i am participating in CarGuys 20lb bulk (clean ) and came across this interesting article





Diet

make damn sure you eat those many grams of protein per day. The rest of your diet is open to virtually whatever you want. Protein builds the muscle, the rest just provides the support. Carbs are carbs, fats are (for the most part), fats. 500 calories of table sugar will build just as much muscle as 500 calories of baked potato, so make sure you're eating ENOUGH first and then worry about quality. If you wanna eat poptarts and kentucky fried chicken have at it. Hey this is offseason muscle building time not Beach Watch or whatever gay Hollywood show everyone’s watching nowadays. The only other requirement besides the protein is 6-10 grams of essential fatty acids per day in the form of fish oil.

Has any one had sucess with this type of junk bulk without adding more fat than muscle?

Well, I don't know about that much junk on a bulk. But I've started adding a good few tablespoons of double whipping cream to my morning and bedtime shakes after some advice from Carguy. Getting in those extra calories seems to have kickstarted my weight gain again, and measurements aren't just going up at the belly :tucool: I wouldn't feast out totally on KFC personally though...I too am concerned about the muscle-fat ratio I'm gaining on my bulk...

Well, assuming "off season" in that article means "95% of the year, during which time we abandon all discipline and get fat and unhealthy", then yes, go for it!

Just don't forget the fundamental law of "SISO".
