Specific diet to build muscle mass for a fairly skinny 17 year old?!
Question: Specific diet to build muscle mass for a fairly skinny 17 year old!?
Hi i'm 17, 5'6 (Stopped growing) and weigh 127 pounds (57 kilos)!.
I'm fairly skinny but kind of have a 4 pac, but i guess that is down to the fact i have only 8% body fat!.
I want to put on some muscle and i have the weights and all the equipment but i really need a good diet plan to aid my muscle growth!.
I bought some protein shakes and have been advised to drink one in the morning and one after i work out
But what else do i need to eat!?
I!.!.E should i be eating more protein based foods than normal!? More meals a day!? If i'm skinny then should i eat more fat rich foods to bulk up a bit (because right now i eat a lot but never put on any fat whatsoever as i have quite a nifty metabolism)!?
Whats the best kind of food to eat for breakfast!?
If someone could give me a specific plan i would be most grateful as i feel my skinny physique is holding me back from putting any serious muslce mass on!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Answers:
If you have a fast metabolism you're really just going to have to eat A LOT!.
Yes you should eat more protein, 2 whole eggs, two egg whites, 6 ounces of sausage, a cup of oatmeal for breakfast and some fruit!.
Two hours later, make a big turkey sandwich, white turkey, whole wheat bread, vegetables, eat that!.
Two hours after that, lunch!. Two grilled chicken breasts, 8 oz steamed vegetables, a cup of brown rice!.
Two hours after that, maybe you worked out, so have your shake!. Then dinner!.
Keep your fiber intake high and make sure you are also drinking lots of water!. It's also okay if you eat some junkfood, you'll need the calories and to eat something you like in order to keep eating!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

make sure you have a protein shake before and after your workout!. the main thing to do when putting on weight is to keep eating throughout the day every few hours!. you should intake roughly 6 small meals a day - you can replace some of those meals with a protein shake!.
and when lifting weights, you need to lift high weights with low reps!. basically you should be lifting weights which you can just about lift 3 sets of 6-8 reps!. maybe for the last set you can choose an even higher weight and just do 4-6 reps!. and stick to free weights rather than machines cos that'll provide you with a more effective workout!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
