calculator calorie food free
If you’re a hardgainer, (see our free hardgainer tips) one of your biggest problems with gaining weight is food intake. Food intake is your #1 way to put on weight. If you don’t eat enough food, you won’t make any gains, no matter how hard you train.
Because of this reason, it’s a great idea to follow a simple eating plan, so you can gain weight.
Before I hook you up with a free eating plan, you should know that if you would really like to make gains, you will want to keep your eating plan simple. This means that you really only need to pay attention to caloric intake, and if you would like to be a little more healthy, the food pyramid, as well.
Counting calories and following the food pyramid is the best way to make gains. (Obviously, you will need to do weight training, too.) But right now, we’re here to talk about your hardgainer eating plan. By the way, feel free to track protein, carb, and fat intakes, but know that from my experience, the more complicated the diet, the less likely you will be to actually follow it.
EATING PLAN TO GAIN WEIGHT.
For your eating plan, you will be
- Tracking calories.
- Following the food pyramid. (somewhat)
In order to make gains, you will want to use the calorie calculator below, to see how many calories you need to consume on a daily basis, to gain around 1 pound per week.
Example 1: A 20-year-old, 6-foot tall, 150-pound male, who’s extremely active, would need to consume 3380 calories a day to maintain weight, and 3880 calories a day to gain 1 pound per week.
Once you know how many calories you must consume on a daily basis, to gain 1 pound per week, you will be able to break those calories down into meals.
Example 2: The 20-year-old male, who we discussed in example 1, will need to consume 3880 calories per day to gain 1 pound per week. We then take the number of calories divided by the number of meals he will eat a day (6). 3880 / 6 = 646 calories per meal = 3880 calories per day, and 1 pound per week.
You will do the same thing as I have done in the two examples above. You will then be consuming your recommended number of calories every meal, to gain 1 pound per week.
By counting calories, you will make major gains.
Early on, try not to worry too much about eating healthy. Don’t get me wrong, you don’t want to be eating McDonalds just to put on the calories. At the same time, you need to know that in order to get big, you will have to eat big, and occasionally eating unhealthy foods is okay. Still, I recommend following the food pyramid.
But remember, after you make your gains and get up to the weight you desire, it will be extremely important to clean up your diet, (while still consuming a good amount of calories), so you can tone up, but maintain your desired weight.
Also, as you make gains, you may find that your weight gain slows. If this occurs, input your new information, (weight, activity level, etc) into the calorie calculator, and repeat the process, to learn how many calories you will need to consume on a daily basis, to once again make gains.

Brad is going to try to consume as many calories as he can in those 3 minutes, while Craig is going to see how many calories he can burn off in that same amount of time. In 3 minutes, Brad consumed approximately 1000 total calories, while Craig burned only 43 calories. Cardio loses against diet.
