This means that you should count to a slow 4 on the upstroke (positive) and count to a slow 5 on each down stroke (negative). This extra resistance will help your muscles build intense mass that you can keep. Also, mass building movements like bench press, squats and seated rows should be part of your arsenal.

Mass comes with the right supplements. Three key factors are responsible for extreme muscle growth. First, you want to take a good preworkout creatine supplement. Creatine is perfect for putting on mass, because it increases muscle volume and cellular energy. The most advanced creatine preworkout is the LG Sciences Anadraulic State GT. This product has all the growth co-factors in it and also a great dose of creatine. Along with these are energy boosting ingredients designed to give you maximum focus in the gym to power through those tough workouts.
Mass also comes from countering excess estrogens from the environment and increasing our androgen load. If you are over 21 you can use Methyl 1-D at 3-6 capsules per day. This prohormone to testosterone is going to increase your androgen levels and counter all of the pesticides and toxic chemicals that rob you of testosterone. If you are under 21, you can use Natadrol which is a natural herbal androgen boosting agent that isn’t a hormone. Either of these will help you put on huge mass. Methyl 1-D comes part of our Trifecta Kit and Natadrol comes with our Natabolic Kit. Both include a diet and exercise program to help you gain MASS. These kits also include natural growth hormone releasing agents that will help you pack on mass. GH is the third anabolic factor that you need to supplement if you want to get big. GH helps with recovery and sleep, which is crucial to gaining mass.
