There’s a lot involved in muscle gain, and eating in a calorie surplus is a big part of it. In this post, I talk about exactly how much of a calorie surplus you should be in to build muscle without gaining unnecessary fat. A common mistake people make is following the “eat big, lift big” mentality. Yes, eating in a massive calorie surplus can build more muscle, but it also builds a lot more fat.

Do you actually need calorie surplus to build muscle? Short answer: no, but a small one may help 🔬 What the data show: •Calorie deficits may impair muscle gain. Calorie deficits of >500 kcal per day impede lean mass gain and reduce basal levels of muscle protein synthesis (PMID: 34623696 & 24595305) So if you’re goal is to build muscle, a calorie deficit isn’t the best way to do it. But a big surplus isn’t likely a good idea either… • Massive overfeeding doesn’t mean more muscle. Overfeeding by

Definition this definition that. Just eat in a slight surplus of 1-200 calories. You’ll be fine. Won’t put on a particular lot of fat if any at all. Don’t overdo it with the eating, get sloppy.

Building muscle is not about a calorie surplus. Bodybuilders repeat this myth because they rely on bro-science rather than physiology. Real athletes understand that you need a protein surplus to build muscle, not a caloric one. You can remain in a calorie deficit and still trigger myofibrillar hypertrophy. Stop eating for fat gain and start fueling for muscle synthesis. | X3 Bar
