How Should Skinny Guys Train To Build Muscle?

fitnesstips Oct 16, 2021

Allow me to clear up any confusion on this topic right now...⁣

There is no ONE best way that EVERY person should train.⁣

However...⁣

There are training methods that will be more beneficial than others, depending on factors like strength level, training experience, injury history, and recovery/diet.⁣

For skinny guys specifically, there are 3 styles of training that tend to work best...⁣

 

⁣1) Full Body Training⁣

Pros: Makes it easier to learn proper form on big compound lifts due to 3X per week practice. You’ll quickly increase strength over your entire body and only need to workout 3 times per week.⁣

Cons: It can be mentally challenging to want to work your legs 3X per week, and can get boring at times.⁣

2) Upper/Lower Split⁣

Pros: You’ll be able to focus on half of your body at a time, which can allow you push the intensity and volume over time quickly.⁣

Cons: It can be easy to over train your muscles accidentally, and negatively affect your recovery rate.⁣

⁣3) Push/Pull/Legs⁣

Pros: You’ll be able to work every muscle at least twice per week, which is the sweet spot for consistent growth in most muscles.⁣

Cons: You have to commit to training 6X per week. Missing days will throw off the rotation and effectiveness.⁣

Your best bet at getting long-term results is picking one style of working out and sticking with it for at least 3 months to get every once of results you can get, THEN switch to something else.⁣
