I feel full (and slightly sick) just hearing about all that dirty food in one day lol! I remember I used to make a protein shake from milk powder and nesquick milkshake powder which would be 60 grams carbs and 40 grams protein and alot of sugar. I would set it up ready at my bed side, set my alarm for 4am in the morning mid sleep, drink the shake down then go straight back to sleep after. It's a dirty way of bulking but effective I found
I remember reading this story in an old elite article a few years back. Whenever I get asked about weight gain (because anyone who's 200+ with a little bit of muscle will absolutely get asked that question, eventually) I always refer them to that article. I tell them it may sound like satire but, the principles are absolutely correct. Eating big equals getting big, pure and simple.
A great way to bulk is start with a half gallon of whole milk a day, so basically 4 16oz glasses a day which is easy along with your normal intake... should add a good 15 to 20 pounds in a month or 2 depending on your metabolism....
I gained weight by eating 3 or 4 meals but then adding a blender smoothie that had whole milk, low salt peanut butter, and protein powder as main ingredients (you can also add fruit, chocolate syrup, greek yogurt, etc). I drank one at night everyday. You add as much peanut butter as you can and still get it down.

Yeah the secret diet to get fat, look like a pig, get high cholesterol and triglycerides levels and end up with diabetes, high blood pressure, heart disease and a stroke. 🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️
@@Xplora213 So what do you understand by the secret diet to gain weight? Are you really that dumb? First of all that is not a secret, like we don't know that eating junk food lika a pig makes people gain fat weight? My point is why a professional Bodybuilder would waste his time making a video like this and waste his time interviewing that pig? What is the message he is giving dumb people? To eat junk food ,gain fat weight and look like a pig? That is unhealthy and stupid.. so what is your point smart ass?
@Russell Peacock WTF? You are the one missing the point, so you think that is a secret diet to gain weight? Are you that stupid to not know that eating lots of junk food will make you fat and gain weight? So where is the fucking secret? Lol.. 😂😂😂🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️By the way eating junk food to look like a pig doesn't make you stronger is pure fucking lard, there is no reason to eat like that no rational person would do that to their body. Also why would a professional Bodybuilder would make a stupid video like this? That has absolutely nothing to do with Bodybuilding.
@Russell Peacock what does that have to do with Bodybuilding? Who cares to get stronger and look like a pig and unhealthy, that will lead to stroke or heart attack.
I sat on the morning bus eating ice cream for like a solid half year till the regulars just knew me for it, and would ask what flavor I had that day. Its a winter wasteland here, so it would just re-freeze between bus transfers, but give me like a solid 45 mins to eat this tub. BUT THATS WHAT IT TAKES BOIS.
I always slammed down a hot and ready pizza on the way home from the gym, and then hit steak and potatoes when I got home. Chocolate milk all day, and protein shakes with ice cream and candy bars. Halloween was the best time for shakes.
This really struck home for me. Eating a ton of vegetables and lower calorie foods made me feel bloated and was really uncomfortable. The act of eating takes too much time... It's not something that I found to be sustainable. I legitimately have trouble eating enough when eating clean not due to willpower, but because of the other reasons I listed.
I feel ya. I've tried eating Joel Furhman style diets while playing sports, and it's a fucking ball-buster. Little to no meat and literally pounds of vegetables a day. So much endless chewing of broccoli, green beans and spinach.
Clean eating can only get you so far in this world. Dirty food is absolutely required for the short amount of time you're trying to break that weight gain plateau. I love Dave and all of his knowledge.
My parents had a similar ideology for dinner while I was growing up. I could not leave the table until everything on my plate was eaten (victory plate). Needless to say, I was a big boy when I was young and have no problem with my appetite now haha
Even if you don’t succeed with this, getting halfway there will push you in the right direction. I started having McDonald’s for breakfast And half a chicken and chips for lunch, half a gallon of any kind of milk for a few months as a lifelong hard gainer. I didn’t get to 220lbs but I got to 200 and that was much better than 170!!
@@JohnSmith-cz3us nah mate, blew up my liver due to haemachromatosis. I was eating like Jay Cutler and it was killing me. I've stayed at 200 pretty comfortably ever since though.
Trains here. Who ordered some pizzas 👍 I started at 201, dropped to 181. (Lost a bunch of mid section fat.) Up to 191. A year and a half process. Stuck there for now but I’m loosing fat still while I’m gaining muscle. Goal is 210-220 over the next 4 years. I’ll be 43. Doing very well, pretty clean. Keeping body fat around 10 percent if I can. Exercising most of my life but not like this. 6’1”, but I’m supposed to be 6’ 4”. Scoliosis. Feel way better nowadays.
