The Skinny Guy’s Guide to Nutrition Basics for Weight Gain

One of the most common mistakes I see among very thin men trying to gain weight is attempting to optimize everything before mastering the basics.

You don’t need a perfect nutrition plan.

You don’t need expensive supplements.

You don’t need to count every single gram of food.

• Calories

• Protein

• Carbohydrates and healthy fats

Once you’ve mastered these basics, everything else becomes much simpler.

I’ve written a new article on this very topic specifically for "hardgainers" who are just starting out explaining the fundamentals of nutrition.
