as a 31 year old who has never been over 125 and been trying everything I can, this was by far the most straight forward and most "dont over think" sort of video ive seen. Cheers.
Yup everyone think they are going to be Greek gods but that’s just not realistic. I put on 50 pounds in 18 months by eating everything in sight I don’t want to be Arnold just a big dude. I’m 6’4 and started at 175 pounds now I’m at 225 goal is 280
@@ganggang6146 I gained 45 lbs in prison, I'd say 5 lbs of it was fat I used my body weight to work out plus a 30 lb water bag. I'm 5"8' I went from 135 to 180 in 6 months.
It's been 2 weeks now, may I ask if you've made any progress towards increasing your weight? I'm also having that issue and Im just wondering hownits been working for you?
@@mv.d.h4623 you gotta eat high calories and work out that's it. If you ain't making progress than you ain't doin either of those two right there's no other special to get results bro
Love how instead of just telling us to buy his guide and praising that he gives us hella good free options that we can use if we don’t want to buy anything you a real one keep it up man
Yup. Also love the fact that the program is actually a fair price. Many people are selling programs for three, four and five times the price. For a first time program that Joe has made, and for something to try out that will guide you through it, it is a great price to give it a shot 💪
I never watched a video of bulking or some gym tips but this guy made me watch whole thing without even knowing anyway guys i started bulking 2 months ago its going good seeing changes and i will do 2 pushup for every likes
i have exactly the same, i looked up so many videos and tried stuff but nothing talked abt the things i struggled with and now i found this video truly hope it helps
This is really good if you keep this up you will get jacked because your body will have an excessive amount of recourses like protein and fat and you will be able to burn that and probaly get you dream physique
I was confused when I was working out and realized I wasn’t gaining size. So once I stopped working out and just ate for weeks, I started to see size in my arms and I look bigger overall without losing any tone that I previously had. Now back to working out, lifting weights only and I’m still seeing good changes. Good video.
exact same thing happened to me lol. During end of school season I started working out, barely made any gains over 2 months (obviously because I was eating maybe 1.5K - 2K calories a day lol) and couldn't even bench 95 lbs. Then summer hit, I went back to visit my family in my home country. My grandparents fed me high caloric foods everyday like rice, goat meat and condensed milk. I gained some pounds, hit the gym first day back late august, and then I easily crushed 95 lbs bench and hit a new PR of 115 lbs shortly after.
@@Caaro99 Bro, after I ate and went back to the gym I crushed 135lbs on the bench like it was nothing, I was like throwing the weight up and down. I’m around 220-235 on the bench now, but it’s weird how our bodies work.
@@mehmetaltunkaya1827 make sure to buy a food weight machine its litterly saved me. you need to track your calories to know if you eat a lot. and good luck your gonna make it!
Finally a good, short, easy, straight forward guide from someone who used to be where i've been all my life. There are thousands of videos/guides out there for losing weight but so few of gaining for really skinny people. People who can put on fat/weight by "just staring at food" makes me jealous, and when i tell them that i can (and do) eat pizzas, hamburgers, tacos, chips, fried chicken etc.. all week long every day and mabye lose 1-2 pounds and they get jealous of me i almost get really mad at them. They don't realise that i Want to gain weight from it, that's why I'm eating it, not to boast about never gaining a pound for my effort. I as well have so little appatite, can barely finish a pizza by myself even if i've not eaten in 6-7 hours even though i've been active. I'm 24 years old, and I still weigh the same as when i was 14. I way between 55-58kgs, i just go back and forth, never more never less. I don't like eating big portions so i will try more protein shakes/smoothies. Anyways thanks for this vid man.
I live in cuba, i cant eat any food that contains gluten, nevertheless, i try to achieve every day the 6 meals per day plan, and i go to the gym 3 days a week, mondays wednesdays and fridays , and honestly I've gained some weight, in this moment I weight 64kg , but food in this country doesn't help me, if I were you I'd try with some protein shakes , it would be quickly and easier, greets!
fast metabolism same here, always used to struggled with eating more and never thought I could but 3 months ago or so I started for real taking it seriously and tracking my cals, did around 3k a day and since then I'm up from 125 ish to about 155 which feels great. When I first started I bought this mass gainer called transparent labs pretty pricey but it's all good ingredients and even has creatine in it so I don't need to take any separately, I used to need to drink the shake at night which helped me out with about 900 cals to help me reach my daily goal but since about a month ago I've actually been needing it less and less and am just getting better at eating enough actual food to reach the goal. still drink it every so often though for the protein and creatine. my advice is just start tracking your stuff and take it day by day, make it your goal to reach that cals per day and focus on hitting it no matter what keep it up stay consistent and you will see change. also buy a scale lol weigh yourself every morning 1:40 exactly this right here (remove the ice cream though lol, use myfintnesspall and keep watch of your protein/sugar/sodium/cholesterol, etc. don't go above id say 100g a day of sugar and that's honestly pushing it, just because you want to gain weight doesn't mean you should be sacrificing your health because of it, there's 2 sides from looking healthy and being healthy 3:11 honestly a good tactic I hadn't known or thought of, and the opposite id assume goes for bigger people trying to lose weight.
total bs, the faster you eat, the less you chew, the less it gets digested and do not get add up to the body. To bulk fast, start chewing your food till it becomes a paste. (Do not worry about time)
@@gauravkumarrana6870 it is not about how fast the body can digest the food, it more on appetite side of thing. I feel like i need to force myself to finish a meal which doesn't feel good at all. Plus, the slower i eat, the lesser the time for my body to get ready for next meal. Example if i eat my 2nd meal at 10am and the next meal is at 12pm, if i eat slower means i finish my 2nd meal at 1045, then my body only has 1hr15mins to digest the food and i still feel full at that point.
@@aki_gunting4644 I have similar issue man, I find putting on a really intriguing YT vid or TV series helps me distract myself from the fact I’m eating and so even though I take about 30mins to finish eating I just keep eating for the whole time and this helps me more than the 5 mins thing. If that doesn’t work for you maybe give this ago?
@@gauravkumarrana6870 the less you chew doesn't actually translate to the less you digest. You will digest the food even if you just swallow it as a whole. The calories of the food doesn't magically disappear breaking the laws of thermodynamics. Worst case scenario is you will have diarrhoea. But you don't need to sit there and chew for 30 minutes just for it to "digest". Plus people with less hunger tend to eat less because they take forever to eat a meal(like me lol). I know this because I study about this.
This is literally the perfect UA-cam video. It is jam packed with everything we need to know in one simple short video with only helpful information and a great delivery. No BS. No Scams. Just honesty. I could not like this video enough. You are a great youtuber! Keep up the good work and thank you so much!
About a year ago I was 130 lbs at 17 years old and being 6ft tall. Current day I am now up to around 150 lbs. I am still pretty skinny but thanks to you I am seeing lots of improvements. 💪
Hi Joe, this video was super helpful. I’m a 14 year old 48 kg kid trying to get bigger like you did back then. You’re such an amazing UA-camr and I respect you so much. Thank you.
i have 49 and 14 yrs too brother I am with you, I am like you And I'm trying to grow too I support you because I know it's hard, so let's go to training, we have a long way to go but we have to become a Sigma!! :)))
As a 44-year-old I can tell you can get away with more / bad diet when you are young. I ate really bad and was always active and never was overweight or obese. Today in my 40s even eating a lot better I was having blood sugar issues as a result of eating poorly in my 20s and 30s. So as I agree you need to eat more to gain more muscle, it comes at a cost. Large meals shoot your blood sugar and causes a yo yo effect with your blood sugar. I would probably say learn to eat well, make more caloric healthy soups (using healthier fats such as cashews), and smoothies in addition to all the other healthy foods you eat. I think the workout advice is good here. For younger folks, you cannot out work a poor diet. Thin people get type 2 diabetes and heart attacks. Be smart please with your diet, you don't need crazy experimental supplements. Also, a lot of the standard brand protein powders have heavy metals in it. Try to stick to whole foods. There is some good advice here, though. I get the struggle so many have with trying to put on pounds.
Agree with this. For any young people watching this video (which is mostly good advice), please be careful with long term consumption of bad foods to get your weight up - this is not sustainable and you will end up with health problems later in life.
Yes, finally... an intelligent comment. Also, dont forget about insulin resistance, metabolic disorders, tumors, cancer, etc. This type of diet kills people.
I'm 20 years old and i've been struggling to gain weight my whole life because of my bad apitite and fast metabolism, I was always the skinny guy and I still am. I just started my first bulk on my birthday which was 11 oktober. This time was different than any other time i tried. It's people like you that give me that strength to give it 1 more shot and give everything I have got, I found out that liquid calories + nuts/granola are the LITERAL cheat code to bulking. I've worked really hard everyday. Went from 56.5 to 64.4 by the time writing this.(29 Nov) I just want to say thank you @Joe Fazer, for letting me believe in myself 1 more time, and changing my life for the better.
