Eating at a slight surplus, hitting your macro's, and lifting hard...will build muscle. Certain types of cheeses are not necessary.

Any cheese that you enjoy eating. You need to learn how much protein and dietary fat you need to consume at a minimum, to reach sufficiency. And you need to learn how to use those figures to calculate total caloric intake properly. I suggest you start by reading this.... [url]http://forum.bodybuilding.com/showthread.php?t=121703981[/url]
Any cheeses that fit your macros. With respect to body composition individual cheese selection is largely irrelevant.
This week I'm eating port salut.
Edit: I see you're in Ireland. I'd go with whatever you can get local. Srs. I buy almost all of my cheese from local producers & it is way better than anything from the store.
Im voting havarti.
Only because I love it.
Feta, Cottage, Quark, Cheddar, Emmentaler, Gouda, Cream Cheese, Blue Cheese, Brie, Camembert, Labneh, Coalho, Requeijao, Catupiry, Minas....choose !
fit that cheese into your macros
I'm quite fond of manchego.
Get a few wheels of cashel blue.

one squirt in between sets for optimal anabolism!
Fresh Mozzarella has plenty of protein in it.... And I love it
[QUOTE=tomgaa;750279973]whats the best 3-4 cheeses to eat when building muscle[/QUOTE]The best 3 or 4 cheese to eat when bulking, cutting or maintaining would be the 3 or 4 cheese that you like the most.
[i]Now isn't that simple?[/i]
cheers guys, id just usually eat what ever cheese is in the fridge, il just sample a different cheese each week n c what i lik, thanks!!!
Damn, all this talk about cheese is making me hungry... I personally love goats cheese. Kind of a cross between creamcheese and feta
1) Whatever fits your macros [U]and[/U]
2) Tastes good to you
My personal, low-brow recommendations:
-cottage cheese, 2%
-colby jack cheese (try it on your eggs)
-cheddar cheese (my favorite on tuna)
-feta cheese (F1@#ing delicious no matter what you add it to)
