This sample diet is made for hardgainers. A hardgainer is someone that eats and eats and just can’t gain weight. This diet, however, allows you to eat very calorie-dense food without filling up too much. You will notice a high number of carbs and especially fats in this diet. If you are a hardgainer, don’t worry about this. Yes, you will put on some fat, but the idea is to pack those calories in, so you can put on some size! Plus, nearly 300g of protein is more than enough to build muscle (even though it’s only 22% of your calories). It is also very easy to follow and requires very little cooking. Try this if you have a busy lifestyle and really want to bulk up!
