			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.fourhourworkweek.com/blog/about/" target="_blank">Tim Ferriss</a> has another motivating post about how to gain a <a href="http://www.fourhourworkweek.com/blog/2007/04/29/from-geek-to-freak-how-i-gained-34-lbs-of-muscle-in-4-weeks/" target="_blank">massive amount of muscle in a short period of time</a>. It is almost too big a change to believe, but I&#8217;ll let you be the judge.</p>
<p>What&#8217;s the most weight (muscle or fat!) that you&#8217;ve gained in a single month?</p>
<p>For me: +10lbs. Back in 1998, after school let out for the summer, I had an internship in NYC. I went from running, swimming and biking a ton, to just lifting a ton (and eating a ton) and not doing much else. The weight came on pretty easily. After the first month, I gained about 2 pounds each of the remaining 2 months.</p>
<p>During my <a href="http://www.sethigherstandards.com/12-week-challenge/" target="_blank">12-week challenge last year</a>, I managed to gain +10lbs of lean muscle in 12 weeks.</p>
<p>Gaining 34lbs in 4 weeks is crazy.  Even 1/4 that gain would be tough.  The kicker is, Tim did it while training only 8 hours a week! I need to learn that technique.</p>
