Can you post your current diet ...there needs to be a proper balance of macronutriients...I assume you want to gain muscle, as opposed to fat?

diet for building mass?????
Hello,
I am just beginning to workout. What diet would be the best for me to gain mass? I am a thin to medium build, 176 lbs...
I have heard that a high carb diet might be the way to go.

You'll have to learn the lingo bro....around here diet simple refers to your nutrition habits/what you eat....not "diet" in the sense of someone on weight-watchers or something trying to lose a tonne of fat w/o exercising

Cavemen had diets
So yes, in other words what do you eat.

Okay...if you want help, you need to give us information...we can't help you if you don't help us. You eat more than meat and potatoes....I guarantee it...please lay out a typical days worth of food, broken down into meals...how many times a day do you eat, what do you eat at each meal, how much, etc.

You can't "gain mass" if you don't eat! Things to read:Originally posted by nomass

Bulking w/ slow burners
Male Cutting Meal Plan This is actually a cutting plan...but it's likely more food than you're used to right now, so would make a good bulking plan for you.