@ thanks for your reaction, took a break around August with a weight of 70.0KG! My goal was accomplished, since at the start of the year I wanted to get on the plane to my holliday with 70kg. Now im going strong at 72Kg with very minimal weight gain at the moment. Ive reached the goal I wanted and looking back its really just eating a hole damn lot. Right now, I am just maintaining my body and not really pushing my limits anymore. Thanks for your reaction!
@ But it was a whole jouney my friend, went from 56.5 KG to 64,5, got hospitalized for a really bad lung infection which lasted 2 weeks. I lost almost 8kg and went back to 57KG. This gave me so much drive to work that i pushed through and made it back and even further…70KG. I could only imagine that back a few years ago. And that just shows that with the right minset and dedication you can do it.
I’m currently 16, about to be 17. I’m a junior in high school and I currently weigh 127.6. I’ve been picked on a lot just for being skinny and I’m completely new to working out in general. I’m going to use your guide to bulk up. Thank you so much for all the work you put in to this video. No bs, no self promotion. Just straight up advice. You have motivated me to keep going, when I was about to quit my home workouts because little progress was being made. Thank you so much, much love.
Hi mate, please see my reply to Javier above. A lot of what this guy recommends isn't that good for you. Find a healthier way or you could suffer later. Good luck!
I want to point not only “at least 8hours of sleep” is important, BUT to stick to a regular sleeping routine at night. 8 hours of night-sleep always beats out 10 hours of day-sleep due to how our body clock works.
“When the going gets tough, you get tougher” never quit or let your pessimistic thoughts drown you out, you are just as much of a legend as any of your idols, keep that in mind and only compete with yourself, much love wish everyone the absolute best!
Was on my calorie goal every day for a good 2 months. Got tired of feeling nauseous all the time when eating lots and lost motivation. Gonna try again with some new tricks from here wish me luck
nah fr this is the worst part. when i first started i immediately jumped to 3k-3.3k calories everyday. at the beginning i would always wake up in the middle of the night feeling insanely nauseous then always debating whether its worth it or not. eventually gained 15 pounds. biggest weight gain ive had in years. gonna try and start up again as well. good luck on your journey my friend we'll see how we're doing within the year
@@Zyloll You should measure how many calories you eat now, then increase for a 1000 for example, it you start gaining weight then increase it again for 1000 and so on
definitely going to be harder for you in terms of aesthetics because you need a lot of muscle to fill your body up because of your height and long arms, even if you were 70kg in muscle you probably wouldnt look like it
Nice to hear someone that knows what he’s talking about. I was extremely skinny in my early 20’s and had to take this approach, but you’ll find as you get older you’ll go the opposite way. I’m now in my 40’s and my metabolism has slowed way down. You’ll find you need to eat healthier instead of eating as much as you can of the junky foods.. Also wouldn’t recommend constant heavy weights years on end trying to bulk. You’ll feel,it on your joints when you get older trust me there. Mix it up with resistance bands. Great video anyway!
I agree with all of this. I started lifting at 6’1” and 115lbs. I’m now 6’3” 185 I’m 35 now but gained the first 40 - 50 pounds in about 3 years during high school and college.
I'm a 29 year old, 6'6" (198cm) skinny guy who worked out on and off since I was 16 and never had the results I wanted until I really started tracking calories. I was eating way less than I thought I was and tracking showed me that. Now I'm the biggest I've ever been and I'm still gaining 💪
@@energix13 eat breakfast lunch and dinner at LEAST. Bananas and peanutbutter for breakfast is good if u cant eat anything else. Drink protein shakes, etc etc. Get in good calories
Dude this is the video I needed! I’m a 17 year old male 173cm/5’8 feet and I’ve been trying to get past 60kg for the past 1.5 years of my life. For the past 4 months I’ve been stuck around 57-59KG and now hopefully this will finally work as my dietitian aswell gave up on me. Edit: we’ll turns out I do have a condition but they can’t seem to find out what it is. I have tot eat 4000 calories a day now to even stay on the same weight but unfortunately I’ve gone down to 53KG
I have similar problems (60kg for 172cm). Since I have started working out I havent gained a single kilogramm in 6 months although Im consuming way more calories than in the past. If I spend all my day eating I would definitely put on weight but that time investment just doesnt seem worth it for me if I got other stuff to do
I never comment on videos but this one has literally got the best tips to bulk up! 100% agree with all of them. No BS, no 15-20 min video, just perfect!
I'm a female not skinny - not fat - need to tone up and just looked at your video as a matter of interest-it's really good! I love how you have 'your own' advice ... well done!
I'm a skinny guy with a few dietary issues always struggled gain weight, always around 7.5 st .finally learning what foods I can have. And trying to increase my daily intake. While following your videos and learning the techniques to these moves. I'm now gonna start my journey and keep a diary off my progress thank you for your knowledge 🙏 and inspiration
Duuuude thank you so much for such a straightforward content. This is by far the most realistic explanation of how my life is currently at. My BW is 53kg and i have been in the gym for only 7 months, before i started the gym i was at 46-48 kg going up and down. I had struggled with food but i tried different ways to get them down my throat such as changing the place of where i eat or even the light in the room and even the plate's style, colour and drawings if it had any. I recommend even having to eat at large plates, for example a ration of meal to plate normally around 50 to 80%, i tried to change that to 30-80%, which means the plate is 50% bigger than the meal itself. I hope i helped somebody out there and thank you for such content once again.
@@s-_-831 Damn you was really underweight for your age, I was 63kg (183cm tall) for the past 5 years (and I was skinny af with no chest) but since i've been eating more frequent I gained 10kg in 5 months, I'm 21 and 72kg now
@@sinon7088 How can you assume they're underweight? It might be completely healthy and normal for someone to be 55kgs at 21. If they're 5 foot 11 then yes they would be underweight, but if they're 5 foot 4 or 5 that's a good weight.
I weighed around 115 at the start. I didn't know what I was doing for a long time so as I tried gaining with but had no appetite or motivation, I only gained about 2lbs for at least 3-4 months. But, I decided to put the work in and eat a lot more. I made sure to eat every opportunity I had. If I wasn't full, I would eat until I was. You gotta learn to love the feeling of being FULL. Like, STUFFED full. My appetite naturally began to pick up tremendously once I did this. I started eating a lot of food, even keeping up with one of the heavy eaters in my family and after Thanksgiving, made it to 120. This made my motivation so much stronger. This month, I've gone extremely hard on my eating and working out and now I weigh 125. Its not much to someone much bigger, but for me, finally seeing those numbers go up faster and faster is a blessing. I've so far gained 5lbs in a month, which is my fastest weight gain ever. People have noticed a dramatic weight gain compared to how I used to be and its not slowing down anytime soon. Just keep eating and working out. Its so worth it just for the joy alone of feeling bigger and better than you were before. I nearly cried just hitting 120, which sounds underweight to me, but I spent my teenage years not even at 100lbs. You can make it!
Hi Joe, im a german skinny guy who more or less consistently watches your videos since almost the beginning of your training journey. I must say these vids motivated me so much in the last years and i think its mainly because all the points you mention are exactly what im going through while gaining weight and muscles and i feel personally adressed by your content. I gained about 10 kilos in the last year by following your advices and I feel so much better now. It just gives me a huge confidece boost. Thank you for your content and keep up the good work mate✌️🤝
Making sure to hit legs more, to the point I actually really look forward to it, and taking multivitamins and NO precursor food/sups probably made the biggest difference for me. The combination of proper nutrients, mood boost, and being more happy with myself physically also helped my mood improve greatly. Good video!
Hey, I was just wondering, is it okay if I workout 3 hours a day, every day? ( compound workouts) ( not a bro split) with only rest on sundays, but working out 3 hours a day everyday. is it okay? IM A 16 YEAR OLD BEGINNER BTW
As a person who's always struggled to get decent sleep and gain weight, Joe's overall advice about working out and diet is super helpful. Cuts the crap and gets to the point. Within 4 months I went from 59kg to 70kg, this includes a fair bit of cardio twice a week at football practise whilst keeping on top of eating (most days). Big up lad! 😀
@@JBittermusic 100% at times yeah. The more work you put your body through, the more it needs to fuel up on protein intake. Give your body a reason to be hungry.
I love how even through all these hard times of trying to gain weight and failing your still positive I really needed this to gain weight for football next season thanks Joe
2:48 is such a game changer, i always had a problem eating super slow when watching things or being distracted but this helped me eat a lot more a lot quicker and not feel as full so fast. Goated video
I started the gym around 5 months ago and have gained around 10kg (I’ve gone from 68kg to about 78.5kg). The weight gainer shakes are so helpful and I find oats and nuts to be massively helpful too. I buy a flapjack for every day of the week(500 kcal per one). Peanuts are great (so many calories and easy to eat). I’m deffo gonna have to try out your shake tho mate 100%, looks yummy as well. I’ll take your advice on the muscle groups thing about the bro split because I have fallen into this trap once or twice aha. Thanks for the tips 💪
@@reee6946 I just buy regular cheap peanuts from Lidl or Aldi. The calories in them are insane, think the bag I bought was around 2000 calories for like £1. They obviously not the healthiest but to snack on and gain a few extra calories it’s perfect. And as for oats I just buy flapjacks. They are pretty big, and think you can buy them in bulk on eBay. Can’t remember the brand name tho dude

