creatine and weight gainer

[WarriorPL]

I am doing a 5 day load up phase of creatine and a 5 day load phase of EAS weight gainer. after that, i will continue taking them.

My question is... i am on no strict diets... so i don't know what type of split i should go on now... that is protein/calorie/fat?

I am approx 162 pounds, and i am trying to get to about 175lbs... so thats about 13 pounds of muscle, which is very hard to get i think.. so i want to get to 170 first and work from there. But i don't expect it to be all pure muscle.

You should probably be looking for 50/40/10 on your diet. Be very careful with weight gain powder unless you are a hard gainer. It's easy to gain too much fat due to the carb/fat content.

13 lbs is a fair bit to gain naturally but many have done it in three months of consistent effort. You have to want it bad enough.

You do not NEED to load creatine, and it is not needed or advisable to load a weight gainer.

Carbs are more important for gaining size than protein. You should have more % in carbs than protein for packing on muscle. Take a look at Beezers Bulking diet here:

This is a clean bulking diet.
Adjust the ratios on the bottom to your match your weight.
