  1. How Long Does It Take to Gain Weight?

  2. While some people find it difficult to shred some pounds, others constantly struggle to gain weight. The rate at which you put on weight depends on various factors like your age, sex, body size, calorie intake, health status, and activity level. So, there is no simple answer to this question. In case you are looking for ways to gain healthy muscle mass, you have to consider various factors.

  3. Reasons why people try to gain weight? • To enhance sports performance • To recover quickly after a serious sickness • To improve hormone levels and boost overall health after a prolonged period of maintaining a restrictive diet • Developing muscles for reaching a specific aesthetic or fitness goal • Restoring weight after undesired or unintentional weight loss

  4. What type of weight do you want to gain? Before finding out how quickly you can gain weight, it is important to know what type of weight you would like to gain. Weight gain could be of two types: muscle mass and body fat. Do you want to focus on selective body parts, or would you like to put on any kind of weight? Knowing the answers to this question will make it easy for you to make food choices. So, outlining your goals is a must before you embark on a weight gain journey.

  5. Factors that determine how fast your weight will increase • Genetics Some people have a natural tendency to put on weight irrespective of what they eat. It is because of their genes. Did you know that both skinniness and obesity run in families? So, if both your parents are slim, it might be challenging for you to plump up. In that case, you may visit a reputed dietician and he will prescribe some weight-gain supplements. The right supplements will aid you in your journey of becoming healthier. • Metabolic rate Metabolism is a biological process by which the body converts drink and food into energy. Even when you are resting, your body requires energy for performing vital functions such as breathing and circulating blood. Now if your metabolism is fast, your body quickly burns up the fat stored in your muscles.

  6. 3. Eating habits Your food habits play a crucial role in determining your body type. Do your meals comprise low-fat and low-carb dishes? Or do you prefer to eat heavy foods that are loaded with calories? A lot of people who put on a few kgs every month also consume large portions of fat and sugar. If you don’t feel hungry too often, you can increase your calorie intake by drinking beverages that are high in sugar and fat. 4. Parting Thoughts If you are eating a lot and yet there is still no weight gain, you should opt for a full-body diagnosis. You may also consult a certified dietician in Gurgaon to find out what has been lacking in your existing diet. Your dietician will tell you what all foods to consume daily to get positive results. 5. Insufficient sleep Do you sleep soundly at night, or do you wake up multiple times at night? Studies have proved that sleep deprivation can be a major cause of poor physique. So, make it a point to get 7 hours of undisturbed sleep at night to wake you looking plump. To track the quality of your sleep you can use a sleep tracker.
