Olive Oil Gains

As long as you’re hitting your protein minimum for the day, how you distribute the rest of your macros in your bulking diet just comes down to personal preference. So if your primary fitness goal is to gain muscle but you’re having a hard time hitting your overall calorie needs for muscle building (or you just want to be more “efficient” with your intake), the simplest route is to just bump up your fat consumption. Fats contain 9 calories per gram (more than double that of protein and carbs which are 4 calories per gram) making it a very easy way to get in those extra calories for muscle growth in a much smaller volume of food. Oils, nuts, nut butters, seeds, dark chocolate, avocado, coconut milk and fatty fish are just a few examples. Do keep in mind though that you don’t need a huge calorie surplus to maximize muscle growth in the first place. A couple hundred above maintenance is usually enough to gain muscle optimally, so don’t take this advice too far or it could end up working against you. This is just a little bodybuilding tip to consider if you want a simple way to add in some easy calories to your muscle gain diet while still keeping the total amount in the proper range.
