Alright my stats are as follows:
age:21
height:6'0
weight:195

Alright my goals is to bulk as lean as possible...so here is the plan I have made...
(p+c)=protein and carbs
(p+f)=protein and fat

Meal 1(p+c)
4 egg whites, 1 whole egg, 1 cup oat meal
32g protein, 53g carbs, 10g fat, 510 Cals

Meal 2(p+c)
2 turkey patties, 1 baked potato, 1 slice whole wheat bread
45g protein, 41g carbs, 18g fat, 500 cals

Meal 3(p+f)
1 can of tuna, 1 tbsp mayo,1 slice whole wheat bread, 1 tbsp flax seed oil
35g protein, 15g carbs, 24g fat, 440 cals

Meal 4(p+light amountof carbs)
1 scoop of whey, 6 oz milk, 1/2 cup oats
39g protein, 45g carbs, 6g fat, 390 Cals

TRAIN

Meal 5(p+c)PWO
2 scoops whey, 1 cup oats
58g protein, 58 carbs, 7g fat, 520 cals

Meal 6(p+c)

[quigley]

seems low on the carbs to me

 

[glenihan]

i would up the carbs a little say 325 and lower the protein to 300

also use sweet potatoes instead of baked potatoes much lower GI

 

[Mulletsoldier]

May I ask why the mayo, and white bread in some of those meals? I agree with Glen on the sweet potatoes, and I honestly feel you could simplify things a little and clump two meals together for a total of six daily.

 

[Buff Bagwell]

I know but I cant eat tuna without at least some mayo, and the bread is whole wheat which I thought wasn't that bad.

Also what do you guys think of the calories...?

Oh and I will condense it into 6, because your right I think it will be alot easier to manage.

Switch the mayo to Vegenaise.
Switch the whole wheat bread to multi-grain.

use low fat mayo .. nothing wrong there .. and with reg mayo .. isn't all the saturated fat just from the egg yolks? which i don't think is that bad

as for the bread .. pepridge (sp) farms has NATURAL breads (whole wheat, multi-grain, etc.) that are great as there's no corn syrup etc that's in many "whole wheat" breads

ready to bite the bullet

How much muscle can be expected from winter bulking if creatine, protein and 5,000-6,000 a day diet (majority of it clean, good food) are employed? I'm 5'11'' 190 and fairly low bodyfat 6 to 8 abs showing year round, willing to lose them this winter. Just wondering if others can put on a pound of muscle a week or just 2 a month? If I am putting on 2 pounds of muscle a month should a be content for a two to one ratio of muscle to fat or is that rediculous..

Thanks

I'm sorry that is so badly written.

whats GI?

 

[Lawhammer]

whats GI?

Glycemic Index. It a measure of how much a food will spike blood glucose level.

 

[superman20]

so basically everyone is saying to combine meals to make 6. up your carbs at least equal to your protien. Remember carbs spare protein. sweet potatoes have a lower GI (glycemic index) meaning it doesnt spike insulin levels as much as regular potatoes, which means your less likely to put on any fat.
