The Hargainer Workout – Training Tips

34 Comments

Hi Mike here,

I just wanted to write an article about the method for a Hardgainer Workout.

Now there are thousands or articles and videos out there about the best way to work out, but not all of them are designed for you.

The Idea is to get the best results in the shortest amount of time.

I must let you know that this isn’t a quick fix solution that will give you the body of a moviestar with little or no effort.

Hardgainer training must be more intensive, and you have to be dedicated to doing it at least times a week.

What do I mean by “intensive”?

An intensive workout doesn’t mean that you have to lift weights that strain your muscles, or do hundred of reps.

What I mean by an intensive workout, is a workout which has little or no rest between each exercise, and working yourself to the max.

I always start with 2 sets of 10 burpies.

I do this first because it get the heart beating faster, before you start your weight lifting.

You want to be slightly out of breath all the way through your workout.

If you feel yourself recovering too much, then do another set of 10 burpies, and contiue you workout.

The good news is you don’t have to do any other cardio exercises.

You always want to include a bench press, squats, shoulder press, lat pull and dunbell rows.

You also want to include bicep curls, side raises and kickbacks.

I always finish with some crunches, which I add difficulty by holding a weight against my chest.

The next question is what weight, and how many reps.

Many people have different oppinions about how many reps you should do. Some people say 2 sets of 8, some say 10 and other say 15.

I always go with 8, as I think you want to lift heavier weights rather than do more reps.

The weight you should choose basically is down to your physical strength. I do all the exercises I mentioned in my workout, and perform them twice.

I.E. I will do 1 set of 8 reps of each of the exercises, and then repeat.

You shouldn’t be struggling in the first time round, but should find it quite hard by the second set.

You will probably find that you are constantly changeing your weights. This is fine, as long as you are improving over time and not straining yourself.

Normally the workout will last me about 45 minutes to an hour. If it’s taking longer that this for you, you are probably having too long a rest between each exercise.

Finally, remember that just working out isn’t going to give you the results you want.  You need to still to a rigid high calorie diet.

I will be writing another post in reference to this, but if you want a professional product that give you a proper diet plan, and advice on your workout please look at my “Products I Suggest” page.

This product is the one I am using at the moment, and I’m noticing a significant improvement already.  I wouldn’t suggest this product if I wasn’t 100% satisfied with it.

Please just watch the video, and you will be impressed with the amount of information it goes into.  It’s cheap, and it has a money back garauntee if you’re not completely satisfied.

Well, that’s “The Hardgainer Workout”. Please try it, and let me know how it works for you.

Hardgainer Workout Introduction

127 Comments

Hi there,

I created “The Hard Gainer Workout” site, because I like you have struggled my entire life with putting on weight.

If you would like to know more about me, please look at my “About Me” page, which you will find at the top of this page.

If you are visiting this site, you are obviously sick of being the skinny guy in the group.

If you’re like me, you probable also fed up with people telling you how lucky you are because you can eat what you want and not put on any weight.

These people don’t understand how hard it is for guys like us to build up, and it doesn’t seem to matter how much you go to the gym or how much you eat, you just can’t get the results you want.

There is a reason for this, and that is your motabilism.

So what can you do?

The best way is to have a high calorie, but low card diet.  The diet is the most important aspect of putting on weight, so I will be creating another post in respect to this shortly.

Also you must be committed to working out 4 to 5 times a week.

The type of exercises a Hardgainer Workout should include also very important.

What people often say about working out doesn’t necessarily apply to hardgainers like us, so it won’t necessarily work.

I’ve tried using protein shakes and this seemed to work for a while, but in actual fact all that realy happened was that I put on extra body fat and not much muscle.

This gave me a look of a skinny guy with a fat bely.  It almost looked like I was pregnant!

What you realy want is to put on lean muscle, which is long lasting.

This doesn’t mean that you need to do lots of cardio along with lifting heavy weights.

The best way is to hardgainer training, is to do high intensive training for shorter periods of time.

If you go to the gym you probably see loads of big guy spending hours lifting heavy weights with long intervals between each set.

This will work if you want to spend years to build up.

The fastest way is to have high intensive workouts which only last about 45-60 minutes.

This will mean that you work all your muscles in a short amount of time, with little or no rest between each exercise.

This will build your muscles up, wilst keeping you motabilism high enough to still burn any fat of in the rest period.

Another key point is what to eat, which I will go into futher in another article.
