Everyone responds differently to food, exercise, etc. so what works for others may not work for you. Taking protein supplements does not equal weight gain. You have to practice protein sparing, consuming the proper carbs and fats with your protein, so your body isn't burning the protein instead of using it to build muscle. And you have to time your consumption: too much and your kidneys will filter it off. Creatine is not a protein or a steroid-- it's a natural chemical found in meat that allows muscle cells to perform more work. It won't help you bulk up directly, but it will allow you to work harder for longer, putting more strain on muscles, thereby stimulating muscle growth. It'll also cause your cells to store water, which can give you that bulky, firm appearance. Whey protein is the best-quality protein you can buy-- it's not a magical type of protein, but contains all the amino acids. \n\nDon't waste your time on supplements! If you're trying to gain muscle, it's going to take exercise, time and a proper diet. When exercising, change your routine up every 6 to 12 weeks to ensure you're challenging and stimulating your muscles and your central nervous system. Your body will adapt to exercise to become smarter at it, while it may not become stronger. Like practising a jump shot, etc. your body becomes more efficient and in tune with the motion. Everyone puts on muscle at different rates, and some can be very strong without much mass at all. Don't compare yourself-- take the time to listen to your body, it will tell you what to do. And you'll avoid injuries if you avoid the rush, as well as boredom. And eat!! Don't cut anything out, just be smart about it. Eat protein from low-fat sources like chicken and fish. Choose carbs with a high glycemic index, so they break down more gradually, providing energy over a longer period. Things like whole grains, brown rice, etc. And eat plenty of fruits and veggies! Remember too that your body will not "create extra" if you don't provide it. If your energy budget doesn't provide some extra calories at the end of the day to "bank," your body won't have anything to work with. And muscle takes a lot of protein and energy to maintain. If you want to bulk up, you have to provide just a little extra-- but the right kind.\n\nIf you're still thinking of taking a supplement, try these: a multi-vitamin to ensure you're getting all your nutrients; an Omega fatty-acid supplement to ensure healthy cellular development; and a high-quality protein supplement. These three supplements are good for every cell in your body-- not just the muscles. When taking the protein, try it at various times-- many people recommend the morning, since your body's supply of free protein is virtually exhausted. Some will say before or after weight training, since this provides protein when your muscles need it at various stages. And still others will say even before bedtime, since much of your body's protein synthesis occurs then.\n\nRemember, you can't supplement exercise, rest and nutrition!

Some reviews:\nN0-Explode is a fun product. You will get CRAZY amped, but not much else. The Arginine works by dialating the blood vessels, but all of the caffine closes your blood vessels. You are left with paying 60 dollars for a caffine boost. Try a preworkout supp. like NOX-CG9, you will get much better results, albiet without the rush.\n\nI am in high school and have been working out for about 3 years. I have been working out with NO XPLODE for 3 months now and have had results right away. from not being tired, having edurance, and size...diffinatly size. I would recommed this to any one who takes working out seriously and is looking for a little bost.

Since you are an etcomorph.  Being of smaller frame and you probably have a high metabolic rate, I would suggest eating a lot.  Healthy stuff of course though.  Like eat lean meat, vegetables, and fruits.  Try to get at least 3,000 calories a day.  Try drinking protein shakes after your workouts and energy drinks before.\n\nOkay so you have a dumbell..maybe two..use it for compound exercises like hold one dumbbell in each hand and squat.  Also use if for lunges. Hold one dumbbell in hand and have other hand against wall...move calf up and down..this is standing calf raise. For upper body, do shoulder press and maybe upright or bent rows.  If you have rudimentary bench you can do bench presses.  You can do these w/o weights too..like body weight squat, pushups, and situps.\n\nGood luck..be sure to eat and also get another dumbell. You need protein to build muscle.

Go to your local Health store, such as GNC, and pick up something called Weight Gainer 2000.  Drink the recommended number of these shakes a day and eat as you normally do.

