• Answer:

  well because you are a beginner you will achieve faster gains in a couple of months, later it will stagnate a little. if you weight train intensely, eat well, and rest well you can probably gain up to 2 pounds of muscle per month. Usually hard gainers gaine about 10 pounds a year. You need to focus allot on the squat, bench, and dead lift. focus on intensity and poundage progression. if you are bench pressing 135 pounds for a good 10 reps, live to add another 5 or 10. also remember to use good form at all cost. i can give you 2 great resources. 1. go to this website and check his workouts scobyworkshop.com and i really recommend that you check this book called beyond brawn by stuart mcrobert. in fact i don't recommend any average beginner to lift a weight without reading this book. you can check it out on amazon like for 20 dollars.
