How do I bulk up?

I just started tracking calories. So I'm not sure but to me seems like a lot.

its not enough, eat more

Should I still drink protein shakes?

It seems like a lot to you because you aren't used to eating more calories. If you're 140, then you're used to the amount of calories it takes to maintain 140. You'll have to eat more than ever consistently to gain consistently. Liquid calories are easier to get down, hence tried and true gomad.

yes but always with a meal. on its own it will just kill your already shitty appetite.

also, eat as late as possible before going to bed and as soon as you wake up.

What do you recommend?

>I even used protein shakes for a while.
Shit bro if you went to such desperate measures during your 2 months of lifting and still no results I guess you're shit out of luck

I always eat a big meal for dinner but I never eat much for breakfast.

i wouldn't recommend eating at such fucked times, just eat more within the day

then surely you understand that you're not eating enough, right?

stick to what works for you, fatty

yes but I'm never hungry in the mornings. I just feel like shit if i try to eat a lot.

somehow im now a fatty because i told someone to eat more during the day and not directly before bed? alright nigger

stay skelly then

I'll push through it. I'm determined.

eat food dumbass

i'm in the same boat as you when it comes to eating enough to not lose gains. i'll give you what i've found out so far works best for me:

first meal as early as possible, last meal as late as possible. every meal should fill you to the brim. 4 meals 5 hours apart, i.e. 9am, 2pm, 7pm, and midnight, means you're allowing yourself to become sufficiently hungry just in time for your next meal. NO SNACKING. snacking leads to reduced hunger and feeling like shit due to your body reducing energy output. food that you don't have to chew as much works great since it goes down quick - oat porridge and mash potato are your friends.

good

TRACK YOUR CALORIES
YOU MIGHT THINK YOU'RE EATING "ALOT" BUT YOU DONT KNOW SHIT
TRACK YOUR CALORIES

Lol that “5.5”% bf with love handles lmao

Also in every one of these progress pics most of what is changing is posture. First pic is slouching, shoulders in and gut unflexed, last pic is shoulders back, standing tall, lats and gut flexed to create this illusion of progress

eat anyway, you'll get used to it

im 6'2.5" and went from 158 to 192 this year. Lots of intense lifting and force feeding

>was 80kg
>now 76.9kg at 6ft

feels bad man, forcing myself to eat isn't fun, how do fatties even do it

idk how fatties do it, but personally I watch motivation videos while eating and really think of the purpose behind each bite. I eat 5 eggs and a bagel for breakfast and get it down everytime. im btw

im an ex fatty and im ''bulking'' for the first time
are you supposed to get a spike in weight when you start the bulk

Drink at least a quart of milk a day, 3 square meals and 2 protein shakes

Breakfast is the most important and easiest meal to stuff calories in. 3 eggs a few sausage links and a bagel will put you at almost 1k. It's really not hard you just have to tell yourself you're hungry all the time and eventually you will be

dont think so

Depends if you just came off a cut. If you did, your glycogen stores are replenishing and retaining water to store in your muscles. Also, greater overall food volume in your gut can contribute to added weight. General rule of thumb is ignore the first week of weight and start tracking after the first week.

This ñigga right here

Just eat more dude

>a spike in weight when you start the bulk
isn't that what you want?

Eat more.

If you can't eat more then drink more.

>2-3scoops
>2 cups full fat milk
>As much natural peanut butter as you can handle
>A load of oats

Blend that shit and you're easy at 1000+calories from a single drink. Your meals can make up the rest.

>discussing how to eat more
>no don't eat more often!
That's why. You have the recovering fatty mindset. Or the r/fitness mindset. GOTTA EAT BIG TO GET BIG C'MON!

Who bulks in summer? That's cutting season
>Winter is coming, anons.

>whole gallon cause lactose intolerant
No you fuck
Your body only produces a certain amount of lactate (the compound responsible for breaking down lactose) at a time.
If you consume lots of lactose then you use up a lot of lactate and are no longer able to break down lactose any longer, this is why you get creamy liquid shits.

I love this response. It’s fucking clockwork. Makes me giggle

>starting at 16.5% body fat

HA! What a joke. Most people start around 21-22%

Started out with similar stats like you this year, 150lbs at 6ft with around 17 - 18% body fat. Yes, I had about zero muscle on my body, only fat. Currently though, after almost an entire year of lifting I'm 185lbs with 16% body fat. It's nowhere near great, but it's an incredible improvement over what used to be nothing.

Eat and lift more.

Peanut butter I do a liter of milk a day for lean bulk lots of scrambled eggs with cheese any high calorie high protein food
peanuts are wonderful

T~5'9 baby man tho

Are we not going to talk about this mans “5%” body fat

No. But have you noticed he looks like a giraffe

>1.5kg in a week
>not 90% fat

hmmmmm

>pb with milk and peanuts
Mein negger.

It's like my gains are 50% from animals products of different kind and other 50% from nuts. They are just so easy calories it's stupid not to just chow down on them after meal or something. Good option also is chugging pb with your protein shakes. 150g of nuts is around 900kcal. Add that to your diet OP and you are on good path.
