I saw where Rogan interviewed Bradley Cooper and Cooper talked about filming American Sniper. He said when he first signed on he weighed about 185, which was much smaller than Chris Kyle. He hired a nutritionist, who put him on a 6,000 calorie diet--half protein, fat and carbs, half shakes. He also hit the heavy weights pretty hard. He said in a matter of months he was up to 235 pounds. That's 50 pounds in a few months. If Bradley can do that, GMac can surely put on 25 to 30 by next fall.

The average body doesn’t do this. Cooper has prob done this on and off for his whole career. With that frame of GMAC I’d bet you’ll be lucky if you see another 10.

well that and an actor gaining 50 lbs is far different than a SEC athlete needing to gain weight. aint no CGI when a 260lb DE is coming at you with 4.5 speed on your blindside.

Not sayin it ain't good, but biscuits, red-eye gravy is #1.

BTW, the Crack doesn't have red-eye any more.

Grew up on red eye gravy. Both grandma's made it, mom made it, aunts made it.

Really long story short, to this day every time I try to make it I f it up. Lol.

Since people are sharing snacks and tips I bill bite. (See what I did there?)

Every person is different, but I could see GMAC gaining significant weight and strength following something like this:

A Protein Shake and Corn Meal Mush before morning workouts. Another protein shake mid-day with whatever lunch is prescribed, and perhaps another shake following evening workouts on 2-a days which Tennessee apparently does.

Corn meal mush is made by microwaving or boiling cornmeal in milk. Add butter and salt or sugar according to your preference. It offers significant benefits for weight lifters, primarily by
providing a high-energy, easily digestible carbohydrate source to fuel intense workouts and accelerate recovery. It supplies complex carbohydrates, fiber, and essential minerals like magnesium and iron, which support sustained energy levels and muscle performance.
Key benefits of corn meal mush for weight lifters include:
  • Pre/Post-Workout Fuel: The high starch content provides quick energy to power through sessions and replenishes glycogen stores afterward.
  • Energy and Performance: Cornmeal provides sustained energy, preventing fatigue during training.
  • Mineral Support: It contains magnesium, phosphorus, and manganese, which are crucial for bone health and the breakdown of carbohydrates and fats for energy.
  • Nutrient-Dense & Affordable: It is a low-cost, gluten-free, and nutrient-packed option that aids in overall digestive health due to its fiber content.
For optimal results in muscle growth, it is recommended to pair cornmeal with a complete protein source, as it is not a complete protein on its own.
You can also make Also salmon or tuna patties which consists of mixed canned salmon or tuna, egg, crackers, rolled in cornmeal and cooked in olive oil for about 15 minutes.


Also, not sure if football players take supplements. Cycles of creatine. Preferably on cycle during the season for additional strength and stamina. I take it year round but they say when you are young you don’t want your body to get used to not producing it on its own, so it’s important to have off cycles. As you get older, your body can use all the help it can get.

16 oz of water every two hours.

Electrolytes packs right before workouts.

Vitamin and fiber rich dinners per nutritionist.

I had plateaued for over half a year in strength. Then I stated eating corn meal mush as an evening snack (wrong time to eat it but whatever) and have noticed considerable strength gains and rather suddenly. This stuff works.
