Remember one thing.
Any thing that is marketed always has some vested interest by someone who is marketing it.
1. Do you know that all the protein/mass-gainer companies ONLY market, and do not produce the stuff? This is exactly like any other FMCG product out in the market. Horlicks/Bournvita/Boost/Complan - seriously do you believe the advertisements which basically proclaim that all adults today are idiots (since these "health drinks" were not so prevalent during their childhood)
2. Do you know that there has been not a single study which concludes categorically that whey protein (or any other powder stuff) actually leads to better result compared to any other protein (like eating eggs/meat/legumes/rice)
3. Anyone who feels that only after drinking whey etc they have put on muscles and are able to lift higher weights are only kidding themselves. Placebo perhaps. Or they were helping themselves with "supplements" LOL. Supplements like testosterone, dianabol, nilevar, winstrol, trenbolone, decadurabolin/nandralone, etc increase the rate of protein synthesis in the body, and hence your body can actually utilize 100-500 g of daily protein intake.
3. Can you tell me your height? Weight by itself means nothing to describe the state of being overweight or thin like a stick.
4. How much muscle would you put on? Lets say 20kg. (This is nearly the genetic limit for a natural guy). This gain will be possible over not less than 5 years. Which means 4 kg gain per year. Which means roughly 10 gram muscle gain per day!. Now a muscle is about 20% proteins and rest is glycogen/water/others. THEREFORE we are looking at 2 grams of dried muscle gain per day. THIS should be your incremental protein intake OVER your normal diet. Do you realize how puny this figure is?
5. The only issue with the above is that you should be in a caloric excess otherwise whatever proteins that you consume start being used as a fuel by your body instead of being used to pack on muscles.Therefore you will need to increase the intake of carbohydrates. You shouldn't care about counting calories because it is a highly stupid exercise. Besides everyone has different metabolic rate so in any case you will never know how many calories you require. A simple direction is that if you are NOT gaining weight per month - your have to increase carbs till the scale starts moving up. Carbs = rice, wheat, potato, veggies, fruits
6. Mass gainers are nothing but protein powder mixed with starch/sugars in about 20-80 ratio. Good morning everyone, do you know what is the macro-nutrient content of rice/wheat/legumes/pulses? Protein 10-20%. Carbohydrates ~85%. Isn't it mighty stupid to buy mass gainer powder when you can easily eat one more cup of rice instead?
7. Whether the mas being gained is fat or a mix of fat and muscles? Simple: keep a tab on your waist. Again if you tell the height, I can tell you the waist figure you should not exceed.
8. Now the gym part. I am sure you can stay out of gym and lifting weights for the time being. Pushups, pullups, squats, crunches, shoulder rotations (arms extended), heel raise etc can be done without any external weights. Do concentrate on increasing your reps (strict and with pause) over time in each exercise. Aim to reach figures like 100 pushups , 50 pullups, 200 squats etc.
).. slim..i am jus now started basic workouts like pushups,pullsups and not going for gym..like to put some weight whether i should go for any body weight gainer?
