how's this low budget bulking diet? would it work? or it's unhealthy.. tell me your opinion..
plus i am drinking 2.5l water a day
and working out 5 times a week.. 1.5h - 2h with 20 min of HIIT in the end
180 cm / 71 kg
meal 1 - 100 gr oatmeal / 200 ml milk / 2 whole eggs / 10 grams dark chocolate 70% cacao
meal 2 - 100 gr oatmeal / 200 ml milk / 2 whole eggs
meal 3 - 100 gr oatmeal / 200 ml milk / 2 whole eggs
meal 4 - 100 gr oatmeal / 200 ml milk / 2 whole eggs
meal 5 - 100 gr oatmeal / 200 ml milk / 2 whole eggs
meal 6 - 200 gr cottage cheese / cinnamon / almonds / blueberries
total: 3300 kcal / 377 carbs / 190 prot / 117 fat
Well first of all, increase your water intake to 4-6L per day...2.5L is NOT enough.
Secondly, if you are a HARD gainer, this diet would TECHNICALLY work....it's a poor man's bulking diet....but here are some other things you can throw into the mix that are ALSO very cheap and can give you some variety of nutrition if you really can't afford anything else:
Brown rice (in place of oatmeal)
whole grain pasta (in place of oatmeal)
bananas (post workout and morning)
frozen chicken breasts (in place of eggs and/or milk)
Whole Grain Bread (in place of oatmeal)
Peanut Butter (add to bread obv lol)
