OK - You win...........

Your bulking diet looks a lot like my contest one. I gave up trying to eat clean, and now just slam down 50-60 grams of protein with each meal, with as much extra calories as I can fit down my hole. I just find eating clean just doesnt yield enough calories to make any gains for me

I must agree. The key for me is meeting my protein requirement each day and getting in all the calories I can shove down. I dont discriminate!!

definitely not clean, lots of whole eggs,bread, tons of milk. My protein still comes from the same sources, but if i eat 1/2 container of cottage cheese and a glass of milk, thats 50 grams of protein but not many calories. So then I shove in say a peanut butter and jam sandwhich with tons of peanut butter on it, and a few butter tarts(200 calories each)

looks pretty clean to me bro....cept maybe for the jam, which is hardly a cheat food.....so, you are just saying you eat over and beyond the norm? few ?'s.....do you still eat every 2-3 hours, or more often.....any cardio? Do youi eat late night? Just before bed?

Hey bro i just noticed this thread and haven't read it all .i just had to jump in and say i really rate your guts to share this and admit to overdoing it -but it's like the alcoholic final;ly admitting he has a probelm

I hope you bust through this rough patch, when i was seriously overtrained i contented myself with the fact that it is not necessary to find your absolute limit of tolerance and train just beneath it..it is actually better to exercise well within ones recuperation capabilites.

i think you should try a lower volume approach for a while -yuo have nothing to lose and it will get your bench up again faster.

btw.. just off topic i guess but i make a tuna salad with two tins and stir in some spinach or lettuce ,drizzle on some olive oil and pack it up in a plastic tub. I eat two wholewheat rolls with it..it's a nice,easy lunch.

take care bro

I eat every 2 hours, for about 7 servings a day. Its definitely not clean at this point, as I am eating party mix, ice cream, etc on top of all my meals, just to add calories

 

[Tom Treutlein]

Needsize, you're just adding unhealthy, non-nutritious calories. What good does that do besides make you fat?

 

[du Chaneaux17]

It's for bulking, taking in a lot of calories and protein and shit, and when contest is coming, eat healthy and lower calories to cut down to definition for a contest. Off the top of my head........

 

[Tom Treutlein]

Right, but the point of bulking is to gain mass. Muscle mass. Not fat. You won't gain muscle by eating Ben & Jerry's and Party Mix.
