"Maingaining" is not the answer. If you have definite goals of wanting to build muscle and gain strength to a significant degree - and you're currently within a low to moderate body fat percentage - then you need a calorie surplus to maximize your muscle gains. However, for some individuals with a smaller appetite and/or "faster metabolism" this isn't always easy. I get questions fairly often from people saying that they're "bulking but feel full all the time" and are looking for solutions. If you're currently struggling to eat enough calories to gain muscle, make sure to watch today's video through as I outline several simple muscle building diet tips to help you easily bump up your calorie intake without even necessarily needing to consume a higher volume of food. Employ just one or two of these and you shouldn't have any issues hitting your calorie target for the day for consistent, ongoing muscle growth. - Jak na to + styl

Hi, how do I work out my mantience weight ?? Thanks
Is there an app or a tool that you would recommend to track your calorie intake?
Are you awarding any gifts to your subscribers? I think I might be getting scammed đ€
Dude, I live in Puerto Rico where a hurricane just cut off energy throughout the entire island and for a week and a half I wasn't able to eat enough calories to continue my lean bulk, losing about 3 pounds in the process. So this video really helped and I'm gonna make sure to put these tips into practice.

The problem isn't my appetite, it's my wallet...
Chicken and rice is an easy cost effective way for that. Especially getting those ricearoni boxes that are super cheap, and getting frozen chicken over fresh chicken
No it's not.
@@Don_Winchester you have anything of value to say or do you just like to be a troll
@@TyAndro said the guy with nothing to say.
@@Don_Winchester I gave proven facts that i have no experienced myself while you have given nothing of value in your comments đ€Ą
That's what i like when you say ''No BS'' you go straight to the point without taking detour for ''more viewtime'' thats the reason that after 2 years of going to the gym and learning about all the spheres around it your're one of the only fitness influencer I still follow and listen to. thank you
Sean is awesome. And if you haven't already, I'd also recommend that you check out Mind Pump. They're great, too.
Sean, Mike Mathews and Jefff Nippard are basically all I need. I never bother looking for others.
Yup, amazing tips and info and he didn't even stretch the video for midrolls.
Well, not like I care about midrolls anyway (AdBlock Gang).
This is perfect man. all my life Iâm eating too much, 3 months of weight training and Iâm not eating enough đ€·ââïž đ€Šđżââïž this video comes in handy. The internet is easiest to lose sight on whatâs real and whatâs realistic. I hope this reaches the masses, Sean. Youâre like a fitness fairy đ§
the magical kind
Dude isn't it crazy??!!! Some well intentioned progressive overload and slowly eating just over maintenance and you can insanely increase your metabolism. Well done sir!
my diet is literally 80% clean, 20% junk... I did this trying to get the extra calories. thank you for validating my thought process! ill even put a little bit of ice cream, (sometimes) in my pre workout shakes.... lol
Did you mean post-workout? I can't imagine eating ice cream before lifting.
@@UnoriginalUsername25 No, I meant pre... I just put a scoop, or so, with protein, some peanut butter powder, and some oatmeal... Just for the extra caloric energy...
having the occasional treat isnt gnna hurt ur gains, thats for sure, but simply becuz sth doesnt hurt your gains doesnt mean its good for your health. the problem with the trend of telling ppl basically IIFYM is it tends to make ppl forget just cuz it gives y gains doesnt mean its healthy lol (not saying the occasional treat is problrmatic)
@@eddyededwin yea. Exactly. That's why it's an 80/20 split... The 20% would be the "occasional"
Terrible idea. You may gain muscle but you will also develop insulin resistance and when you're older you will gain a ton of weight like the athletes that eat junk then gain weight when they retire.
I'm a 15 year old who grew up extremely skinny. I started working out about 4 months ago and felt like I was doing something wrong with my food intake. Thanks for the advice
Same situation bro.
Howâs your bulk been?

Just received my training plan today, and just wanted to say thank you Sean. It is all detailed and complete, I REALLY appreciate how much effort you put into it, as a fitness influencer. Keep going on dude đȘ
Your video quality keeps getting better and better. Thanks for the helpful info!
Amazing video! These tips are super useful and really educational. Question for you... have you ever tried Next Level Diet? I got a muscle-building meal plan from them that's worked wonders for me.

