    Paleo & Bulking

    Normally these two words don't go together in the same sentence, But i'm wondering..., Have any of you been able to add muscle with a strict Paleo Diet? This includes using AAS, Peptides, PH's, Supps, Protein powders, BCAAS, Etc.

    I have done paleo in the past but wasn't able to gain any muscle. I'm wondering if their are paleo diets out there that are specifically focused on 'bulking'.

    I suppose you are right. I was eating mostly chicken, fish, eggs, ground beef, veggies, almonds and some fruits.

    Take in more cals than maintance and you'll be bulking.
    Ditch the chicken and start eating steaks.

    I'd say yes for sure, considering all things are on point. Jorsn, do you have something specific in mind your trying to accomplish?

    Yeah and that was the hard part when you're eating mostly protein/fats. Red meat doesn't sit well with my stomach. I'll pick up some grass fed ground beef and eat it every other day.

    This time around I think i'll try and get more carbs in before I work out then after work out stick to protein and fats. Give that a go for a few weeks then re-evaluate from there.

    Just trying some different approaches to add some lean muscle. I honestly loved that way I felt while eating Paleo as far as energy, emotions, endurance, asthma, recovery, sleeping... It was just hard to gain muscle.

    Try adding in more fatty fish and adding olive oil and or other healthy fats to your diet.

    I have a co-worker who lost a lot of weight on paleo and swears by it. the biggest thing he feels is the lack of allergy, while following paleo. He feels great and it's not worth it to him to feel sick. If your already following paleo, then you probably already know good carb sources to add. Adding in more carbs is what I would try first. Good luck brotha.
