muscle building meal plan
This meal plan is designed for you to use to pack on size and build muscle. Thus, you will
ideally want to be eating at a calorie surplus. To do so most effectively with this meal plan,
please read through the below notes and steps.
● This meal plan comes up to a total of
around 2,700 calories. This is likely
around the ideal calorie intake to build
muscle for most lifters who currently
weigh around 150-170lbs (68kgs77kgs). If you don’t fall within the above
weight range OR simply want to gauge if
this calorie intake is optimal for you, then
perform the below step.
● To manually calculate how many calories
you’ll need to optimally build muscle,
a simple way to do this is to multiply
your bodyweight in lbs by 15 and
then add ~250-500 to this depending
on your training experience. If you’re a
beginner with less than a year or two of
lifting experience in the gym, you can
opt for a more aggressive surplus by
using the higher end of the range (e.g.
add 400-500) whereas if you’re a more
experienced lifter, you can opt for the
lower end of the range (e.g. add 250300). This will give you a rough indication
of what your “muscle building calorie
intake” should be.
◦ For example: let’s say you’re a
beginner who weights 150 lbs.
150 x 15 = 2250. Add 400 to this and
you get 2,650 calories, which would be
your goal calorie intake.
● As you progress with this meal plan,
you will be gaining weight. You want
to aim to gain around 1-2% of your
bodyweight per month. If you’re
undershooting or overshooting based
on this goal, then adjust your meal plan
accordingly by increasing or decreasing
your calorie intake.
● This meal plan is ideal for those working
a 9-5 job and is structured in that fashion.
If you workout at other times during the
day, then you can simply move your
pre-workout (which is also your
immediate post workout) meal and rearrange your day/meals accordingly.
● To periodize your diet overtime to
mitigate excess fat gain, it would be
wise to transition to a 1 month calorie
deficit after every 3 months or so of
being in a surplus. This can be done in
this meal plan by simply cutting down
the calorie intake to roughly ~1,900
to 2,300 calories. This is easily done by
decreasing some of the servings of the
carbs (e.g. use less oats, sweet potato,
and rice) and/or decreasing some of the
servings of the fats (e.g. use less peanut
butter, walnuts, swap eggs for egg
whites, etc.).
And… that’s pretty much it! Enjoy and let me know how you like the meals by sharing and
