111 means equal amout of calories from protien carbs and fats

so say your diet is 4000 cals

that means 330 carbs, 330 protien and 146 fat per day

One of the easiest ways to put on weight fast is to drink a gallon of milk a day. That alone will give you an extra 2k calories and well over 100 grams of protein. If you can handle that combined with plenty of good food you're pretty much guaranteed to grow.

lean sources of protein, like tilapia fish, chicken
healthy fats like extra virgin olive oil, cashews, almonds macadamian nut oil, salmon or swordfish, and steroidal fats like the fat of the egg yolks

as far as carbs something like sweet potatoes, old fashion oats, brown rice eat like 1.5grams of protein per pound and the same grams of carbs as far as fats is basically half the grams

if u do one bicep curl a day with 2.67 pounds and eat 8 meals a day containing 600 calories and 60g of proetin each, u wont exactly get big either. Well actually u will, ull be a fatass.

Good, do it and follow it to the letter. Don't add any extra exercises or train any extra days. You should gain 10 lbs minimum off it if you drink the gallon of milk and take in enough food. I went from 195 to 205 when I did it last year.

ok... So a good bulking diet should look no different from a cutting diet besides switching out a few foods for the same TYPE of food perhaps, like beef instead of chicken.

-8 meals
-at least 4 or 5 meals should be whole foods with good solid proteins and carbs.
-a couple, maybe 2, should be shakes-also with high protein- including PWO shake and Casein protein before bed etc. Maybe one as a meal replacement at work/school as well.

Don't be scared to eat SOMEWHAT unhealthy from TIME TO TIME. Don't use "bulking" as an excuse to eat like crap. I read this quote somewhere on the forum for bulking... "It is better to eat bad than to miss a meal altogether". Don't abuse that rule. Do everything you can to eat healthy in large amounts but in your bulk, if you can't help it, eat a dirty meal as long as it's a meal (with meats and carbs, not just donuts or pastries and coffee, that won't help you regardless).

If you're looking for specific foods:
Chicken
Beef
Sweet potato
Oats
Milk
Protein Powders
Egg whites (maybe 3-5/d yolks during bulk)
Fish (Tilapia)
Tuna

In all honesty, those foods make up 85% of my diet, including water of course. The other 15% account for random times ie. Friends houses, out to eat, special occasion dinners etc.

-I just wanted to get you some straight forward information as this thread has gotten a little off topic and less helpful.

NPRamirez
12-30-08, 11:25 pm
Also, speaking of cleaning and preparation, check out my forum called "Egg Cooker (recommended by The House). It talks about some little, somewhat inexpensive appliances that make cooking bodybuilding meals very easy.

Carpe Diem P.T

are you kidding?

cooking in bulk and putting it in plastic containers. washing out fry pans, rice cookers, mixing bowls. wiping down chopping boards.

then theres the shopping. then theres the eating its self.

my girl was reading over my shoulder when i opened this, her expression reads

"yip... if u pick up another ciggy i swear to god and ronnie coleman, i'll break ur neck myself" she's a huge coleman fan ...

so i guess smoking is out of the question from here on out...

it truly depends on you. i was 165 at one point and i bulked to 180 on 3000 cal a day. it took me about 6 weeks but i was SOLID at 180. if you want it faster, while remaining solid and lean, i say eat about 4500 cal a day of CLEAN calories. sweet potatoes, oats, tuna, turkey, etc.

this is information we all KNOW and its good in theory, but until its put into practice you'll be waiting for something to happen that just wont. so if you want to be 180 and cut up, eat, and do so cleanly.

edit: i meant to quote the guy who started the thread, so this applies to you yungthor
