Background

Reddit user Dunkindude shared his 20lb weight gain journey over two months, detailing his simple method of only exercising and eating relatively healthy without counting calories or protein intake.

Method

Dunkindude's method for gaining weight consisted of consuming an average of 2000-3500 calories a day with a preference for relatively healthy food items containing protein. He also followed a workout routine consisting of compound exercises like squat, barbell row, and bench press, along with three days of accessories.

Results

The user was thrilled with the results, gaining 20 pounds in only two months. Many commenters were impressed with the progress and asked for tips on how to follow Dunkindude's method. Some users suggested variations like pointing toes outward while exercising to prevent injury.

Conclusion

Dunkindude's simple and effective method is based on the principle of consuming more calories than you burn and incorporating compound exercises into your workout routine. However, it is important to note that every body is different, and what works for one person may not work for another. It is always best to consult with a healthcare professional before starting any exercise or diet routine.

Takeaway

If you're looking to gain weight, it doesn't have to be an overly complicated or expensive process. Dunkindude's journey proves that simple changes to your diet and exercise routine can yield significant results. Try out some of his methods for yourself, and see what works best for your body.
