How to Get Huge – Pick Up an Olympic Weight Set

So you want to know how to get huge?  The short answer is that you need an Olympic weight set.  If you workout at a gym, you’re already set.  If not, you need to buy one for your home gym.  Without further delay, here it is, the fastest way to get huge:

Whether you’re working out at home or the gym, you need to have a barbell and some heavy-ass weights.  Once you’ve got a barbell, you need to focus on the big movements that build muscle the fastest, like the squat, deadlift, and overhead press.  Another piece of equipment you’ll need are some adjustable dumbbells.  Get ones that have weights you can slide off and on the handles, or the select-tech style ones if you’re a baller and can afford them.

Once you’ve got the tools to get huge, you need to find some good routines.  I recommend Huge in a Hurry by Chad Waterbury.  He goes over all the details and puts together a ton of great workout routines.  He also has a lot of good diet advice, which leads me to the next thing you need to do to get huge fast.

Anyone that knows how to get huge knows that you need to eat well to get results.  There is a lot of B.S. floating around about macronutrient ratios, carb timing, and all of that.  There’s a little bit of truth to most of these ideas, but the MOST IMPORTANT thing to know is that calories are king.  You can get huge eating pizzas and protein shakes for 5 meals a day.  You might not be the healthiest dude on the block, but you can get huge with that.  Why? Because you’ll be eating a lot of calories.

Don’t go hog-wild with calories though.  Around 500 calories over your maintenance level is good enough for solid gains.  Anything over that and you’re going to be gaining a lot of lard.  Waterbury’s book has more detail on this stuff.

The last thing you can do to help yourself get huge fast is pick up a few supplements.  Just about anything besides protein shakes and recovery shakes (which have protein in them) is a waste of money.  Muscle Milk is great for an anytime shake, and Progenex makes some of the best recovery shakes (they have hydrolyzed whey, which absorbs into your bloodstream faster than any other type of whey).

With a solid diet, an Olympic weight set, and a few key supplements, you can get huge faster than you thought possible.
