How come some people just dont seem to build muscle when weight lifting?
I see many skinny guys who weight lift in foot ball for 1 year, and they say they cant build muscle
I seen some guys who weight lift alot but still really skinny why?
I mean if they can lift more, there had to be some muscle up grade why? What does their muscle do then?

They undereat.. if they lift more that doesn’t necessary means they got bigger muscles, they just got a bit stronger and strength is more related with central nervous system and impulses..
Just make sure you are eating 500 cals more then your maintenance level is and you wont have to worry about similar things 😉

In regard to lifting weights: To gain muscle mass, one must do a high amount of weight with a low amount of repetitions. This helps in building muscle, while doing a high amount of repetitions with low weight tones the body and makes you “cut.” For example; instead of doing 12 reps of 50 pounds, try doing 4-6 reps of 80 or 90 pounds. Start the set with 60% of your max, and by the end of the set (do around 2-4 sets, 3 is a good amount), you should be doing 80-90% of your maximum.
Also, a person needs to eat a lot. Seems simple, right? It’s not as easy as it looks. Many skinny people have quick metabolisms. To counter this, one must eat more than what he regularly consumes to change his metabolism. If you take 1500 calories a day, try taking 1800 or more. Make sure you are eating healthy too; simply eating fatty foods just to gain weight will do you no good. Consume a lot of protein such as meat, eggs and beans (supplements such as whey protein can help out in this; however be wary of creatine and other stronger supplements as they might be harmful to you) but be sure to get a good mix of fruits, vegetables and dairy too.