@@Guardian08 i dont know about the theory, but its something like ur muscle remember how much they've grown, so if u start lifting again it'll grow faster than ur first time
@@Guardian08 muscle is always harder to gain the first time around. If you lose it it will take a tremendously less time compared to the first time. Though its still a bit of a hassle to get it back it takes alot less time
i struggle with IBD which made me incontinent for 5 years, as you can guess this made me extremley skinny at one point i was 20 klios bellow average wheight. this has helped so much so genuinely thank you.
Dude, I appreciate this video so much. Because I think the problem with a lot of skinny guys is trying to be lean from the start... like you said, just get those damn calories in, build up the body and then when you're feeling a lot bigger, you can go more lean and focus on the 'perfect' diet. Also, great tips in general - you cut the crap and just got straight to point. Cheers mate.
can confirm that this is very well put. Ive been bulking and doing my research on my side and came up to all the same conclusions as he did. dont give up my skinny bros
Ive been lifting for over a year and u have really helped me and focuses on problems that I face that I thought no one else has, thanks man ur a legend
Stepping into to the gym for the first time tomorrow. I’m 124lbs right now and I hope to look back on this video when I’ve reached my goal of 150lbs. Wish me luck!
This video was actually really useful I remember watching your transformation and you were the only person was has actually been similar to myself. I’m 6’6 weighing just under 11 stone. Started doing push-ups at hone for a month, 100 a day and saw small improvements but could never get it spot on. This video has really helped me and I’m actually for one looking forward too trying out everything you said. Thank you
Thank you, joe! I lost weight because I had a tuberculosis and I am so skinny now, I am motivated and I will start doing your tips as soon as I am fully recovered! :) All the best for your channel!
Progressive overload can be done in multiple ways, not just putting more weight on bar. Eg, less rest time or added reps. If you can’t put more on bar these are a great alternative 💪🏼
There is a point of diminishing returns with adding reps though. For example, if you're using the same 10 pound dumbbell since you started working out 3 years ago and doing sets of 50 for bicep curls, you're pretty much wasting your time.
@@leviathan3630 pretty sure hes saying if the next dumbbell up is 10lbs and you need maybe just +3lbs, do a few more reps and then upgrade +10lbs, not use the same weight for a year and add reps…
I’m speechless, this was SO helpful, this legit helped me with everything i need because he literally described my flaws and how to fix them as a skinny guy
This was really useful. I weight 54kg at the moment and i am in the search of ways to gain weight. and this is cut out so simple in a language i understand. Therefor this makes it very useful. Thank you
A genuinely beautifully compact and informative video, this is fantastic. On behalf of all skinny men and women I personally want thank you joe for making this for us.
That timed eating trick is so efficient when training your body to eat more. Ever since I started working carpentry, they would only give us a 15 minute break for 8 hours of work. Ever since then I’ve started eating WAY more then k used to
Finally a dude that addresses the appetite issue with real tips, and goes to the point concisely while making it the most of his video. I'm gonna give it a try because i still can't get more than 2 meals a day for years now and still skinny. Plus i do BJJ and plan to compete. I'm adding a 5x5 workout to prepare for competition in october and i'd like to get 5kg of extra muscle and see my shoulders and arms grow. Will start implementing these strategies tomorrow. Thanks for that video mate
Btw i'd like to add that the timer thing works like a charm. I will have to postpone the gains atm, i need to cut weight for a competition (1kg so should be easy lol )
This shake is something I need to add into my diet. I've been trying to eat 7 eggs in the morning and 4 potatoes at night with protein shakes in milk to drink on top of an extra 1000 calories I have to eat during the day. Drinking the shakes are mega easy, but it's so difficult to get through the breakfast and dinner meals. A 1000 calorie shake is so easy to get down, and I can just carry it with me.
This is actually a really good quality video! I'm skinny but been going to the gym long enough to know all these tips but everything here is so accurate, especially the tips about how to eat more. Forcing myself to eat quickly is something I discovered recently and helps me finish my meals.
Thank you Joe. This was the most straight-to-the-point video on weight gaining I’ve seen thus far. Definitely going to be adding these tips to my routine! Cheers!
I'm 12 and starting bodybuilding. I'm quite skinny. I have plant protein 1 scoop (36 grams) and I weigh about 36-38Kg. The calorie meals I've needed the most. Thankyou king!
my g, enjoy your youth. Its normal to be skinny when you're 12, the best time to start gymming is prob around 15-16 and even then you shouldn't overdo it or it could affect your natural height growth.
Thanks for this video. I am built much like you were, a walking stick at 125lb 5ft 9 and at 32 yrs old and I'm tired of feeling inadequate. This summer I'm committed to changing it and your story is very inspirational for me man.
Im 6 feet 4 was 155lbs 1 year ago. Now today exactly a year apart I’m now 176lbs with not a ton of muscle growth, but definitely bulked up a lot and I’m not AS skinny as I used to be. I got a membership at a really good gym and am starting my road to 200lbs tomorrow. I will take the advice in this video and use it, thank you!
Great tips man. Especially liquid calories & not being afraid to eat junk to get the calories down. I am 5 foot 6 and started at 126lbs very skinny. I am now 160lbs and used a very similar approach to you. I hope to get up to 165-170 some day.
I’m pretty embarrassed to say this, but I’m like 5’5 -5’6 and I’m just barely at a 100 pounds. I’ve never worked out, and I’m trying to get a lot of muscle, so that I’m not so insecure anymore, do you recommend any foods I should eat with a lot of protein, and workouts I should do at home with not much equipment, I would really appreciate bro, and congrats to you, on your workout too!
Honestly this session seems like the one i could enjoy the most i literaly tought about making my gym life like that but now u verifyed its a good way so thx
I use this cycle: 1 week full body, 1 week PPL and finally 1 week bro split. All of them with the same exercises. Change exercises after 3 months. Really good gains!
Hey, I was just wondering, is it okay if I workout 3 hours a day, every day? ( compound workouts) ( not a bro split) with only rest on sundays, but working out 3 hours a day everyday. is it okay? IM A 16 YEAR OLD BEGINNER BTW
Now that I think about it the 5 minute meal was something that was working really well for me & I need to get back into it. I was studying like 9 hours a day before so my meals had to be eaten quickly + I was sitting a lot. 4-5 meals a day (each about 500 calories) allowed me to gain 10lbs in 10 weeks.
I`m a super skinny guy, and its very hard for me to gain weight even though my appetite is pretty high. Just started to go to the gym a month ago and do pull, push, leg workout program with 2 days rest a week. Looking at your body transformation motivate me to workout more. Hoping can have a body like you one day. Thanks for the guide!!!

