What's good BBForum. I recently entered a bet that I would be able to put on at least 4kg (8.8lbs) in 20 days (by Jan 26).
I'M aware that most ppl recommend a slow clean bulk (250-300 cal surplus). I intend to bulk at this rate, but just for the next 20 days I will probably be bulking "dirty" just for this gamble, and will resume the slow clean bulk afterwards.
I'm also aware/mentally prepared for the fact that most of the weight gain will/could be fat.
I thought this bet was a good idea because:
1/ I'm on a bulk anyways, so might as well (been bulking for 1 week prior)
2/ This was going to be short term bet
3/ Nice amount of cash reward if I can pull it off
Current weight: 52kg/116 lbs (after a small lunch). Gambled weight: >=56kg/126lbs
Background stats:
Male, 177cm (just shy of 5'10), 21yo, lifting for past 6 months seriously
Starting weight when lifting 6 months ago is same as current, but made some strength gains
Reasons why I think I can pull this off:
1/ Been pretty skinny for a while, so body might be really receptive to food
2/ Haven't been training srsly for too long, therefore hopefully still have noob gains left
3/ Used to be heavier some years ago (154 at 5'9)
4/ Pretty big appetite
5/ Decent access to both "clean"+"dirty" foods
6/ IK roughly what my TDEE is
Currently doing a PPL 5 days/week LP. Moderately active outside of gym (approx. min. 2 hours of walking)
My questions are:
1/ What will the muscle : fat : water/glycogen ratios of the fat gains be?
2/ Will I still look lean/have visible abs at 56kg (goal weight) @ 5'10 if I continued training during this gamble?
Ik I don't look big now, but will I look fat if I can pull this off?
3/ How long will it take for the initial water weight gains to level off?
4/ If my current TDEE is approx. 2450-2500, what is the recommended daily surplus?
TIA guys.
