My husband is tall and very thin and is trying to put on wieght. He is one of those eat anything and gains nothing kind of people. I am sure the only way he will gain is by lifting wieghts and getting enough protien to build.
Here are my questions:
How much protein should he have?
whats a good protein powder to gain mass?
how many days should he lift a week?
should he do cardio?
he is defintly not fit but is a firefighter and its important that he gets in shape.
