Female Muscle Gain

How much muscle tissue can a Woman expect to gain in a month, with the right workout plan and diet?

Looking to tack on 5-8 pounds on stomach and bum. Maybe crack a walnut open with my buttcheeks...

(giggles) That's awesome!

I think the expected weight gain is something like 1/2 pound a week of solid muscle, assuming you are doing a lot of weight training (i.e. 3-4 times per week). DO NOT DO MORE THAN THIS, or you sick serious injury and over-training. Believe me, I did that when I first started rock climbing and I paid for it (I had to sit out for a few weeks to let my muscles and tendons heal).


But yeah, I would say over 16 weeks, you will gain 8 lbs easy.
