    Unless you have the genetics to look (a bit) like Taylor Lautner, I wouldn't count on it.


    eat: The every three hours thing has been proven unnecessary. Take a look at leangains.com. As far as the rest of it is concerned - whatever works for you, specifically. You won't know until you experiment.

    I look like this

    But isent there something like. You have to eat carbs with protein, if not the body will turn the proteins into energy instead of using it to rebuild muscles?

    Not true at all. Neither is having to eat every three hours to keep your metabolism up.

    OP: set yourself some realistic expectations re progress.

    Taylor was a young puppy in the first pic - he had not stopped growing.

    Also, when in their teens and early 20s, guys have loads of testosterone.

    Combine that with being new to training - they can gain muscle relatively easily - and even gain it on a deficit (although not easily). However, another part is genetics (as well as your training and diet).

    Taylor Lautner got his body by feasting on human flesh by the light of the full moon. That is really the key to muscle building success.

    Good luck.

    bodybuilding . com might be a good place to start otherwise I wouldn't worry so much about eating so often if you want to gain muscle. If you want to gain, you need to eat more nutrient dense foods, lean proteins, and supplement. Oh and don't forget to work out HARD with the weights. Low reps, high resistance. You'll probably need to spend a few hours in the gym each day to accomplish your Taylor Lautner look anytime soon. Don't forget that he most likely has a personal trainer and schedule that allows him to train several hours a day. Do you have that sort of time and $$?
