  • You will probably have to eat some calorie dense food (junk food) to meet your goals. I usually eat a mixture of junk food and healthy food to meet my macros.

    Is there a problem with the trans fat in processed foods?

    Ectomorph much? Secret is in the carbs! Do the math based your unique body. I for example gain lean at 5,000cal with 700Grams Carbs , 200Grams Protein , 117grams Fat. Cardio should be avoided while bulking and train for hypertrophy if your looking for size . Supplements are crucial for high calorie intakes. Do weekly measurements to track the quality weight. The answers are endless since everyone thinks theur right. So do your research learn the basic and apply them accordingly. Be patient and you will acheive your goals :)

    Good luck

    I'm starting BodyBeast on Monday and just had to up my calories and adjust my ratios to be in line with their recommendations. weighed in at 155lbs and it's telling me 2800 calories @ 50%carbs/25%protein/25%fat for the first 8 weeks.
