A member asked:

I am an endomorph and want to bulk up as clean as possible, should i follow a high protein and fat diet with one day of carb loading a week?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Bulking up.: Sounds good. A high protein diet along with resistance exercises or strength training will help you build muscle mass. Be sure to alternate muscle groups each day to allow for muscle recovery.