Every skinny guy who cant gain weight, says i have a large appetite.. but no you dont, if your working out till failure atleast 3 or 4 times per week and you aren't gaining , then you arent eating enough, and doubtfully working out to failure...
Ive found that all my clients who say they "eat loads" etc actually eat 3 meals a day plus a protein shake and maybe a little fruit . When i say at least double it , they think im joking. As the kid in this explained force food and water in
Thanks heaps bro, I’m a boxer currently at 61 kg looking to gain some muscle and go up a couple weight classes and this video has helped massively, not only pointing out the obvious stuff but giving little tips cos you know for some people it’s not as easy as just doing it.
as a 31 year old who has never been over 125 and been trying everything I can, this was by far the most straight forward and most "dont over think" sort of video ive seen. Cheers.
Yup everyone think they are going to be Greek gods but that’s just not realistic. I put on 50 pounds in 18 months by eating everything in sight I don’t want to be Arnold just a big dude. I’m 6’4 and started at 175 pounds now I’m at 225 goal is 280

I was confused when I was working out and realized I wasn’t gaining size. So once I stopped working out and just ate for weeks, I started to see size in my arms and I look bigger overall without losing any tone that I previously had. Now back to working out, lifting weights only and I’m still seeing good changes. Good video.
That sounds crazy, your body works weird.
@@cipherP9 I know
exact same thing happened to me lol. During end of school season I started working out, barely made any gains over 2 months (obviously because I was eating maybe 1.5K - 2K calories a day lol) and couldn't even bench 95 lbs. Then summer hit, I went back to visit my family in my home country. My grandparents fed me high caloric foods everyday like rice, goat meat and condensed milk. I gained some pounds, hit the gym first day back late august, and then I easily crushed 95 lbs bench and hit a new PR of 115 lbs shortly after.
@@Caaro99 Bro, after I ate and went back to the gym I crushed 135lbs on the bench like it was nothing, I was like throwing the weight up and down. I’m around 220-235 on the bench now, but it’s weird how our bodies work.

