here’s no such thing as one perfect diet for fat loss, or one perfect
mass or weight gaining nutritional plan. Many factors affect how we
do with a particular food plan – environment, metabolism, stress, life
routine, finances and even plain old personal motivation.
Safe to say, if you’re reading this, you probably won’t have an issue with
the last one – since you know if you fall into the category of a person
seeking fat loss, or mass gains, you are probably ready to embark on it.
Whether your goals are to gain mass or lose fat, the principles should
definitely be the same. But for mass gainers, this meal plan should come
as some relief.
NUTRITION
[N]
Eating a typical bodybuilding diet of 4,000 to 6,000 calories per day of lean
meats, high carbohydrates and moderate to low fat means eating – almost
constantly – throughout every day. This kind of diet works, as most of you
know, but it is not sustainable. Cramming food down your throat over the
course of six or seven meals daily, adding weight gain shakes to make up
deficit calories, then endure gut aches, gas, and a host of other ailments,
means you are so focused on an unhealthy relationship with food, there’s no
way to keep it up for the long haul.
