@seannalewanyj: As long as you're hitting your protein minimum for the day, how you distribute the rest of your macros just comes down to personal preference. So if your primary goal is to put on size but you're having a hard time hitting your overall calorie needs, the simplest route is to just bump up your fat consumption. Fats contain 9 calories per gram (more than double that of protein and carbs which are 4 calories per gram) making it a very easy way to get in those extra calories in a much smaller volume of food. Oils, nuts, nut butters, seeds, dark chocolate, avocado, coconut milk and fatty fish are just a few examples. Do keep in mind though that you don't need a huge calorie surplus to maximize muscle growth in the first place. A couple hundred above maintenance is usually enough, so don't take this advice too far or it could end up working against you. This is just a little tip to consider if you want a simple way to add in some easy calories while still keeping the total amount in the proper range. #Fitness #gym #workout #bodybuilding #gains