Just what I needed, thanks Sean, you always help me to make the gains!
Loved the editing on this one. Props to the editor
This has been on my mind for so long now. Thanks for dropping the vid.
Hey Sean (you may never look @ this), I just wanted to let you know that your approach to fitness is the most healthy one I've seen on the platform. I've overcome an eating disorder, gotten into fitness, and have gained 7 pounds of muscle :) I've also been okay with the small amount of fat that's come along with it, all thanks to you!
Congratulations!! I'm so proud of you :)
Always producing solid content. The tip about junk food definitely helps as I've gone 'too clean' in my diet for fear of long term health consequences, but as you stated, moderate amounts are fine. Keep it up đđ»đđ»đđ»
Did he just say âokâ to junk food??? The sky just opened and the sun is shining. Wendyâs, here I come!!
yeah thats how i felt
These tips are so good. Theyâre easily applicable and result in significant improvements for people struggling with bulking. Great video!
Thank you this is navigated my way to where I needed to be
So glad youâre back man and these tips just came right on time. I have a low appetite in general, even though Iâm growing muscle, so Iâve been trying to force feed myself feeling like crap. This should definitely help out. Sometimes the solutions really are so simple.

Really love these kind of videos. Iâm 163 but I want to hit around 180-185. Knowing I donât have to overly restrict my diet to get the results I want is music to my ears đȘđœ
Yeah that is true for sure and it is good to know.
dam, i was 180lbs but lost all of it to 160 lb because of my fast metabolism and homemade food. Im mad and sad and depressed because i went from 15in arms to 14 inch arms and was hoping to get 16in to 16 1/2.
This info is amazing, super well edited, and no filler. Thanks
Thanks Sean for making full length vidoes as well, I was missing these.
Btw your Reels are đ„đ„ as well.
I needed this! I went on a slow cut for so long that I'm used to eating only 2 main meals and 1 protein shake a day. Coming back to a bulk, I have been struggling to put more food in my mouth for nearly a month now (no weight gain whatsoever)

Hey sean I just want to thank you for all of the great videos you have put out Iâve been working out for a little over 2 years now and your vids have been a BIG help
Unfortunately Sean does not understand what calories are and what role they play in human nutrition. Professor Kay puts him right - czcams.com/video/B-r0O8Wr4s0/video.html

Brilliant advice, as always! I often down a couple of teaspoons of olive oil or a big glass of whole milk to bump my calories up when I need to.

