How to gain weight fast… In a country struggling to overcome obesity crisis, it may seem hard to believe that there are people who are actually looking for ways to gain weight.

Yet it is true, there are people who are having a hard time gaining weight, and they want to know not only how to gain weight fast, but how to gain weight and muscle.

I know what you are thinking. “I want to gain muscle mass, but I do not want to get fatâ€?. Flex magazine has an advice for you, “do yourself a favor – ditch the rabbit food and grab a steak. Foods with higher fat content can actually help keep your testosterone levels up and put you in the fast lane toward more mass.”

Well, have you been relying on “diet� foods while seeking to add muscle mass? To lose weight you need lean sources of protein, such as egg whites, skinless chicken and turkey breasts and fish. To curb your appetite, you also need vegetables since they are a good source of fiber.

But if you are trying to gain weight by building muscle, keeping your body fat at very low levels could compromise your efforts to add any significant amount of muscle mass.

“Why? Testosterone. Eating minimal fat (as from the aforementioned lean protein choices) can cause a drop in testosterone levels. Surprisingly, high-fiber veggies can actually interfere with testosterone metabolism as well, which leads to “so-so� rather than “wow!� gains.

Ditch the diet proteins for lean beef and whole eggs mixed with egg whites (eat half whole eggs and half egg whites – if you eat six eggs at breakfast, toss out three of the yolks)�, says Flex.
