Eating for Mass: An Ectomorph Hardgainer's Guide to Gaining 20lbs of Lean Mass in a Month

Let me be clear upfront: this book is for super skinny guys only. Guys who despite having tried over and over are lucky to hit 140lbs. If that’s not you, this book is NOT for you. If that is you - keep reading.

I’d always been skinny. I didn't break 100 pounds until sophomore year of high school. In 7th grade, I had to stuff my jock with water balloons and sand to make weight for football.

I made countless attempts at putting on muscle. No matter what I tried, nothing worked. I seemed destined to never weigh more than 135 pounds. You can probably relate...

Then, I gained 26lbs of lean mass in 4 weeks.

This book is how I did it. Inside, you'll find:

- How to painlessly eat 5000+ calories a day (Pages 43, 49)
- The reason you aren't gaining weight, even if you're eating enough and lifting heavy (page 62)
- How to naturally increase your testosterone for maximum growth (Page 68)
- The complete, detailed food log from my 28 day bulk (Page 80) and recipes for high calorie, non-"junk" meals (Pages 38, 96)
- How to overcome "I'm full syndrome" so you can consistently eat huge meals (Page 28)
- Why high-repetition heavy squats are your ticket to huge gains (Page 23)
- The old-school, cheap-as-dirt supplement that is ideal for post-workout recovery and growth (Page 52)

At the heart of getting big is eating a LOT, which is hard. This book covers what to eat, how to eat, and when to eat it to make getting big easy. It also shows you how to optimize your hormones, sleep, blood, and inflammation for fastest gains.

The prescription in this book is not fun. In fact, it sucks. But for skinny guys who can’t gain weight no matter what they do, it works.

Praise for Eating for Mass

"I have been working with collision sports guys for years. Building Mass is central to their success, so I came up with a six week program, Mass Made Simple. It's a bit of upper body work, some combination lifts, and then high repetition squats. For nutritional advice, I tell them two things: Eat Like an Adult and, basically, eat everything in sight.

Few understand what I mean. I mean "a lot." Finally, someone understands this. Connor "explains the obvious:" eat, sleep, eat. Force feed yourself. Pour oil on pizza. Chug down protein shakes. Connor's work is the missing link. And, I have to say it again: gaining mass is one of the hardest things to do as the shoveling in the volume of food is much harder than most people think. Connor simplifies the process and the thinking behind the food aspect of gaining mass. It is complete, insightful and a "must have" for the mass building client and athlete.”
