QuestionWhat food should I eat to build my body fast?Pel de PindaCommunity AnswerMake sure you eat enough (if you're not fat, gain some weight). That is the most important part, but you also have to eat enough protein. You can drink milk, eat chicken and other meats, beans, cheese and protein shakes are also convenient to get enough protein in. Try to aim for 2 grams per kg of lean body mass. So if you weigh 80kg and have 20% body fat, then you need 80*0.8*2 = 128g of protein a day.

QuestionHow do I build my body quickly as a tall boy?Raphael KeyTop AnswererThe blessing and the curse of being tall is that you'll always look taller than you'll look fat, skinny or jacked. But the methods in the article still apply. Exercising and eating the right foods (high protein, clean carbs and non-saturated fats) will be very effective. If you want some personal recommendations however, I've found that tall people struggle with bench presses and squats but we can still do well with push ups and deadlifts. Just pick a routine and follow it with consistency and dedication and you'll have put on some noticeable mass in 8 weeks time.

QuestionHow often do I need to rest my body to build my body fast?Raphael KeyTop AnswererAs a general rule of thumb, let a muscle rest 24-48 hours after working it, depending on how hard you work it. If you do some push ups on Monday, you might be able to do some again on Tuesday. If you do push-ups, bench press, flys and some sled pushes then you'll need to rest until Wednesday or even Thursday. if you don't want to worry about this then don't try to make your own routine, use one that was made by someone else. it should have things like rest pre-programmed into the workout.

QuestionHow can I keep my obliques? It is very hard to keep.Raphael KeyTop AnswererObliques are stabilisers more than anything, so you'll develop good obliques if you remain tight throughout your big compound movements, your squats, deadlifts, overhead presses. But if you want to target your obliques and core more directly, try a side bend! Always look up how to perform an exercise properly before you do it yourself!

QuestionHow can I increase my weight and build body at home?Raphael KeyTop AnswererIncreasing weight and muscle mass requires you to eat more food. focus on proteins for muscle growth and clean carbs and fats for energy. For exercise, try to perform exercises like push ups, pull ups, squats and whatever core exercise you like the most. If you find these movements too easy or too hard, look up bodyweight progression and you should be able to find the variations of these exercises that challenge you just the right amount!

QuestionIs body building an easy task?Dmitriy SchwarzburgCommunity AnswerBody building takes a lot of commitment and if you are competing, a very strict exercise and diet regimen. You will have to track your macronutrients and count calories and exercise consistently, at times for several hours a day. The usual chain of events involves bulking for a few months, with high calories, high carbs, high protein, and low fat, followed by a cut, where you will significantly reduce your caloric intake and focus primarily on eating protein and vegetables, steering clear of carbohydrates and fats.
