How To Bulk Up Fast - Without Getting Fat

Recently, i burned slightly too much and fet that the protein intake is rather low. Without having enough calories intake, the muscles will not grow.

As such, it is important to take in more healthy calories..


From Vince Del Monte, here is what he will advice,

"Here is the strategy I used to ingest an extra 1000-2000 calories per day.

Get a pen and paper:
-> Three-four large 1 L water bottles
-> A blender
-> Couple bags of frozen berries from Costco
-> A tub of natural peanut butter
-> A tub of protein powder
-> A few bags of low fat milk
-> 10 minutes of your day

No, you are not mixing all these ingredients exactly but you can mix the following:

*** 1-3 cups of low fat milk - 300 calories
*** 1-2 cups of mixed berries - 200 calories
*** 40-60 grams of protein powder - 160-240 calories
*** 1-2 tbsp of natural peanut butter - 200 calories

As you can see, this adds up quickly to over 800 clean calories and they are all healthy foods. You will notice that these shakes have no junk sugars and no 'bad' fats. So for all those whiners who complain that they can't get enough food each day - throw that excuse out the window. You now have a solution. If calorie counting is not your thing then simply monitor the number of cups, scoops and tbsps. I suggest starting with portion sizes of 1 for everything. While the 40-60 grams of protein is always consistent i.e. 1 cup, 1 scoop and 1 tbsp of the above ingredients and then build to two and three where recommended.
