Want to pack on some extra muscle weight to your frame?  If you’re having trouble packing on the muscle or instead have only successfully packed on the fat, I’m going to give you a few tips which will help you in the right direction:

1.    Go Up In Reps Or Weight Each Session

To slap on that extra muscle weight, you really need to be keeping track of how many reps you can do for each exercise and what weight you are using.  You need to go in the gym with the mentality of beating your previous workout, EVERY SINGLE TIME!  When you hit the gym, it’s all business, shift into another mindset, one in which you’re competing with yourself.  As long as you’re going up in reps or weight, you will see more muscle piling on.

2.    Up The Intensity

Another way to add more muscle weight to your frame is to train more intensively.  What I mean by that is to develop a good mind to muscle connection.  When you are lifting the weight, try and focus in on that as much as possible and shut everything else out.  Make sure you’re using that weight in such a way that you are giving your muscles the toughest workout you possibly can.  It’s hard to quantify this, but it’s like a 6th sense that REALLY makes a difference.  Work on developing your mind to muscle connection.

3.    Don’t Lift For Ego

This is a huge mistake people make.  It’s not a good idea to lift weights which are too heavy for you to execute with good form, you’re not helping yourself at all by doing that.  You will build a lot more muscle using a weight you can do 8 controlled repetitions with than one you can do 4-5 strained, half cheating reps with.

If you really want to add extra muscle weight to your frame though, you’re going to need a killer game plan.  In fact, did you know that no matter how much of a hardgainer you are, it’s possible to add an extra 10 pounds of solid muscle in a matter of two weeks?  Only a few people know how to achieve this and you’re about to find out how yourself: Tell me the secret