incredible brother. needed this motivation
Finally a good, short, easy, straight forward guide from someone who used to be where i've been all my life. There are thousands of videos/guides out there for losing weight but so few of gaining for really skinny people. People who can put on fat/weight by "just staring at food" makes me jealous, and when i tell them that i can (and do) eat pizzas, hamburgers, tacos, chips, fried chicken etc.. all week long every day and mabye lose 1-2 pounds and they get jealous of me i almost get really mad at them. They don't realise that i Want to gain weight from it, that's why I'm eating it, not to boast about never gaining a pound for my effort. I as well have so little appatite, can barely finish a pizza by myself even if i've not eaten in 6-7 hours even though i've been active. I'm 24 years old, and I still weigh the same as when i was 14. I way between 55-58kgs, i just go back and forth, never more never less. I don't like eating big portions so i will try more protein shakes/smoothies. Anyways thanks for this vid man.
Yeah ill try this too. I love that the video is so straight forward.
I live in cuba, i cant eat any food that contains gluten, nevertheless, i try to achieve every day the 6 meals per day plan, and i go to the gym 3 days a week, mondays wednesdays and fridays , and honestly I've gained some weight, in this moment I weight 64kg , but food in this country doesn't help me, if I were you I'd try with some protein shakes , it would be quickly and easier, greets!
@@DutchGeneral me to, i gained from 58.5KG to 68KG in 4 months
We’re really similar man…i weight 59 to 60kg and I’m 22. I hope I can add some weight soon…if you try any of these and it works…do let us know
@@melihordu5189 how wow?
fast metabolism same here, always used to struggled with eating more and never thought I could but 3 months ago or so I started for real taking it seriously and tracking my cals, did around 3k a day and since then I'm up from 125 ish to about 155 which feels great. When I first started I bought this mass gainer called transparent labs pretty pricey but it's all good ingredients and even has creatine in it so I don't need to take any separately, I used to need to drink the shake at night which helped me out with about 900 cals to help me reach my daily goal but since about a month ago I've actually been needing it less and less and am just getting better at eating enough actual food to reach the goal. still drink it every so often though for the protein and creatine. my advice is just start tracking your stuff and take it day by day, make it your goal to reach that cals per day and focus on hitting it no matter what keep it up stay consistent and you will see change. also buy a scale lol weigh yourself every morning
1:40 exactly this right here (remove the ice cream though lol, use myfintnesspall and keep watch of your protein/sugar/sodium/cholesterol, etc. don't go above id say 100g a day of sugar and that's honestly pushing it, just because you want to gain weight doesn't mean you should be sacrificing your health because of it, there's 2 sides from looking healthy and being healthy
3:11 honestly a good tactic I hadn't known or thought of, and the opposite id assume goes for bigger people trying to lose weight.
As a skinny guy myself, the 5 minutes timer is very useful indeed. Sometime it took me 45 mins to finish my meal. Which is suck
total bs, the faster you eat, the less you chew, the less it gets digested and do not get add up to the body.
To bulk fast, start chewing your food till it becomes a paste. (Do not worry about time)
@@gauravkumarrana6870 it is not about how fast the body can digest the food, it more on appetite side of thing. I feel like i need to force myself to finish a meal which doesn't feel good at all. Plus, the slower i eat, the lesser the time for my body to get ready for next meal. Example if i eat my 2nd meal at 10am and the next meal is at 12pm, if i eat slower means i finish my 2nd meal at 1045, then my body only has 1hr15mins to digest the food and i still feel full at that point.
ua-cam.com/video/mjWIvWXl3Lc/v-deo.html
@@aki_gunting4644 I have similar issue man, I find putting on a really intriguing YT vid or TV series helps me distract myself from the fact I’m eating and so even though I take about 30mins to finish eating I just keep eating for the whole time and this helps me more than the 5 mins thing. If that doesn’t work for you maybe give this ago?
@@gauravkumarrana6870 the less you chew doesn't actually translate to the less you digest. You will digest the food even if you just swallow it as a whole. The calories of the food doesn't magically disappear breaking the laws of thermodynamics. Worst case scenario is you will have diarrhoea. But you don't need to sit there and chew for 30 minutes just for it to "digest". Plus people with less hunger tend to eat less because they take forever to eat a meal(like me lol). I know this because I study about this.

