Introduction

A Reddit user, petthegoose, shared his fitness journey on the social media site. Starting at 163 lbs, he gained 42 lbs in one year with his fitness plan, which consists of a 6-day workout regimen and five meals a day.

Workout

Petthegoose's workout routine consists of: * Sunday: Rest * Monday: Chest and Back * Tuesday: Arms (Biceps and Triceps) * Wednesday: Shoulders * Thursday: Legs * Friday: Max Out * Saturday: Stretch/Rest His workout includes bench press, squats, deadlifts, and Overhead Press (OHP).

Diet

Petthegoose's diet includes five meals a day with high protein and low sugar. To stay on track, he cooks all his meals for the week on Sunday and heats them up throughout the week. Although he drinks protein bars, he avoids any product that contains whey or milk because he is lactose intolerant.

Tips for gaining lean muscle mass

According to petthegoose, consistency is essential in a workout plan. Starting with small goals helps to build momentum and avoid frustration; as new gains emerge, increase the intensity of the workout. Additionally, keep a high calorie diet, and ignore the voice that says, "you’ll get fat."

Conclusion

Petthegoose's story can inspire anyone looking for a positive change in their physique. The most important thing is to hit the gym, increase the intensity over time, and supplement it with meals that contain high protein and low sugar. Remember to stick to a plan that fits your unique needs and lifestyle to achieve success on your fitness journey.
