What are the best ways to start increasing muscle mass?

Answer by  drJ (841)

You will need a combination of exercise and increased protein in your diet. The protein (shakes or powders) will provide the building blocks for new muscle created by lifting weights.

Working out is the best way to increase muscle mass. It's important to rotate muscle groups so that you don't overwork a particular muscle/group, though. Muscle mass gains can be increased rapidly through the consumption of protein, preferably whey protein. It is recommended that you take 1g per pound of non-fat body weight.

Cardio (like running) will burn calories but no build muscle. Lifting weights and doing certain amount of reps for each area of your body will increase mucsle.

You have to work out with preferably heavier weights and less repetitions tan you normally would. A person can increase musles also by eating a lot of proteins, and carbs like bread and pastas, but you have to exercise to develop muscle.
