12 DAYS OF BULKING

Can you Gain 12 Solid lbs. in 12 Days?

Once again it’s that Christmas time of year when the number twelve has extra special meaning. And while my voice is not the best for singing carols, I am pretty darn good at teaching people how to gain muscle mass rather rapidly – perhaps up to 12 lbs. in twelve days!

And while building that much lean tissue (aka, pure muscle) in that short of a time may be a bit far fetched, you can still use the (#12-themed) strategies below to push the numbers on the scale upward at a rate of a pound per day! So, if your wintertime goals are geared around bulking to your all time biggest, then this is the article for you!
