Need a Muscle Growth Spurt?

Try this simple program for boosting your muscle-growth.

For 3 weeks, do nothing but Squats on Day 1 and Day 3, Bench Presses on Day 3 and 5, and Lat Pull-downs on Day 1 and Day 5.

First week, do 6-8 reps per set, for 3 sets.
Second week, do 8-12 reps per set, for 4 sets.
Third week, do 12-15 reps per set, for 5 sets.
Fourth week, do your “normal” routine (whatever that is).

For the nutrition side, take heavy doses of weight-gain powder 3 days in a row. On Day 4, take no supplements. In other words, heavy supplements ON three consecutive days, OFF one day.

Supplements to consider:

  1. Weight Gain powder
  2. Creatine
  3. BCAAs
  4. Liver tablets

Along with these supplements, eat plenty of eggs and milk.

This is a time-honored weight-gain program that goes back to the ’50s. Muscle builders have been using it for decades with great success.

    You can substitute parallel bar dips for the bench presses. You may find that you build more strength and muscle with the dips that you will with the benches.
