fast food good way to bulk up and gain strength?

[titans1854]

since i can easily eat a meal from mcdonald's that has about 2,300 calories and i was wondering if these kinds of meals would be helpful in bulking up and gaining strength. I'm 16, 145, and i want to bulk up for the upcoming football season.

Hell no! Even when bulking you should try and eat "clean". Fast food like McDonalds is loaded in saturated fat, sodium, sugar and the meat is of the lowest quality.

so it wouldn't help if a had a big mac, large fries, and large chocolate milk 3 times a week?

yeah, it will help you get fat.

well, this is usually what i eat per day:

-can of chili (40g protein, 46g carbs, 580 calories)
-can of ravioli (16g protein, 70g carbs, 460 cal)
-2 hot links (32g protein (together)) or can of soup (soup doesn't have very much of anything)
-2-3 protein shakes each has (33g protein, 240 cal)
-dinner (usually consists of potatoes and chicken (hey, i'm irish) or some kinda of pasta
-prolab n-large2 shake (have like 3 a week after some of my workouts) has, including milk, (875 cal, 72g protein, w/out milk has 86g carbs)

is this diet okay for bulking up? and yea i know i eat a lot of canned food. i usually get atleast 160g of protein (off day). i weight 145 lbs. i'm 16.

You better hurry! Dead periods usually end mid August. Good luck.
