I'm trying to bulk up I weight 160lbs want to hit 180 of solid muscle mass. How long do you think it would take to hit that number.
I'm also going to add Tuna in there as well and before bed in going to take some Casein.
Is this a good bulk plan or is this a diet plan for most?
Thanks for your time.
