You could also check hete at FT to find out how much protein/carbs/fat and calories you should be ingesting each day for progressive gains/mass building goals. Hope this helps :)

Then figure out the ratios of nutrients at @ 40% protien, 50% carb, 10% fat. Stick to low glycemic carbs for lasting energy except after a workout when your body is starving for nutrients. Divide your intake over 5-6 meals a day for steady absorbtion. And most importantly, track your diet or you will never know what works and what doesn't. By the way - carbs have 4 calories per gram, protein 4, and fats 9.

This is the amount of calories you need to stay exactly the same with the same amount of activity and everyday occurances in your life. Once you have this, you can easily start an increase in calories. A calorie surplus is needed to gain weight. So, increase your calories by anywhere from 250-500 per day, though I would start on the lower end to avoid too much initial fat gain. Watch the scale, weigh once per week first thing in the morning, this is your most accurate time, water depeleted, etc., and when gaining stops, increase again, because now you are again at your maintenance level. A macro amount of 40/40/20 p/c/f can work well, even a bit more extreme 30/50/20. Experiment with these macros a bit so you add the least amount of fat and most lean tissue. Carbs are muscle sparing, this is why you will use more carbs and less protein in a gaining diet. Good luck,hope this helps. ============ Quoting from doc_jr: hi there, im 5'8 and 205lbs, pritty small, but very bulky. im lookin for a good healfy diat to mass up, any sugestions would great. ============= -------------- If you don't stand for something, you will fall for anything....

dvelswk Posts: 192 Joined: 2005/05/07	2005/05/26, 02:04 PM Do not attack Bigandrew doc_jr, he answered your question and stated his opinion as well. He is right, if you come in bragging on this forum and ask simple questions not many people will show you respect. You have to give respect to get it. Bigandrew has helped me out and a lot of others out as well, you have no place attacking him. There have been people like you that have been banned, I'm sure people remember erebus and chulla. I'm sure there are more those are just the ones I was here for, and they were very disrespectful. But to answer your question in my opinion, like Bigandrew said eat 4-5 meals a day. For gaining mass you want to eat as much as you can. Go to "nutrition plan" on this site and it will make a diet up for you. For me gaining mass I have to eat 4800 calories a day and I'm 185lbs, so the main thing is eating a lot of clean foods, and space it out to atleast 5 meals a day, I eat every 2 hours. Also since your new to the site, my biggest recommendation is listen to anything bb1fit says, he is probably the biggest help to anyone on this site. He will always give good information and he doesn't just type it, he knows what he's talking about and he will show references to support what he says. He's a very good person to ask help from. -Derek
