Build Muscle with High-Protein, Nutrient-Dense Meals!
Create a calorie surplus and fuel your workouts with meals packed with protein and nutrients. Use our menu to build a plan for maximum muscle growth.
Understanding a Calorie Surplus:
To build muscle, you need to consume more calories than your body burns. This is called a calorie surplus. The extra energy supports muscle repair and growth after workouts.
Meal Timing for Muscle Growth:
Eat 5-6 Meals Daily: To optimize muscle growth and recovery, aim to eat every 3-4 hours. This ensures a steady supply of nutrients to your muscles throughout the day.
Pre-Workout Fuel: Choose a meal with carbs and protein (e.g., a 6 oz or 8 oz protein plate with a full cup of carbs and veggies) 1-2 hours before your workout.
Post-Workout Recovery: Have a protein-rich meal or shake (e.g., Protein Oat Shake or Muscle Max Munchies) within 30 minutes of exercising to jumpstart recovery.
How to Use Our Menu for Muscle Gain:
Prioritize Larger Portions:
Our 6 oz protein plates come with a full cup of carbs and veggies, providing the energy and nutrients needed for muscle growth.
For even more fuel, choose our 8 oz protein plates, which are ideal for those aiming for enhanced recovery and gains.
Add Calorie-Dense Options:
Include Overnight Oats, Muscle Max Munchies, or additional Protein By The Pound to hit your daily calorie and protein targets.
Spread Your Meals:
Order enough meals to eat 5-6 times daily, ensuring each meal contains a balance of protein, carbs, and fats.
Tips for Success:
Track your calorie intake to ensure you’re in a surplus.
Stay consistent with your meal timing to maximize recovery and growth.
Pair your meals with a solid training program focused on maximizing hypertrophy.
Use a smart fitness tracker to determine your daily caloric output.
