This is me 7 years back and now. It takes time and hard work. But its logical. Calorie intake (Food Consumed)Calorie burned ( Resting metabolism + Calories burned during exercise)Calories intake > Calories burned--> Weight gainCalories intake < Calories burned--> Weight lossBut I hope you are already eating with your full capacity but still not gaining weight. Right?Solution: You have to eat food which is dense in calories like fat. Obviously healthy fat. Try peanut butter of good quality.Second, High calorie shakes as drinking is easier than chewing.Exercise: 1. Exercise duration should be less than 1 hour.2. Take 2-3 minute rest between sets.3. Always take pre-workout and post-workout meal.Recipe of homemade peanut butter and high-calorie shake is available on my YOUTUBE channel DP FITNESS.PM me if you are looking for a trainer.Thanks,DeepakNESTA certified fitness trainer. read less
