Fruit Juice On A Bulk

Q: In a question i saw that u dont recommend fruit juices in order to lose fat but only simple fruits instead.If i wanna bulk up can i drink juices ?Is it ok?Also i dont eat many vegetables but i eat many many fruits.Is it the same thing?

A: I would not recommend juices on the bulk any more than on the cut. When you're bulking you're trying to gain muscle while minimizing fat gains. You're also constantly overeating (in order to gain weight) so your body is always making decisions whether to put those extra calories into new fat reserves or into building new muscle -- don't give it an extra reason to add extra fat by feeding it with simple sugars in juices!

Fruits and vegetables are both good on the bulk, but in general you should still eat more veggies than fruits. Veggies are more mineral and vitamin-rich than fruits and fruit calories are, after all, still fairly simple sugars, compared to fiberous complex carbs in veggies. Finally, it's very easy to overeat fruits and it's very difficult to overeat veggies (except potatoes and corn maybe), so you have to be very careful when eating a lot of fruits -- you may start gaining weight too fast and just end up putting on a lot of new fat and only a little muscle.
