As many of you know I'm a fan of milk. We know that babies can live of it. Many question if it contains hormones. Some say it even causes androgen effects. Nevertheless, since I'm always blabbin about how its a cheap bulking source, I'll put it to the test.
OK, for all the teens here wanting to gain and say they can't, for all the skeptics, and mostly for myself here we go....
THE PLAN
I'll keep up to date posts on the journals here at MC starting Monday, and vow to drink 2 gallons (7.56L) of milk everyday for at least 2 weeks straight. There will be no gear, no supps, and I'll consume a high protein, low carb. diet as well. Training will be heavy, low reps, no cardio, 45 min. a day, 4 days a week.
Before Monday please give me your input on which Milk product to choose, any stats you'd like kept track of, times to drink, ect. Please don't give a bunch of negitive reponses if you think I'm an idiot for doing this because I already know I'm nuts. Once again I would like to know for myself and figured I'd share it with some folks here if anyone is interested. The goal is to gain muscle and strength, no cutting on this one. Here are the choices converted into 2 gallons / per day.......
1. Skim Milk

4. Whole Milk

So there it is, this outta be fun, I may never drink milk again after attempting this one. OK when you choose, please explain why. Don't everyone choose whole just to see if I blow up into a lard ass. I'll try my best but whole milk verses skim will effect my solid food consumption. Having said that, it really makes no differance to me as long as I get more results. I'm 5-9 190lbs. now, I'll post a Journal and weight back in Monday. I'm thinking the milk and 2500-4000 calories of solid food a day should yield a .5 to 1.5lb. a day gain. WISH ME LUCK!
