Off Season “Clean Bulk” Meal Plan
This is the meal template my athletes follow to add quality weight after the season is complete. We don’t want to gain weight just for the sake of moving the needle on the scale - we want to grow and add muscle.
If you feel that you are gaining excess body fat, limit portion size and possible omit the bedtime snack.
