How often should I eat to build muscle?
Without proper nutrition your workout will not be as effective as you expect
It is important to be in a positive energy balance at all times when trying to add significant mass.
By eating nutritious meals and snacks every 2-3 hours, you will ensure a steady stream of nutrients. Take special care to eat a meal of complex carbohydrates and lean protein two hours prior to weight training and a maximum of an hour after your workout.
If you are finding your appetite is poor, try eating calorie dense foods such as nuts, nut butters, full fat cheese, milk and weight gainer shakes to get the calories in, in a less bulky way.
However, as you progress with bulking and training heavily, you should find your appetite increases.
