If the OP were to eat everything he could get his hands on he would simply end up gaining a disproportionate amount of fat vs LBM.... It's simply not worth it....
If the OP was to gain 2% of his body weight per month, even if 50% of that was fat that would take you 6 months to hit the 12% mark.....
That's 8.5 lbs of muscle and 8.5 lbs of fat in 6 months and your still only 12% bodyfat....
Or you could bulk up to 12% in 1 month gaining 1.5 lbs of muscle and still be sitting at 12%....
See the difference
