The first step to getting big is to really believe that becoming massive is possible. You have to accept the idea that you, too, have the privilege of being huge. Forget about genetics and body types. Set your own personal goals and work as hard as you can toward achieving them. The mind always gives up before the body. Remember that. If you have doubts, if you don't really believe, then you will fail. You create your own limits.

Making a radically change to your body can not happen by just eating three or four times a day. Breaking your energy consumption into more frequent meals is a proven method to increase nutrient absorption, and aid muscle growth and recovery. Although you must consider types of calories you consume, you can't simply eat more food and expect to get bigger; too much refined sugar and fat and not enough protein could add more body-fat than muscle.

Shown below are diets that could be used by either male or female, who are looking to gain bulk muscle mass. Substitutions of certain foods are acceptable, if they're in the same food group and roughly the same categorized gram and caloric count.
