bulking diet help

[ZGzaZ]

Im thinking about going on this for 6 weeks and hope to gain a few lbs... my diet will consist of:

my breakfast of 2 large slices toast w/ peanut butter (2 Tbsp)
2 cups milk (2%)

2 protein shakes: 1 post workout w/ water (quicker absorbtion), and 1 before bed w/ milk (cassein protein for slower absorbtion)

my main meals will be a mix of 2lbs extra lean ground beef, and 2 boxes of mac and cheese mixed together

2 extra meals somewhere in the day being whatever i feel like eating at that time..(dont take into consideration)

weighing in the breakfast, shakes, and beef/mac mix i'll be getting:

3572 cals
281g's protein

i know theres a lot of carbs in the mac, so i'll be timing them...and not taking in any after 7pm...1 of the extra meals will be after this time being either low/no carbs... all the meals will be 2 - 2 1/2 hours apart, and training will be done around 4-5pm...im not as worried about fat intake right now, as im at 9%BF 186lbs...what do you guys think of this?

eat more

For a guy your weight i would suggest more calories. like 1000 more.

I made the best gains with about 5000 calories/day. That was going from 175 to 190.

 

[ZGzaZ]

eat more?? This is already around 4,300 - 4,500 depending on the two extra meals that i will be eating other than whats listed...

 

[Peckz]

Ahh forgot about the extra meals. 4500 should do it.¨

Sorry, saw the 3572 cals - thought that was your total for the day

 

[Lee]

eat 9000 a day, youll see some gains :d

right now im in the midst of my bulk up been doing it since feb. 1st and now ist may 15th and i was up 2 7000 a day because i was so busy now im lowering im noe down to 5000 and i plan to stay at 3500 for a while untill jylu and im upping agin to 10,000 so i dont lose muscle

So have u checked on how many cals it will take for you to get through a day do that then find out how many cals you need to eat!

but 4000-4500 should be fine for now!!

Good luck keep us posted on progress!!

Is bulking not as important to eat low GI carbs as opposed to the mac and cheese meals?

 

[Lee]

bulking, imho, is about EATING, period. low gi carbs, high gi carbs, who the hell cares, eat some carbs. get yer protein. stuff yer face, but make sure you dont get out of hand, dont wanna turn into the Michilin man. i just eat.
