The plan

The Muscle-Gain System is the controlled surplus done right: a small, deliberate calorie surplus with protein and training to match, so the scale moves with muscle and not only fat. The pace, the foods, and the checks that tell you when to keep pushing — and when to hold.

For lifters ready to grow who do not want to bury it in fat.