Das ist genau das Video was ich brauchte. Danke
I moved out of my parents house about 3 months ago and we don't have a scale where I live atm. I come back home for Christmas and realize I've lose almost 10 pounds in those 3 months (from 70kg to 65kg). Now I feel terrible and this video definitely helps to get back on the right track. Keep it up
Much of the weight loss was likely due to water loss. It tends to quickly return once a surplus of calories is consumed again.
Iâm a hard gainer but put on 25 lb in the last 4 months. Although upping my meal intake to 4 a day spread out, the real gains came when I started to add little snacks in between. A hand full of nuts (200 cal), a couple of spoons of olive oil on my food(200 cal), couple of pieces of fruit and snack bar (309-500 cal). It was these extra cals that were easy to consume but supercharged my gains.
25 pounds in 4 months is way too fast, and sadly is mostly fat
Yup i agree. THANKS for simply making it easy to understand Seanđ. 1 of the few youtubers in Fitness i trust.đ„đ„đ„đ„
I missed you Sean man. Glad youâre posting semi-regularly again.
I have zero appetite and feel vomiting everytime I drink protein shake and feel full entire day and cant eat anything else. I dont know what to do.
Try vegan protein shakes. Maybe lactose (from whey) might be the issue. đ€·
See a doctor?
Do you take any medications that may have a side effect of lowered appetite? Do you drink lots of caffeine? Ever been screened for an anxiety disorder? Those all can affect your hunger drive.
Furthermore... have you tracked how many calories you eat when you aren't trying to bulk? For one reason or another, your base caloric intake could just be on the lower end.
You may benefit from seeing a nutritionist. If your daily caloric intake is exceedingly low for your height/weight and you're always feeling full, please see a doctor man.
Finally, something that I need to hear đ it seems most fitness CZcamsrs are making videos for people that are already huge or for weight loss and getting shredded. I've been shredded my entire life and I'm so tired of having no energy all the time
Just came across your channel and loving the content Sean. Too many content creators passing around incorrect info, or inventing nuances and accessory exercised just to generate content without regard for real effectiveness. As someone who has spent countless hours researching nutrition and fitness, it's relieving to find a source of knowledge I can respect and trust.
Just as a small note - having analyzed more than a few papers on protein intake as it relates to muscle synthesis, I 've found that when I followed the funding, the ones that claim high amounts of protein intake (.8-1.2g / lb of bodyweight) almost always had funding from a sports nutrition company. When I specifically tried to find only studies with academic funding, the findings were that there was no statistically significant difference in muscle synthesis (looking as trained athletes, not newbies) at amounts more than 1g / KG of bodyweight - about half the amount recommended in most other studies and commonly echoed on the internet.
In this vid you recommend the lower range of what the "standard" number is, what are your thoughts that even this is a number inflated by bias in the nutritional studies? Anecdotally I've found I make much better gains with protein levels around 100g per day (I weigh 210lb / 95kg) because trying to go over that amount makes hitting a decent calorie intake difficult without drowning myself in meat. My personal take on this is that if protein makes up too high a percentage of your calories, you aren't building muscle with the protein, you're burning it for energy.
Awesome point with tip 3 and 4 especially
Iâve been in a diet rut for the last 3 months, and the fact that I might be regressing coz I canât eat was freaking me out. This video was exactly what I needed đđ»â€ïžđđŒ
Sean knows his stuff. He warns against the dirty bulk while understanding how some junk food can help you reach your calories. An actual brain on this guy!
Thanks! Will use this in my winter bulk
Once again the best No-Bs guides for me to follow. I really struggle with the food calorie intake to make sure I ve eaten the Right amount. Amazing video Sean thanks!
Me watching this at 25% body fat: âïžđ§
Btw your editing has improved a LOT since last year. Learned a lot from doing shorts I bet. Keep it up!
i have a question/ video idea for you: On most all nutrition facts, the grams of protien, carbs, and fat, almost always add up to more than the labeled calorie count. FOR INSTANCE; 10 g protein + 10 g carbs + 10 g fat should equal = 170 calories ⊠but often the N.F. will post a calorie count less than the sum but kind of close (like 150 cal)⊠I am trying ro understand, WHY???
You get straight to the point bro I LOVE IT!!!!!!
feels like you stepped up the editing on this one, and it really shows. great stuff
I used to drink shakes that were roughly 1,000 - 1,200 cals that consisted of exactly what you recommended. Whole milk, chocolate protein powder, peanut butter, oats and bananas. Easily able to pack on about 15-20 lbs with these big boy shakes. This is all extremely helpful info, thanks Sean and hope you had a merry Christmas đ
Love those exact shakes
any specific oats? im in the process of switching to homemade shakes.
@@Nb-ko5di Any oats work, old fashioned or quick will turn out the same when you blend emâ. Glad youâre switching to homemade shakes, theyâre cheaper and WAYYYYYY more nutrient dense than the crappy mass gainer shakes.
@@raztox3050 any recommendations for the protein powder? I know I want to have milk, peanut butter, oats, and banana in the shake. Do you also recommend any shakes I could make? And how many times should I be making this and when should I drink it?
Mb for the questions I'm a noob struggling with proper diet.
@@Nb-ko5di Nah bro itâs all good donât be sorry! But personally any whey protein powder would work just fine, I personally started with optimum nutrition and it tasted good with the shakes. You can also make some protein oatmeal with it too, with bananas, honey and Peanut butter for extra cals!
Props to whoever was editing the video. Great Cutting skills
Don't have this problem but I have to watch to support you and also so I can tell my friend what to do.
Some really smart suggestions, greatly appreciated
Great video, i've a been on a deficit for 10 mounth, got to 11-12 bf (clean abs, beach lean) for the first time in my life, now i think it's time to bulk a little bit, but i'm still afraid to see the scale going up , your advices are really good tho ,thanks
Are you sure weighing/measuring yourself is that important? It sounds like you have a good grasp of how your body is doing, the focus on numbers can do more harm than good
Went to school years ago with a kid who was absolutely beyond jacked. Not just in appearence, the kid was STRONG. I was a skinny kid, 120 lbs at most, and I asked him how to get big. I was putting in the work in the gym, had a personal trainer who set me up with a diet plan and everything. I was a hard gainer supreme. The dude looked me dead in the eye and said "You need eat some more McDonalds"
Really Appreciate this Sean, it's nice to see the truth about nutrition very well spoken. You've executed this video very well. đ€
best timing of the year dude! i started bulking 2 days ago and realized its super hard. i appreciate you
I can't even eat enough to gain weight. I eat 10 pounds of food. I burn all that off in my sleep alone.
#1 tip dont get my cookbook
#2 do the opposite of what I say in my videos

I legitimately don't understand how people cannot eat 3500-4500 calories. I'm not criticizing them but my damned struggle is eating less than 2500. If I'm under 2500 for more than a few days, I'm totally wrecked
how big are you
I barely eat 2000

Excellent content as always. Midday smoothies are my go to for bulking. I also use oats or oat bran to bump up the carbs.
Iâm currently convalescing so Iâm taking the Coach Greg route and making it more like his protein ice cream to increase satiability. Smoothies and smoothie analogues are incredibly versatile.
Thats the definition of quality content đ
