2000 Calorie Weight Gain Diet Plan

Posted Jul 25 2009 11:19pm

The following weight gain diet plan is suitable if you weigh in the 125 pounds range and you want to gain 5-10 lbs of muscle. If you want to gain even more lean muscle mass, you can slowly increase your caloric intake after you have reached your first goal of gaining 5-10 lbs of muscle to your frame.


The aim with all weight gain diets is to eat every 3 hours like clockwork, making sure to never skip a meal. On workout days you can also consume a weight gain shake post workout in addition to what you normally eat to help remain in a calorie surplus.

If you find that you are not gaining weight on a 2000 calorie weight gain diet plan, then eat an additional 300-500 calories, and try and get the calories from whole foods.

You don’t need to be a chef or much time to eat well. So get cooking…
