Quote ifkinghatesaints="ifkinghatesaints"Actually there is a simple answer.
5/6 meals a day
600/700 cals per meal
Protein shakes at times specified by cala
Train hard 4 times a week
8 hours of sleep
do that for months on end and you'll get bigger.
But if this guy thinkg he can eat his 3 square meals a day down some protein shakes and grow he's gooing to get nowehere fast.'"
We're agreeing here! I said he (maybe) wants to hear a simple answer like, use whey. I said it's more complex than that and your simple answer is exactly that - more complex than being told to down shakes for size.
The other thing i'd say, which has been touched on by others, is that you should treat your metabolism like a fire. You need to keep feeding it for it to work. If you eat rarely (every 5 hours or so) your body doesn't use the grub as best it can. Instead, it's inclined to store. So yeah, 5 or 6 meals at regular intervals helps.