It also kinda feels illegal tho' like how much truth it has in it
As a 44-year-old I can tell you can get away with more / bad diet when you are young. I ate really bad and was always active and never was overweight or obese. Today in my 40s even eating a lot better I was having blood sugar issues as a result of eating poorly in my 20s and 30s. So as I agree you need to eat more to gain more muscle, it comes at a cost. Large meals shoot your blood sugar and causes a yo yo effect with your blood sugar.
I would probably say learn to eat well, make more caloric healthy soups (using healthier fats such as cashews), and smoothies in addition to all the other healthy foods you eat. I think the workout advice is good here. For younger folks, you cannot out work a poor diet. Thin people get type 2 diabetes and heart attacks. Be smart please with your diet, you don't need crazy experimental supplements. Also, a lot of the standard brand protein powders have heavy metals in it. Try to stick to whole foods. There is some good advice here, though. I get the struggle so many have with trying to put on pounds.
Thanks!
bulk like a sumo wrestler, not a mcdonalds junkie
@@Arrradiance Absolutely true. Calories are not all made equal!
Agree with this. For any young people watching this video (which is mostly good advice), please be careful with long term consumption of bad foods to get your weight up - this is not sustainable and you will end up with health problems later in life.
Yes, finally... an intelligent comment. Also, dont forget about insulin resistance, metabolic disorders, tumors, cancer, etc. This type of diet kills people.

I'm 20 years old and i've been struggling to gain weight my whole life because of my bad apitite and fast metabolism, I was always the skinny guy and I still am. I just started my first bulk on my birthday which was 11 oktober. This time was different than any other time i tried. It's people like you that give me that strength to give it 1 more shot and give everything I have got, I found out that liquid calories + nuts/granola are the LITERAL cheat code to bulking. I've worked really hard everyday. Went from 56.5 to 64.4 by the time writing this.(29 Nov) I just want to say thank you @Joe Fazer, for letting me believe in myself 1 more time, and changing my life for the better.
How's it going now bro? How much much weight did you gain
@ thanks for your reaction, took a break around August with a weight of 70.0KG! My goal was accomplished, since at the start of the year I wanted to get on the plane to my holliday with 70kg. Now im going strong at 72Kg with very minimal weight gain at the moment. Ive reached the goal I wanted and looking back its really just eating a hole damn lot. Right now, I am just maintaining my body and not really pushing my limits anymore.
Thanks for your reaction!
@ But it was a whole jouney my friend, went from 56.5 KG to 64,5, got hospitalized for a really bad lung infection which lasted 2 weeks. I lost almost 8kg and went back to 57KG.
This gave me so much drive to work that i pushed through and made it back and even further…70KG. I could only imagine that back a few years ago. And that just shows that with the right minset and dedication you can do it.
I’m currently 16, about to be 17. I’m a junior in high school and I currently weigh 127.6. I’ve been picked on a lot just for being skinny and I’m completely new to working out in general.

I want to point not only “at least 8hours of sleep” is important, BUT to stick to a regular sleeping routine at night. 8 hours of night-sleep always beats out 10 hours of day-sleep due to how our body clock works.

Exactly. People be getting 6hrs during the week, and then when they wake up exhausted during 12hrs on Saturday they wonder why
Rip to me having to work 16 hours a day 😂

Was on my calorie goal every day for a good 2 months. Got tired of feeling nauseous all the time when eating lots and lost motivation. Gonna try again with some new tricks from here wish me luck
gl and hf !!
nah fr this is the worst part. when i first started i immediately jumped to 3k-3.3k calories everyday. at the beginning i would always wake up in the middle of the night feeling insanely nauseous then always debating whether its worth it or not. eventually gained 15 pounds. biggest weight gain ive had in years. gonna try and start up again as well. good luck on your journey my friend we'll see how we're doing within the year
You should gradually increase calories, not instantly a lot, so your body will get used to it gradually

Nice to hear someone that knows what he’s talking about. I was extremely skinny in my early 20’s and had to take this approach, but you’ll find as you get older you’ll go the opposite way. I’m now in my 40’s and my metabolism has slowed way down. You’ll find you need to eat healthier instead of eating as much as you can of the junky foods.. Also wouldn’t recommend constant heavy weights years on end trying to bulk. You’ll feel,it on your joints when you get older trust me there. Mix it up with resistance bands. Great video anyway!
I agree with all of this. I started lifting at 6’1” and 115lbs. I’m now 6’3” 185
I’m 35 now but gained the first 40 - 50 pounds in about 3 years during high school and college.
Working out increases your height??
Lol. No But HGH could. But seriously, I put in the height change because Not all the weight gained was solely lifting- I was also finishing growing.

Duuuude thank you so much for such a straightforward content. This is by far the most realistic explanation of how my life is currently at. My BW is 53kg and i have been in the gym for only 7 months, before i started the gym i was at 46-48 kg going up and down.
I had struggled with food but i tried different ways to get them down my throat such as changing the place of where i eat or even the light in the room and even the plate's style, colour and drawings if it had any.
I recommend even having to eat at large plates, for example a ration of meal to plate normally around 50 to 80%, i tried to change that to 30-80%, which means the plate is 50% bigger than the meal itself.
I hope i helped somebody out there and thank you for such content once again.

I'm 20 and my weight is 46,8
I weighed around 115 at the start. I didn't know what I was doing for a long time so as I tried gaining with but had no appetite or motivation, I only gained about 2lbs for at least 3-4 months. But, I decided to put the work in and eat a lot more. I made sure to eat every opportunity I had. If I wasn't full, I would eat until I was. You gotta learn to love the feeling of being FULL. Like, STUFFED full. My appetite naturally began to pick up tremendously once I did this. I started eating a lot of food, even keeping up with one of the heavy eaters in my family and after Thanksgiving, made it to 120. This made my motivation so much stronger. This month, I've gone extremely hard on my eating and working out and now I weigh 125. Its not much to someone much bigger, but for me, finally seeing those numbers go up faster and faster is a blessing. I've so far gained 5lbs in a month, which is my fastest weight gain ever. People have noticed a dramatic weight gain compared to how I used to be and its not slowing down anytime soon.
Just keep eating and working out. Its so worth it just for the joy alone of feeling bigger and better than you were before. I nearly cried just hitting 120, which sounds underweight to me, but I spent my teenage years not even at 100lbs. You can make it!
Hi Joe, im a german skinny guy who more or less consistently watches your videos since almost the beginning of your training journey.

