Being Skinny Can Be Just As Damaging To Your Self-Esteem As Being Fat - How To Fix It
Okay, okay.
So maybe there's a significant portion of America that's seriously overweight and needs to go on a crash diet.
And yes, those people have problems with feelings of self-worth.
But if you've been skinny all your life, you know that it has its own problems.
If you're a guy, looking like a stick doesn't make you feel very confident around women.
Getting teased for being bird chested, laughed at for being the 98 pound weakling...
it takes a toll on your self-image.
But there's a bigger problem.
Most skinny people - especially guys - have tried to gain weight at some point.
But when you can eat a tub of ice cream and lose two pounds, it's just not easy.
Most people who are thin as a result of genetics have tried multiple ways to gain weight.
They've tried workout plans that have all promised to build muscle.
All they want is a gain in body mass so they look good.
Unfortunately, they rarely get what the products promise.
There's a big reason for that.
If you're naturally skinny and you want to gain muscle, you should follow a blueprint created by someone who started off naturally skinny and then built his body into the shape and weight he wanted.
You need someone who's been where you are now, a person who can tell you the pitfalls and the things that don't work.
They understand the embarrassment and bad feelings that go along with being called a beanpole and having nothing work for you.
The difference is that they found the magic key that got them the results they want.
You can drink the powders, you can subscribe to the muscle magazines, but you're not going to get the results because your body has a special metabolism and a special genetic makeup that makes it difficult to gain body mass.
When it comes to success in this area, you need the advice of someone who has walked a mile in your shoes and succeeded.