I think you should go with slightly lower weights, maybe eight or five pounds. I work out a lot and even when im just using 12 pound dumbells i get bulky in my arms pretty easy. Using a lower weight with more reps would help with toning without making your arms look bigger. Thats just me might be different with you. My weight usually fluctuates about five pounds but i weighed in yesterday at 128. Im 5'4.

nope.\nAdvair is from a completely different steriod family. No chance that it will cause you to bulk up.

if you are 105lbs...you probably have a really fast metabolism and will need to get a lot of protein in your diet...i would suggest getting whey protein and taking this after going to the gym.  whey protein isnt any kind of steroid or creotine or any of that crap, its just protein...and its what you'd need to if you want to increase your muscle mass.  with that said get to the gym and do lifts focusing on those muscle groups, bench press is definitely one of the best for your chest and theres any number of exercises such as curls you can do for your biceps.  if you can get a friend to lift, i would definitely suggest free weights over machines, but if its just yourself then machines would probably be ok.  keep in mind that to increase muscle mass and make yourself stronger you want to do fewer reps with each set and rest between sets. if you have fine strength but just want to tone then do more reps with less rest between sets.  finally, dont just do chest and biceps. definitely work your triceps and shoulders if you want to have good arms...also dont forget about your back and legs. get a routine that incorporates most of that, and lift 1 or 2 muscle groups a day alternating routines.

Have a slim fast shake WITH your meals\n\nThere are also weight gain products that you can get from stores like GNC that work well.  Each shake has about 1000-2000 calories

Do this before you spaz out anymore.  Wrap your thumb and ring finger around the narrow part of your wrist.  If they overlap (my guess is they will), you have what is called a narrow frame.  You're built for speed not power my friend.  Keep eating well, keep working out, research and try different supplements, but realize there are genetic limitations on all of us.  If you're under 25 you probably have about 10-30 natural pounds of solid 'man thickness' (I think Stuart Scott from ESPN used that term about Barry Bonds) coming your way as your body matures.  You'll find a natural weight that feels good, don't worry.  Remember, your frame is built that way for a reason.  It won't do you any good in 20 years to be carrying around 50 excess pounds, whether it's muscle or fat.  Measure yourself by how you feel, not how much you weigh or what someone else looks like or weighs.  Every day in the gym should only be a competition against yourself.  Beat the you of yesterday and enjoy the victory.\nRemember, every pound over what your body is built for is extra strain on your system to maintain, and will require extra calories as well.  Do you really want to spend your life shoveling mass quantities of food into your gullet just to acheive a number on some inanimate device?  Be strong, be lean, and be well my friend.

honestly, you are more than thin.  6'4" onlly 130lbs is very unhealthy.  your body might be eating itself (burning your muscles) for energy.  first off, i really suggest you start eating a lot!  make sure you get more than enough calories ...just eat everything in sight.  \n\nyou need to eat everything you can because you obviously are not eating enough currently.  your body is not getting enough calories to support itself.  working out requires a lot of energy and unless you eat, anything you do in the gym won't result in any muscle growth.\n\nso, assuming you eat a lot from now on and i guess you're relatively new to working out, concentrate on 3 lifts: benchpress, squats, and deadlifts.  you can google those if you don't know what they are.  try for 3-4 workouts, 1 hour each per week with rest days in between workouts so your muscles can grow/repair.

Your weight does not seem to be high but it is understandable for anyone to want to look better. Best thing to do is to work out and start eating healthier. You shouldn't worry so much about your weight and worry more about how you look and how healthy you are. There are some people who weigh 80 pounds but are nothing but 80 pounds of fat; and yet others weigh 200 but are 200 pounds of muscle.\nIf you work out you may look thinner but be gaining weight this is because muscle weighs more than fat. Don't worry about your weight worry about your health. These are secrets which keep me fit and healthy.\n\nTry to follow the food pyramid...its on the back of most cereal boxes. If you follow this you will realize you will be eating less because when you need to eat 6 servings of fruit you get filled pretty quick.\n\nAlso follow serving sizes on packages. If it says one serving is 4 cookies you should eat 4 cookies.\n\nWork out. Get a personal trainer. Or ask someone who knows what they are doing. Don't strain yourself because that is always worse.\n\nAnd try to give yourself a little leeway. If you want an extra cookie, and extra fruit give it to yourself. If your still hungry always eat. If your hungry it is because your body needs it.\n\nLies like carbs being bad for you is not true. Humans need carbs to function. Especially for brain power. You don't want to be a beautiful retard right!...You just need to do everything in moderation. Remember don't drink alcohol either because those drinks are not necessary and add to excess fat.\n\nRemember your health should always be a priority. Imagine if the person closest to you were to become very sick. It's always scary when our lives are in danger so don't put your own in danger.\n\nStay healthy!

I have worked out both on the revolution and the older bow flex model. Both are a great substitute for free weights. They both require they use of stabilizing muscles unlike most machine which in turn provide a better work out than most machines. If you cannot afford a gym membership I feel like this is the most economic solution. It is worth the price for for results.
