Masstiff 2.0 · 2000g

If you want to gain weight, you have to eat. That's no secret. And if you want to gain muscle mass in particular, you need to create this calorie surplus from high-quality nutrients. How much and how quickly you are able to build muscle mass depends on various factors. In addition to genetics, gender, age, training stimulus, training experience and regeneration, nutrition plays a fundamental role when it comes to building maximum muscle mass. Most people know that an adequate protein supply contributes significantly to muscle building [1]. Zinc and magnesium also contribute to normal protein synthesis [2] [3]. Far too often, however, the reason for the lack of success in the gym is the general calorie intake.

How many calories are needed to build muscle?

Calories for muscle building are not only necessary because each kilogram of muscle mass contains around 1200 kcal in the form of muscle protein, but also because the process of muscle protein synthesis involves a high energy expenditure for the body [4]. While some people, provided they have sufficient body fat reserves and are beginners or use performance-enhancing substances, are perfectly capable of building muscle and losing fat at the same time without a calorie surplus, most athletes need to consume more calories in their diet than they use. Studies have calculated, for example, that a 100 kg athlete with 4 training sessions per week must consume a surplus of at least 6700 kcal to build up one kilogram of muscle mass [4]. Therefore, the recommendation for optimal muscle building is to consume around 20 to 40 percent more calories than you need [5].

Are weight gainers an alternative?

Many athletes find it difficult to consume these amounts on a daily basis. Weight gainers are therefore a popular method of providing additional calories in liquid form alongside everyday food. They usually consist of a mixture of carbohydrates and proteins in powder form which, when mixed with water or milk, provide a quick, drinkable snack with lots of calories. The problem, however, is that most such products on the market rely on cheap and inferior raw materials or are unable to fulfill their purpose. Often, cheap carbohydrates such as maltodextrin or destrose are used, which paired with inferior soy or wheat protein are anything but a high-quality meal. Other products try to do better and rely on oatmeal as a complex carbohydrate, but without considering that the shake ends up being far too filling to effectively increase calorie intake.
