I think the most you'd gain would be 2-2.5lb. of muscle and 2-3lb. of fat. Also, 130g for a 135lb. man isn't enough. You need 1-1.5g/lb. or ~135-200g of protein. 2700 calories sounds more like maintenance at 135lb., but I guess it just depends on your activity level. What's your BMR?*

Ka0s :In my experience, doing heavy barbell squats, bench presses, deadlifts, military presses, rows, etc. builds no significant muscle mass.
What you need to really get big is a solid routine which focuses on light weights and cable movements to really force blood into those muscles and get that deep burn & powerful contraction

Yeah I agree... unless your on the ole juice then it would be near impossible to put on 5 pounds of solid muscle. Thats on average a little over a pound a week which is what you should be gaining of mass with muscle. Not solid muscle.Originally Posted by rasse226

No and specially not with that diet.
The limits of the body and mind are unknown to most people.
