I have been trying to put on some weight and size this summer but havent really been sucessful. I know im hitting my macros as far as protein goes. I mean isnt really as simple as taking in your daily amount of protein, tons of carbs, and a surplus of calories? I have been somewhat dirty bulking for the past couple months and havent gained any weight. Im not just eating crap like potato chips. I have just been eating not so "clean" foods that are still high in carbs and protein such as ice cream protein shakes, peanut butter, cottage cheese, fast food, etc. I still eat a lot of good food such as oat shakes, fish, lean ground beef, chicken, and rice but I have started throwing in those "dirty" foods trying to get extra calories and im still not putting on weight.
