I'm trying to get into bulking and I was wondering how much per month do you spend on food, supplements, gym member fee and ect. Also what kind of things do you guys recommend buying or doing to save money costs? Alright appriciate the help guys. Peace.
"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"
She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.
The cost of bulking?

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

Me, being in HS. I go to workout in our weight room after school, it free and I can get advice from coaches.
I spend about $200 a month on food I buy to eat/cook at home. Then a very rough figure for how much restaurant food I eat a month (and the occasional late night Taco Bell/Wendys/pizza sh!t I periodically have two or three times a month) would be about $270 or $280.
My gym membership is $35 a month, and I usually go through two canisters of Muscle Milk a month so that's about $32ish right there. I'm not really down with any of the supplement sh!t other than taking in more protein, so that's why I spend almost nothing in that area. I'm sure others will disagree with that and take a bunch of other crap, but protein is all I've been taking for the past couple years and that's been enough for me.
So my total "bulk cost" per month (including gym membership) is around $270 + restaurant dinners..brings the total to $550 a month on everything. It's pretty pathetic that going out to eat dinner 3 times a week doubles the total. Oh well, what am I gonna do? Go out less and cook more? Hah. :nono:
Oh and...here's a list of the sh!t that ends up in my shopping cart every month (most of this I buy once a week):
Apples mangos pears pineapples...(1 or 2 of each)
Pack of bananas strawberries or blueberries
Low fat yogurt (about 6 cups per week)
Milk
Orange Juice
24 pack of water
Container of egg whites
Loaf of whole wheat bread
Rice
2 or 3 various cans of soup
Ground beef (lean)
Chicken breast
Salmon/mahimahi (the only two fish I'll eat)
Bag of cashews or almonds or walnuts or other nuts
Box of noodles
Lettuce/cabbage
Potatoes corn tomatoes brocolli coliflower
Cottage cheese/cheedar cheese/swiss cheese
Oatmeal
Cereal (Special K or Total)
Bag of pretzels
Peanut butter (not talking about the sugarless kind either)
There are a few things I listed above that I'd probably be better off without but...f*ck that. You've got to live a little too.

You gotta remember that half the money you spend on food isn't really a 'bulking cost' since you'd be buying food anyway.
I save a hell of a lot by having my own equipment set up at home, so saving on gym membership. I've got 2 benches, barbell, 2 dumb-bells, around 200kg of weights plus other bits and pieces (arm curl bar etc) all put together for around £100, cos I got a load of stuff cheap 2nd hand.
Its well worth doing if you're trying to cut costs.

"She's Out of Your League"
You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.
The most expensive food is probably the chicken.
Depending on what supplements you use it can get quite expensive. I currently use ON 100% Whey which is about $30 a month and I am just about to start NO-Xplode which is about $45 a month plus multi's and fish oil. There are cheaper whey alternatives but ON is rated the best by bb.com and it has a great taste
