Drink shakes and try having every meal in 2-3 hrs of gap then its easy.

pharma helps greatly...but with being said shakes and finding food your body can process quickly and offer the most bang for buck regarding your required macros

best of luck and start slow DO NOT JUMP 1K-2K cals and expect not to blow chunks at the gym or at work lol

Best advice I can give and in my experience it’s about finding foods you tolerate(both mentally and physically). Easy to prep, easy to digest, easy to eat again. And again. And again. And again.
It’s all about repetition and consistency.
That and working up over time.
Jumping from 3000 to 5000 all at once is doable but miserable and will only add on less than desirable tissue.
I started out at a maintenance of around 2800 calories and worked up to 3600 or so over about 18 months.

I use to have a hard time eating. Best way is to get a large varsity of food. Plus you don’t have to eat completely clean. Sometimes you think you are full after eating but then you see something you really like and then all of a sudden you’re hungry again. Stay away from greasy foods. When I eat chicken wings for the air fryer I can eat 15-16 wings but out of a deep fryer I can only eat 8 or so. I can eat a steak and I won’t be hungry for 6 hours but if I eat a pound of fish I’m hungry an hour or so later. Some stuff digests fast

Bro 5000 is insane, you don’t need to be in that much of a surplus unless you’re seriously underweight , I think the huge guys just like to brag about their cal intake coz the bigger they are the more cals they can handle

A smoothie will help you with your calorie intake. In the morning, I make a shake with fruits, milk, oats, and other ingredients. It comes out to about 1000 calories. Two hours later, I’m hungry again and can easily have another one of those shakes.

Blend and drink everything.... Add plenty of penauts and seeds, oats, whole eggs, red meat, butter and Milk. Avocado, olive oil and youghurts these are all healthy high calorie options. My personal cheat code to consume a lot of high quality calories is mixing following ingredients together, splitting into two shakes, one as my snack at about 10:30, another after my workout, about 1:30 before my dinner.
Ingredients :
100g whole oats
50g mixed seeds
50g nuts of choice (change them regularly to get the most benefits, they're full of minerals and antioxidants)
400g anabolic mass gainer
1000ml whole milk
Only these two shakes are 3k+ and I inhale them with ease.

Asside from that, I eat 6-8eggs a day, with a bread and bacon, two real dishes (lunch & dinner ) with red meat or fish, load of rice, pasta or potatoes, everything with some oil on it.

P.S. I also eat burger with fries and a beer or a pizza at least once every two weeks Putting them calories in is easy. But as good guys bellow already mentioned, nearly no-one actually needs 5000+Kcal a day to grow. More important is quality of nutriments and to have enough protein to support growth.

Its not that hard if you have full fat products, whole fat yogurt, whole milk, cheese, etc.

5000 cals is an insane amount of food....how big are you?

I'm not a big eater so I'm not even close to eating that many calories. I will tell you this, a 200 pound man can indeed grow from eating a gram of protein per pound of bodyweight with supporting calories, as I've seen this many times. Like Brby stated below some folks can grow eating way less than 5000 calories and I am one of them for sure. Just no way I'm consuming 5000 calories clean or not, regardless if I'm drinking and eating combined.

Well, first off most bodybuilders don't eat 5K. The really big pros, yes, but they have the metabolism and lean mass requirements that require them to do that. The 99% rest of us don't. All eating that much will do will cause you to become insulin resistant right away and just get fat. Small spurts at that level would be fine, but you have to watch your insulin and cycle binges like that. Also, it is a lot easier to drink all those cals than it is to eat them.

I use mk677 in off season. But bulking can be tricky. If you don’t monitor your fasted glucose daily you’ll get fat as hell and or become diabetic . Some people can grow eating 3000. 5000 can be an overkill. Best recommendations is eat what you can without forcing yourself. Slowly titrate the calories comfortably

I hit 4,000 pretty easy but alot is liquid calories and alot is carbs. For me its to many carbs so I need to up my protein and drop the carbs and still get that many calories, now thats the hard part. Hitting 5,000 isnt hard, its hitting 5000 CLEAN.

I’m pretty sure they use their mouth, LOL

There are a lot of factors involved in this, it always helps though if you have a great appetite to begin with, without even needing to train to increase it. Look at all the obese people in the world who sit on the couch all day who can eat tonnes of food. Then how long your training sessions are, how active your day job is, steroids hugely increase food intake as long as you take the right ones. Pretty much all the guys at top level are able to force feed and actually need to to keep the bulk and weight they have. Have a look at some of the Larry wheels videos on youtube of him force feeding to stay at 300lbs - they are painful to watch lol

I'm no BB but when on cycle I'm around 3500+.
It's not too hard as a good portion is in the form of shakes lol. The trade off is hitting the bathroom a bit more.
