Sport GOMAD diet for hard gainers

[ScottieDoo]

Hey guys and gals!

I'm a classic hard gainer. Can eat all day long but weight gains seem a lot harder then friends and colleagues.
I can also miss a meal or 2 and actually feel the pounds falling off very fast.

I've been testing different tips and techniques out, and the latest once I've been trying is the GOMAD (gallon of milk a day) diet.



What's peoples thoughts?

I wish I saw this thread before I typed out that whole post in your introduction thread haha. I'll copy and paste for anyone else....


Yeah, I've heard of it. It actually comes from the old "Squats and Milk" routine, where you put heavy squats into your routine three days a week along with everything else and the gallon of milk a day. It's a crazy old school routine that has the potential to put on some serious weight. A variation of it would be something like this..

Day One:

Bench - 5x5
Heavy Squats - 30 reps.
Incline Bench - 5x5
Dumb Bell Pull-overs - 3x8


Day Two:

Dead Lift - 5x5
Heavy Squats - 30 reps
Barbell Rows - 5x5
Widegrip Pull-ups - 5x5


Day Three:

Heavy Squats - 30 reps
Power Cleans - 5x5
Hack Squats - 5x5
Military Press - 5x5


And when I say "heavy" squats, I'm talking like 30 reps of 300 lbs, and a gallon of milk every day of the week. That routine is no joke haha.

And rest. Tons of rest on this routine.