with only rest on sundays, but working out 3 hours a day everyday.
is it okay?
IM A 16 YEAR OLD BEGINNER BTW
@@itsdharun imo 3 hours is too long
@@itsdharun you should have at least 48 hours between workouts if your working the same muscles each time
Cmon boys we got this and ladies too, get your gains up
(Currently 55kg, will come back in a month to update)
Splendid video, straight to the point, very well explained without unnecessary topics. Thank you.
As a person who's always struggled to get decent sleep and gain weight, Joe's overall advice about working out and diet is super helpful. Cuts the crap and gets to the point. Within 4 months I went from 59kg to 70kg, this includes a fair bit of cardio twice a week at football practise whilst keeping on top of eating (most days). Big up lad! 😀
Did you. Feel Like a struggle to eat 😮?
@@JBittermusic 100% at times yeah. The more work you put your body through, the more it needs to fuel up on protein intake. Give your body a reason to be hungry.
How can you survive the football field with that weight
I love how even through all these hard times of trying to gain weight and failing your still positive I really needed this to gain weight for football next season thanks Joe
Hey man, I’m doing the exact same thing for football and I’m already seeing my weight go up around 1.5 lbs a week

2:48 is such a game changer, i always had a problem eating super slow when watching things or being distracted but this helped me eat a lot more a lot quicker and not feel as full so fast. Goated video
I started the gym around 5 months ago and have gained around 10kg (I’ve gone from 68kg to about 78.5kg). The weight gainer shakes are so helpful and I find oats and nuts to be massively helpful too. I buy a flapjack for every day of the week(500 kcal per one). Peanuts are great (so many calories and easy to eat). I’m deffo gonna have to try out your shake tho mate 100%, looks yummy as well. I’ll take your advice on the muscle groups thing about the bro split because I have fallen into this trap once or twice aha. Thanks for the tips 💪
Hey man, just wondering what peanuts and oats do you buy... I'm just looking for new products to help gain muscle weight. (:
@@reee6946 I just buy regular cheap peanuts from Lidl or Aldi. The calories in them are insane, think the bag I bought was around 2000 calories for like £1. They obviously not the healthiest but to snack on and gain a few extra calories it’s perfect. And as for oats I just buy flapjacks. They are pretty big, and think you can buy them in bulk on eBay. Can’t remember the brand name tho dude
@@reee6946 just checked the flapjacks name is “Higates”
dont mind me asking but what brand are these peanuts you buy from lidl/aldi?
@@pvp_mania5182 think they’re just the Lidl or Aldi brand, it’s like a big bag
This I call a guide.No nonsense, straight to the point . Thanks 🙏
Bro this is insane this is literally what I’ve been looking for, when I get big it’s thanks to you 🤝🏾

This video was a game changer for me, gained 2kgs in less than 2 weeks. I was sitting at ~62kgs now 64.5. Thanks ❤
75 is idel
@@dhruvildesai816 yup im trying to get to that
it is funny when person can't realize without video tutorial on youtube that eating more means gaining more
@@profiyntroz5186 did you even watch the video
Im 1.73-1.74 cm and I started with 57kg. Not insanely skinny, in fact around normal BMI still, but I know my goal is 68-69kg.
So this guy is helping out a ton
I went from 45Kgs to 65Kgs in a year than went back to 50Kgs because of college routine, then started my journey again and went from 54Kgs to 61 Kgs in 3 months.
I implement everything you mentioned except I don't drink liquid calories because I want to make eating big meals a habit and I also don't take any supplements
Well you know, muscle memories
@@hazboy28 what is muscle memories.. sorry im new to all of this
@@Guardian08 i dont know about the theory, but its something like ur muscle remember how much they've grown, so if u start lifting again it'll grow faster than ur first time
@@Guardian08 muscle is always harder to gain the first time around. If you lose it it will take a tremendously less time compared to the first time. Though its still a bit of a hassle to get it back it takes alot less time
@@hazboy28 exactly right. Watch this guys video on his friends 60 day transformation to see this in action
i struggle with IBD which made me incontinent for 5 years, as you can guess this made me extremley skinny at one point i was 20 klios bellow average wheight. this has helped so much so genuinely thank you.
Dude, I appreciate this video so much. Because I think the problem with a lot of skinny guys is trying to be lean from the start... like you said, just get those damn calories in, build up the body and then when you're feeling a lot bigger, you can go more lean and focus on the 'perfect' diet. Also, great tips in general - you cut the crap and just got straight to point. Cheers mate.
This is a amazing - short and to the point. Easily the most comprehensive quick guide for this problem. Thanks for sharing mate!
can confirm that this is very well put. Ive been bulking and doing my research on my side and came up to all the same conclusions as he did. dont give up my skinny bros
the best no BS guide tbh
Ive been lifting for over a year and u have really helped me and focuses on problems that I face that I thought no one else has, thanks man ur a legend
Stepping into to the gym for the first time tomorrow. I’m 124lbs right now and I hope to look back on this video when I’ve reached my goal of 150lbs.
Wish me luck!
Did you hit it bro?
This video was actually really useful I remember watching your transformation and you were the only person was has actually been similar to myself. I’m 6’6 weighing just under 11 stone. Started doing push-ups at hone for a month, 100 a day and saw small improvements but could never get it spot on. This video has really helped me and I’m actually for one looking forward too trying out everything you said. Thank you
bro people have no idea how hard it is for a skinny kid

I'm Asian and I eat rice everyday💀. Still skinny
Same bruh
Damn.same😢
Switch to pasta

@@Namo_bhaktasame. Still skinny
Thank you, joe! I lost weight because I had a tuberculosis and I am so skinny now, I am motivated and I will start doing your tips as soon as I am fully recovered! :) All the best for your channel!
Progressive overload can be done in multiple ways, not just putting more weight on bar. Eg, less rest time or added reps. If you can’t put more on bar these are a great alternative 💪🏼
For sure, and rep cadence and bar control as well.
There is a point of diminishing returns with adding reps though. For example, if you're using the same 10 pound dumbbell since you started working out 3 years ago and doing sets of 50 for bicep curls, you're pretty much wasting your time.
@@leviathan3630 pretty sure hes saying if the next dumbbell up is 10lbs and you need maybe just +3lbs, do a few more reps and then upgrade +10lbs, not use the same weight for a year and add reps…
I’m speechless, this was SO helpful, this legit helped me with everything i need because he literally described my flaws and how to fix them as a skinny guy
your videos are incredibly helpful, I've gone from 100lbs (45kg) to 135lbs (61kg) in about 6 months and strength gone through the roof. Thanks bro
good job 👏

