If I work out on a tread mill (only) for two hours a day, and i go swimming about twice a week, how long would it take me to build muscles? Also, what is the fastest and easiest wayy to gain 20 pounds? how long would that take??
whoa whoa….whoa
Cardio (treadmill, swimming) won’t help you reach your particular goal of gaining muscle.
The basic concept: To get big, you need to eat big and lift weights. Eating big means to get in more calories than you burn.
Doing all that cardio, especially at 2 hours a day, will burn up the calories…leaving you with nothing to build muscle.
I’m sorry to say that you have this very wrong. Go onto http://www.teenbodybuilding.com to look up on some ‘bulking’ articles
it would not take long depending on you it all depends on your age, weight, staminna that seems a little extreme to be doing everyday you have to give your body a break get back to me with those details and ill help you out if i can
It’s a process. Slowly work on increasing your work outs and weight training. As you train your body, it will respond and you will be able to develop muscle mass. If you push too hard and too fast, you will only not get results, you will "crash" and will have flu-like symptoms.
