I had to climb from 260 → 300+ for an NFL comeback, and I did NOT do it with junk food ⬇️
Monster Mash: the lineman bulk secret
✅ 3 lb grass-fed ground beef, salt + pepper
✅ 1 Tbsp avocado oil, Instant Pot sauté
✅ Brown beef, drain only if it is not 93 % lean
✅ Add 3 c bone broth, scrape browned bits clean
✅ Stir in 3 c long-grain basmati rice (or any long grain rice)
✅ Seal, high pressure 6 min, keep-warm OFF, natural release ~35 min
✅ Fluff, chill shallow, portion for the week
Why it works
✅ Protein, iron, and creatine from beef for muscle growth
✅ Rice + bone broth slam glycogen and collagen for recovery
✅ Calorie surplus without candy bloat keeps feet light
