Hey! Wondering what workout programs you all have found successful for putting on the most gains. For me it was “get swole” but would like to try something new. Thanks!

    There are a bunch of programs out there, but my personal fav has been PHAT.

    Something that focuses on legs, as it's your biggest muscle group. SuperSquats works well.

    I think any good resistance training program will work to gain size if you eat in a surplus. Bodyweight training, weight training with low reps or high reps or moderate reps, etc.

    But what do you mean by "size"? Hopefully you want to minimize the fat gain.

    If you gain too fast you are just getting fat (with some muscle gain but mostly fat).

    MFP will allow you to set your caloric intake to gain .5 or 1lb a week which is just about right.

    It's hard to have the patience to gain weight gradually but that is the best way in my opinion.

    Why gain a bunch of fat and then have to lose it?
