None of my bulks (lean or dirty) ever seem to result in any muscle gain, and I honestly really don't know what I'm doing wrong at this point

@jdp8858 It's hidden further down in that album, but he's eating 150.

Well, except, he's counting the outs as 10g (unless it's the rolled oats from Kodiak,) white bread as 10g, spaghetti as 22g, and then the peanut butter. None of.which carry the kind of protein used for muscle building (according to some studies...peanut butter only really has 65% of effective protein for instance. Gluten isn't very efficient for muscle building.)

He needs more chicken and fruit. I can't rag on him for vegetables much, I barely eat those either.

@jdp8858 Lack of calories? Lol what? You do realize he bulked, right?

 

[gazali]

@juanmz28 It’s not bulking if OP didn’t gain any weight in one year. So, yes it’s lack of calories

 

[giacmosuaviet]

@gazali You realize he cut after the bulk, right?

 

[juanmz28]

@giacmosuaviet People can’t read nowadays

 

[juanmz28]

@gazali Reread his post

OP here. I've updated the diet with the total protein amounts.

Thank for all the responses so far. I'll respond to everyone in about an hour.

@daughteroftheonetrueking Even though your diet sucks there should be enough protein in there to have seen at least some gains over the course of a few years.

Your training intensity is probably severely lacking. Bring down the volume and train close to or to failure, not to mild discomfort.

Also eat a vegetable bro

@daughteroftheonetrueking Eat more meat my dude. Non-animal based proteins don't have a complete amino acid profile and by the looks of it that's over half of your protein sources

 

[stratton609]

@daughteroftheonetrueking This is wildly deficient in vitamins and minerals. You're not giving your body what it needs to succeed.

 

[daughteroftheonetrueking]

@stratton609 Well, I take a multivitamin and some Vitamin D daily. Not sure if that is enough to make up for it. I'll definitely overhaul the diet either way though, just to be on the safe side.

 

[greyowl]

@daughteroftheonetrueking mulitvitamins can fill in gaps for sure, and absolutely take the D daily, but for God's sake add some fruits and vegetables to your diet. They won't kill you. Also get your Vitamin D levels tested just to see where you're add. I took 2 of those Costco Ds daily for 6 months and it only got my D levels up the bottom end of the range.

 

[stratton609]

@daughteroftheonetrueking You got this bro.

 

[notloveisnotjesus]

@daughteroftheonetrueking Where the hell do you get 105g protein bananas?

 

[mgh]

@notloveisnotjesus Your comment made me laugh even tho it's technically wrong haha

 

[quanvuttc]

@notloveisnotjesus That's the weight of the bananas, not protein grams.

 

[notloveisnotjesus]

@quanvuttc Did i really need to add the /s

 

[daughteroftheonetrueking]

@notloveisnotjesus Sorry. I missed that when I was editing to add the protein numbers. Yeah, like the other guy said, it's the weight of the bananas.

 

[juanmz28]

@daughteroftheonetrueking How close to failure did you push every time?

 

[daughteroftheonetrueking]

@juanmz28 Sorry for the late reply. I usually leave at least 1-2 reps in the tank on both barbell and accessory lifts.
