Trying to Help a Young Athlete Gain Weight With the Right Diet

[K1ngufk1ngs]

Ice cream, peanut butter, pasta.
Like a whole box of pasta a day(cheesy cal dense pasta no oil sauce crap)
Crackers and peanut butter.
Milkshakes and cheeseburgers.
He is young he just needs to slam food all day long. His parents will hate the cost that's the hardest part when training kids.

My buddy sent me this right now
Breakfast, cereal or protein waffle and eggs
Lunch, turkey sandwich, fresh fruit, yogurt, string cheese, protein bar
Dinner, salad, meat with potatoes or rice.

Sorry that's too "clean" for a kid that young if he is that small and wants to gain weight. It looks good on paper but is not near enough.
He needs more fats and more calorie dense foods. If he is cutting that's great.
More fats more carbs period

I gave him some more calorie dense options and let him know that he needs high protein and a lot of carbs. Full fat dairy product as well. I haven't spoken to him in a couple of weeks to see what the progress is. Once school is out for the year I will start working with him directly and get some pounds on him.

What a delicious set, I know my friend, who looks like 60 kg, but could manage 10 burgers at a time and stay hungry

I think for a child to eat clean, there will be a problem, it will be boring and he will not do it. Children need more sweets and joy
