Marshall wants to gain 30 pounds–mostly muscle. What are the recommendations for gaining weight?
What will be an ideal response?
To gain weight, Marshall needs to consume more kilocalories. He needs to add nutrient-dense snacks (nuts, juice) between meals. He needs to increase portion sizes at meal time. Adding at least 500 kilocalories to his daily energy intake would enable him to add about a pound of extra body weight weekly. To ensure that he does not gain fat, he would need to add resistance exercise to build muscle mass.
