From Underweight to Bulking Phase
Newo92, a 21-year-old male, had a weight of 167lbs, well below the healthy range for his height of 6'2. After years of struggling with being underweight, he decided to take action and bulk up healthily through proper diet and exercise.
Finding the Right Balance
Newo92 started by setting a goal to gain 1-2 lbs per week, which he knew was a healthy and sustainable rate of gain. He focused on eating a balanced diet that included plenty of protein, carbohydrates, and healthy fats. He monitored his calorie intake, making sure he was consuming more than he was burning through exercise.
Sticking to Routine and Planning Ahead
In addition to his diet, Newo92 found success in sticking to a regular workout routine. He focused on compound exercises, such as squats, deadlifts, and bench press, which helped in building muscle mass. He also planned ahead for his meals and workout schedule, making it easier to stick to his goals.
The Results and the Importance of Progress Pictures
Through his hard work and dedication, Newo92 achieved his goal weight of 195-200lbs. Along the way, he found it helpful to take progress pictures, which allowed him to see the changes in his body and stay motivated. He urges others to try things out for themselves and find what works for their own body and lifestyle.
Final Thoughts: Building a Healthy Body
Newo92's weight gain journey is a great example of how, with the right mindset, diet, and exercise, anyone can achieve a healthy body they are proud of.
