Lately I have been talking about how if you want to look like a beast then need to start eating like one. Its not rocket science, the guy who skips meals is not going to look huge unless if he has Hershel Walker genetics or he is on drugs. I was recently able to come up with 6 tips that will psychologically help you consume more calories, here they are.
1) EAT WITH BIGGER UTENSILS AND A BIGGER PLATE/BOWL
This tip works like a charm because when your utensils and plates/bowls are bigger, you slowly get used to eating out of it and it eventually becomes normal and second nature. Next thing you know you are eating meals that are filling up the bowl and thats when you are going to start packing on some size.
When you eat out of very small plates you are selling yourself short in the sense that you are sending signals to your brain that you don’t need to eat a lot, the exact happens when you look at the photo above.
So get yourself a bigger spoon and a bigger bowl if you want to put on some size, you will thank me in the long run.
2) EAT WITH PEOPLE WHO ARE BIGGER THAN YOU AND HAVE A HUGE APPETITE ON A CONSISTENT BASIS
The same way that lifting with stronger people will make you stronger is the same way that eating with people who eat more than you will help you eat more. I just spent the weekend eating with some of my friends who weigh over 250 and they eat a lot so what do you think happened? I ate a lot too because I was around the crowd. If you want to eat big then one of the worst things you could do is surround yourself with people who skip meals.
3) DON’T PUT YOUR FORK OR SPOON DOWN THROUGHOUT THE WHOLE SITTING
I’ve noticed that its usually the skinny people who put their fork down after every bite and talk for a few minutes. I know this because I used to do this myself, I still do it until this day, but I am doing it a lot less than before. What this does is that it helps you eat somewhat faster so you can get more calories in. I feel like you get fuller a lot faster when you eat very slow because your brain starts telling you that you need to stop eating a lot sooner.
4) GO TO BUFFETS ON A REGULAR BASIS
Buffets are hands down one of the best ways to put on some size because you can eat so much and when there is that much food in your face you will take advantage because it looks so good. If you go to buffets on a consistent basis then you will finally start to understand what it means to eat a lot.
5) EAT MORE QUICKLY
The faster you eat, the more food that you can get in before your brain realizes that you are full. This is more of a bro-science tip that I got from my buddy Alphadestiny, but it works. Its just one of those things that you have to try for yourself on a consistent basis and it is somewhat similar to tip number 3 on the list.
6) EAT AT LEAST ONE DESSERT AFTER A MEAL PER DAY
One of my powerlifter buddies would always tell me: “there is always room for dessert” and he was absolutely right because the dessert looks so good that you can’t help but just make a bit room for that amazing red velvet or cheese cake.
Conclusion:
I hope that some of these tips helped you out because they have benefited me in many ways and now its just a matter of time until it all pays off.
