There are many people who are constantly struggling to find a weight gain workout that works for them. I, like many other people I know, have found that it’s the simple things that help you the most. There is no need for “high tech” supplements. Here’s a quick and easy look at what worked for me and still works.

The first thing I want to convey has to do with the fact that you should have fun when you’re trying to gain weight. It is one of the most important things to remember. You want to be in the right mindset and you want to feel optimistic. We’ll get to weight gain training in a second, but let’s start with simple steps you can take to boost your energy level and motivation in the right direction.

If you are taking a lot of high-tech supplements, you can continue to do so if you wish. Heck, maybe some of them are working for you with your weight gain training. What I have found, however, is that the most basic supplements have helped me the most. First, I did my research on vitamins, because I’ve heard great things about taking a good multivitamin. For me, the multivitamin is something I will never go without again. In short, it has helped with my stamina, energy, drive, attention span, and general sense of health, all of which are crucial to maintaining a good weight-gain exercise routine. This, mixed with an inexpensive protein powder (pure whey works best for me) has my mindset right for the weight gain workout I participate in.

In the following, we will briefly go into the weight gain training itself. Now, everyone is different, and different things work for a wide variety of people. The one thing that tends to work for all hard winners is the basics. By base I’m talking about squats and deadlifts. I cannot stress this enough. Squats and dead lights simply give you a building block for all future development. They work almost your entire body and get you in shape to put the pounds on your body while helping you put more pounds on your pull up bar. The best thing about these two exercises is that you only have to do them twice a week with whatever weight gain workout you choose.

Last but not least, we are going to talk about form and posture. Developing excellent form and posture is an absolute must if you want to be successful in your weight gain training. Good shape helps you gain weight fast. We can get pretty technical here, but I’ll leave it at that, because I assume you know what we’re talking about. Long story short, take a little time to make sure you’re in good shape when using any type of free weights. You’ll thank yourself later.

Getting the perfect weight gain workout isn’t as hard as it sounds because once you build a good foundation, you can venture on to bigger and better things.
