Protein won't get you fat. Consume more calories than you burn and you'll get fat. You can, in theory, consume 0 protein and as long as you're in a surplus of calories, you'd gain fat.

the secret to getting fat son is remember the three B's
Bacon Burgers & Brownies
Make sure you get at least 3 servings of each everyday and take 2 of those calorie shakes and you will be well on your way to a new an improved heavier self....--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

eat 3 meals and take 3 weight gaining shakes between meals,
you want to get about 8000 calories per day for maximum fat gainage--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Strong misunderstanding of nutrition in this thread.
Weight.tomorrow = Weight.today + (calories.consumed.today - calories.burned.today) / 3500

Absolutely...if you are in a caloric surplus.
Bodybuilding is 60% training and 50% diet. Yes that adds up to 110%, because that's what you should be giving it. Change the inside, and the physique will follow.

um...well you won't be building any muscle doing this. To gain weight all you have to do is eat enough in the day to put you at a caloric excess over your maintenance. I.e. if your daily caloric intake requird to keep you at the weight you are at is say 2000 cals, then you want to be eating anywhere form 2200 - 3000 and upwards cals per day, depending on training and how hard of a gainer you are. It's that simple. Protein/weight gainer may help but only because you're getting calories from it......it's not a magic drink that magically makes you put weight on. Eat 20 big mac and you'll gain weight in exactly the same way.

. If fat is your goal i recommend you eat a balanced diet of cake, soda, MacDonald, and supplement with sugar water.
If you wanna gain muscle mass on the other hand go with carbs. Dont get fat, if you do you will waste all your time trying to lose the weight later in life. There is no benefit to being fat besides being able to sit on somone with more pressure.

Why would you wanna gain fat and not muscle? You need beefcake 4000, 4000 calories in a single serving! Beefcake!!!!!!!
Friday night. Date night in Miami. Every night is a date night in Miami, and everyone's having sex. But for me, sex never enters into it. I don't understand sex. Not that I have anything against women, and I certainly have an appropriate sensibility about men, but when it comes to the actual act of sex, it's always just seemed so undignified. But I have to play the game.

Yes, if there is a calorie surplus.
You will get fat.
It is easy to gain 20, 40, 80, 160, or even 320lbs of fat. Just overeat and don't train at all, and keep it up for years.
To gain a lot of muscular weight, you'll have to get MUCH stronger for reps for big exercises, while eating enough to keep the gains coming as long as possible:
Think in terms of adding a plate(+90lbs) to squat and dead, and then another, and then......over the next few months and years. And getting proportional increases in bench, press, row, curl.Beginners:

Unless it is obvious to anyone who isn't blind that you lift weights, you might still benefit from a little more attention to big basic barbell exercises for enough reps:).

Gaining weight is not hard.
Gaining muscle is not hard either.

Want to lift more; lift more.
Want to be 200LBS, eat like a 200LB man...Im about 211...want my daily menu?

In on dreamer bulk thread.
This post has your answer. For every lbs of bodyfat you wish to gain, you need to consume a surplus of 3500 calories. Plug your stats and activity level into a calorie calculator, and add 1,000 calories to the number it spits out for your caloric needs and you will gain 2 lbs of fat per week. In a year you can gain 104 lbs of fat this way. Considering that a gallon of bodyfat weighs around 7 lbs, this would effectively add over 14 full gains of lard to your body.
Another quality thread produced by the exercise forum. Great work everyone.

Apply the same formula. 3500x20=70,000 calories. If you, over time, consume 70,000 less calories than you consume, at the end of said time period you will have lost 20 lbs. Math... making sense of the world since Ancient Greece.
I really should post in this subforum more often.

What I eat almost daily.
Breakfast;
Bowl of shredded mini wheats (2 cups)
1 greek style yogurt with olive oil mixed into it
Sup Meal:
One scoup of whey isolate mixed with 16 oz of milk, post workout.
I use the GNC brand. It has really low carbs almost no sugar and like 50 cals.
Snack: Hand full of almonds, and a granola bar with nutella spread on it, another greek yogurt
Lunch: Usually a sandwich, turkey meat, no mayo, avacado and a cup of milk on the side with olive oil mixed into it and an apple
Dinner: Steak, baked sweet potato, blueberry muffin, slice of cheese cake/brownies
Sup meal: another protein shake before bed
Has been working for me. I float around 205-211
