In bodybuilding, there is a stage during which athletes must create caloric surpluses in order to gain weight: this is the mass gain stage. At this stage, it is the gain of muscle mass that is targeted and therefore there are certain foods that must be consumed. Here, we'll give you some tips on how to successfully gain mass
Have a good diet
The basis for successful mass gain is a healthy, but calorie-rich diet. There are sites where you can find content that will help you establish the right diet plan for your mass gain. You need to eat more than you need, but you need to eat foods that contain carbohydrates, fats and protein. Foods that contain protein are meat, fish, eggs, legumes and dairy products. In addition to eating the right foods, you should also drink plenty of water. You should not only drink when you are thirsty, but at any time of the day. The essential nutrients for your mass gain can also be found in the various food supplements that you will find on the market.
Practice proper training and think about recovery
You can't make a mass gain without adapting your workouts to your diet. So please focus on exercises that will work a large number of muscle groups such as the squat, bench press or deadlift. You can do short sets. And, to avoid getting your muscles used to stress, remember to vary your routine and exercises. Your muscles take time to rebuild and to facilitate this rebuilding we advise you to rest for 3 days and to sleep well (7 to 8 hours of sleep per night). Take the time to apply these various pieces of advice in order to have a good mass gain.
