Hardgainer Mass Building Secret
Are you a “hardgainer”?
You know…someone who is reeeeeally skinny and has a hard time putting on muscle mass?
There’s no doubt that “hardgainers” have the odds stacked against them.
And one of the big problems they have is that the don’t have a hormone system that processes the “testosterone chain” as efficiently as other guys.
Sucks, doesn’t it?!
But here’s a little trick you can try that is guaranteed to kickstart some new gains…
For ONE WEEK, before each of your workouts (no matter which body part you’re targeting)…
…do 3 SETS of high volume SQUATS!
I know, I know…you hate doing squats, right?
But especially for scrawny hardgainers (yeah…you women too!), squats are the “King” of all mass building exercises because they use more total muscle fibers than any other exercise.
Here’s why this works…
By STARTING your workout with 3 sets of squats (shoot for high reps…like 15–20), you jumpstart your endocrine system to kick up the production of anabolic hormones like testosterone.
Plus…using a higher volume rather than lower, you ALSO stimulate the release of more human growth hormone that stimulates muscle growth.
Do this 3 TIMES a week and THEN move on to the rest of your workout (such as your chest, shoulders, etc.)
The flood of healthy, mass-building hormones will benefit your entire body and slather your scrawny frame with layers of muscle in no time!

I am a so called hard gainer, and it is the opposite of lack of anyhting. Keep the facts straight.
There was a terrific old routine from Strength and Health Mag years ago.
You did 3 sets of low rep heavy benches with deep breathing on each of the reps alternate with 3 sets of low rep heavy squats breathing slow and deep again. Then heavy rows, presses, & curls only. Then you drink a big old protein drink. You gained muscle like crazy.Even little guys bulked up.
