The #1 reason you're not gaining muscle (it's not your training)
Most guys train hard enough. The problem is almost never effort in the gym — it's what happens the other 23 hours.
Here's what I see over and over as a nutritionist:
Overeating while hiding in the 'I'm bulking' shadow: Eating 6 meals a day, low quality protein, spending 6 hours eating and not giving your gut a break.
The fix: Hit 125g of protein daily across 2 meals. That's it. No magic supplements, no weird timing protocols.
A simple day looks like:
Breakfast: 8 eggs + avocado + home-made yoghurt (65g)
Dinner: 250g ground beef/Steak + green bananas + veggies (65g)
That's ~130g of protein spread evenly. For most guys 160-200lbs, this is the sweet spot.
I build custom meal plans like this for every member inside WHEALTH — tailored to your weight, goals, and what you actually like eating. No cookie-cutter PDFs.