This is the best video that I've seen on youtube about gaining weight I've been working out for four or five years now and I cound't be bigger than 160 pounds because I only ate healthy food , now I have the correct answer thank you
I did a very similar thing (just for one meet) going from 165 to 220 in two months. Needless to say my health sucked, my breathing sucked and.... I fucking loved it!
I remember seeing Mr.Tate training at Westside and on the videos Louie Simmons made.Shout at to my boy Big Donnie D!!!Always a learning experience on yer videos Mr.Meadows.Seems like the strongest men in the world are right here in Ohio!
I tried the hamburger helper diet. It was pretty easy at first, but around day 3 I was sick of hamburger helper..if you try it don't stock up on the stroganoff flavor
My ears perked up when the Hershey bars came up. They are loaded with calories and fat. I use it occasionally as a post workout simple carb. Two bars are 440 calories, 52 grams of carbs, 26 fat. But every day or 16 per day?? Not for me.
Overkill imo- I’d just add a tub of ice cream a day or an ice cream sandwich after each meal, 2-3 pizzas per week. I’d keep eating my regular meals every 2.5 hrs (ground beef or chicken & rice or potatoes) No need for McD or Chinese buffet. Take psyllium husks to keep things moving.
Awesome video and its totally true. I had major issues for years trying to get above 180 pounds, I have a high metabloic rate when I was younger and basically I just ate pizza for a week straight. It was all I ate from sun up to sun down. Worked flawlessly.
I used to think this diet was a gag til I trained with AJ Roberts in San Diego and he was like "nah man that shit is real. I did it and went from like 250 to 320 in one training cycle"
When doing a hard cycle most of us hit a plateau when it comes to weight gain. I added 8 whoppers a day on top of my daily calories and could not add a pound on my body. Not a pound of fat or muscle lol.
The cameraman can't keep the camera still because of the diabetic coma he is about to enter after following this bulking. Christ, frame it and then leave it alone. Tripods are a wonderful thing.
John the way you look at him and illustrate the whole scene of the story David was illustrating in the first place. I litterly choked on my spit. I forgot about this video. Laughing.My.Ass.Off!
So weird, when I was 18-22 years old I used to eat maybe 1 meal a day, sometimes 2 and I would maintain my weight or gain weight. I've been training for just over 14 months now and I eat anywhere from 3500-3700 of clean calories a day and I'm somehow losing weight. I'm actually going to try add another 1000 calories of dirty foods and see how I go, even though it already feels like my stomach is going to explode every day
@@mountaindog1 Personally wouldn't use a bit of that information myself, but I couldn't stop watching it. And, at times, the look on your face was priceless. But, thank you for your training videos. Incorporated a bunch of your advice in my workout yesterday, and today I'm sore as hell.
Great video .. I am a big fan of MSG , you can buy MSG bulk at most chinese stores and not only it helps with increasing appetite (in China they give it to kids to make them eat ) but it makes you hold fluids , feels great in your joints
John killed me by repeating Dave's approach to diet. Lmfao good stuff! Seriously just eat ice cream WITH a protein shake after your meals or between them. That did WONDERS for me best thing is you can still stay lean by watching to see if you are gaining weight then add in some cardio to keep your health and whatnot in check. I started at 185 in 3 years I went up to 275 WITH ABS! Trust me it works!
Forgot to mention that I also did 10 minutes of cardio between each meal to keep myself somewhat hungry so I could munch on a handful of nuts (240) easy right there.
Dude it is so hard to gain weight once you hit that plateau. I'm 5-8 the happiest I've ever been was 168 and my body mass index was like 23 I believe and I body fat was 11%. Now when I hit that point I tried so hard to get up till like 172 and I just could not gain fucking like 5 more pounds. It was frustrating. And I ate everything I appreciate these guys as knowledge beyond belief.
I've been skinny my whole life . I been skinny my whole life .11 years ago my mom said I was too underweight . I just started working with a trainer 6 months ago . I 've always been lean but I've never been able to buk up
Great clip. Can I ask a rookie question? If my goal is to get 2900 calories a day (that is to gain muscle with my current weight of 150lb) c302/f121/p151 and during my workouts I burn around 500 calories I end up adding back those 500 calories in food to end the day with net 2900 on the training day. Curently I am increasing all of the 3 macros to get those 500 calories back so on a training day it looks like: c354/f143/p178. My question is would you increase all 3 of the macros or not? Would any of the macros take priority in your opinion? Thank you.
Don't worry about how many kcal you're losing due to exercise. Eat more and watch the scale. If you're gaining too fast on 2900, cut back. If you're not gaining any weight, up the kcal. Your activity level is going to vary and it is extremely difficult to estimate how many kcal you're expending due to exercise. Keep the variables you can control (calories) and ignore the ones that are going to vary
