How does this solution sound?


I am currently bulking, and i got to college 4 days a week. But the problem is, on wednesday and thursdays, i have 2 classes. My 1st class is over and then 10 minutes later, another class.

So instead of going 4 hours without eating, i take a serving of n-large 2 shake after my 1st class which has 580 calories, 52 grams of protein 70 grams of carbs.


i only get 10 minutes between class and this is the best i can come up with. If anyone else got better solution, plese let me know.

Please dont sugggest MRP, those things are way to expensive. N-large cost me about 1.00 $ serving.

You only have 10 minutes and are getting that much nutrition in that time - looks like a good choice. Hopefully the carbs aren't sugar.

If you are not able to eat during class this would be the best choice with some fruit or cold vegetables ie some brocolli. I would also take it in milk if possible.

The carbs are maltodextrin so basically sugar which is why i suggest the veggies and milk.

Tuna/chicken sandwich on whole wheat and an apple. Either buy a small cooler that'll fit in you bag or some of those small plastic wrapped ice cube things to keep it cool (but over 2 hours cool will only be for taste not spoilage).

Supplements have thier place but real food is ussually better/cheaper

I agree... depending on the class structure you can eat in there if its a big lecture hall and you could eat a tuna sandwich on the way to class anyway.

Ensure you count the cals though . It is hard to get a sandwich with over 500cals without a lot of undesired mayonaise so you may be dropping calories. Watch out for this and maybe supplement the difference with olive oil

You can buy hearty bread that's higher-cal and also use spreads made from olives, avacadoes and other high-fat (good fat) veggies.

Peanut butter and honey on a meaty multigrain roll can get you upwards of 450 cals, too.