A genuinely beautifully compact and informative video, this is fantastic. On behalf of all skinny men and women I personally want thank you joe for making this for us.
i’m literally two minutes in and this is already insanely helpful
193cm/6foot4 and I weigh 70kg, I’ll come back to this video in a year to see where I’ve gotten, truly great information
IsThAt ReAL?
That timed eating trick is so efficient when training your body to eat more. Ever since I started working carpentry, they would only give us a 15 minute break for 8 hours of work. Ever since then I’ve started eating WAY more then k used to
Finally a dude that addresses the appetite issue with real tips, and goes to the point concisely while making it the most of his video. I'm gonna give it a try because i still can't get more than 2 meals a day for years now and still skinny. Plus i do BJJ and plan to compete.
I'm adding a 5x5 workout to prepare for competition in october and i'd like to get 5kg of extra muscle and see my shoulders and arms grow. Will start implementing these strategies tomorrow.
Thanks for that video mate
You Gotta wake up early and to start eating early so your able to eat more throughout the day
@@Dm-gq3sy waking up early = going to bed early
you will still have the same amount of time to eat
Eat peanut butter that shit has so much calories and nutritional value
Just spread it out through the day
Btw i'd like to add that the timer thing works like a charm. I will have to postpone the gains atm, i need to cut weight for a competition (1kg so should be easy lol )
Finally a actual vedio with everything
This shake is something I need to add into my diet. I've been trying to eat 7 eggs in the morning and 4 potatoes at night with protein shakes in milk to drink on top of an extra 1000 calories I have to eat during the day. Drinking the shakes are mega easy, but it's so difficult to get through the breakfast and dinner meals. A 1000 calorie shake is so easy to get down, and I can just carry it with me.
I’ve ate too many eggs doing something like you and now I can’t eat them without being sick 😂
Ez on the eggs buddy , too much of anything can be dangerous
@@ohboi5908 yeah true
Eggs has a bunch of cholesterol so I recommend you eat 1 per day or it could impact you in the future. But hey that’s on you man hope for the best
I don't recoomend eating more than 6-10 eggs a week because eggs are very high in cholesterol
This is actually a really good quality video! I'm skinny but been going to the gym long enough to know all these tips but everything here is so accurate, especially the tips about how to eat more. Forcing myself to eat quickly is something I discovered recently and helps me finish my meals.
Thank you Joe. This was the most straight-to-the-point video on weight gaining I’ve seen thus far.
Definitely going to be adding these tips to my routine! Cheers!
I loved it because u could feel that all that tips were real on your journey
You named all the situations I go through as a skinny guy so thank you for helping me out and will definitely be pushing harder then ever
Thank God you made this video! I'm 26 and I've never been over 125 and this was exactly what I needed
I'm 12 and starting bodybuilding. I'm quite skinny. I have plant protein 1 scoop (36 grams) and I weigh about 36-38Kg. The calorie meals I've needed the most. Thankyou king!
Most guys don´t even think about going to the gym and improving themselves at that age. I certainly wasn´t. Good job young man. Keep going👊
my g, enjoy your youth. Its normal to be skinny when you're 12, the best time to start gymming is prob around 15-16 and even then you shouldn't overdo it or it could affect your natural height growth.
I’m 19 with a low appetite and very high metabolism and have a hard time gaining weight but this video actually helps me out thank you.
Thanks for this video. I am built much like you were, a walking stick at 125lb 5ft 9 and at 32 yrs old and I'm tired of feeling inadequate. This summer I'm committed to changing it and your story is very inspirational for me man.

I’m pretty embarrassed to say this, but I’m like 5’5 -5’6 and I’m just barely at a 100 pounds. I’ve never worked out, and I’m trying to get a lot of muscle, so that I’m not so insecure anymore, do you recommend any foods I should eat with a lot of protein, and workouts I should do at home with not much equipment, I would really appreciate bro, and congrats to you, on your workout too!
Honestly this session seems like the one i could enjoy the most i literaly tought about making my gym life like that but now u verifyed its a good way so thx
The amount of information condensed in this short quick video is unbelievable and amazing. It all makes sense for the Hard Gainer. Thank you. 👍

thanks man, im boutta get started
Now that I think about it the 5 minute meal was something that was working really well for me & I need to get back into it. I was studying like 9 hours a day before so my meals had to be eaten quickly + I was sitting a lot. 4-5 meals a day (each about 500 calories) allowed me to gain 10lbs in 10 weeks.
This is an amazing video I’ve been bulking for not even 2 months now and I’ve gone from 108lbs to 118lbs
I`m a super skinny guy, and its very hard for me to gain weight even though my appetite is pretty high. Just started to go to the gym a month ago and do pull, push, leg workout program with 2 days rest a week. Looking at your body transformation motivate me to workout more. Hoping can have a body like you one day. Thanks for the guide!!!
Look into Calisthenics to bro
Keep at it. It will work. Eat sleep workout. You will get 10 pounds if newbie gains for sure.
Go check out revival fitness. He’s got a lot of good info
Every skinny guy who cant gain weight, says i have a large appetite.. but no you dont, if your working out till failure atleast 3 or 4 times per week and you aren't gaining , then you arent eating enough, and doubtfully working out to failure...
Ive found that all my clients who say they "eat loads" etc actually eat 3 meals a day plus a protein shake and maybe a little fruit . When i say at least double it , they think im joking. As the kid in this explained force food and water in
You still going?
the protein shake helped my son soooooo much. he was getting teased at school but my gosh now look at him.
Thanks heaps bro, I’m a boxer currently at 61 kg looking to gain some muscle and go up a couple weight classes and this video has helped massively, not only pointing out the obvious stuff but giving little tips cos you know for some people it’s not as easy as just doing it.
