Description
Send me a text message!Want to pack on muscle mass but confused about how many extra calories you need?Today, we're diving into a crucial concept for anyone looking to gain weight and build muscle: the 2500 calorie rule. You might have heard of the 3500 calorie rule for fat loss, which states that a deficit of 3500 calories is needed to lose 1 pound of body fat.But when it comes to gaining weight and building muscle, the equation looks a bit different. You see, muscle tissue is much denser than fat tissue, which means that gaining one pound of muscle requires a different calorie surplus than gaining one pound of fat.===> Get the FREE Muscle-Building Nutrition Blueprint mentioned in the episodeJoin me on today's Quick Wits as I break down the science behind the 2500 calorie rule for gaining weight and building muscle effectively.Or go to witsandweights.com/free for all our free guides.--“Quick Wits” are short mini-episodes between full episodes to give you an actionable strategy or hit of motivation.These mini-episodes give you practical advice on fitness, training, and mindset based on my everyday experience with clients that you can implement right away.If you enjoy these bonus episodes or have feedback on how to make them better, just send me a message on IG @witsandweights or hit me up in the free Wits & Weights Facebook community.Support the Show.?
