Mostly clean with some fast food is better than 90% of America. Don’t worry about it. Just lift hard.

As long as you’re hitting your macros, you’re good. For example, if your BMR was 2,250-2,500 calories, you’d want to consume 2,750 calories, and the corresponding macro breakdown would be 200g protein, 350g carb, 60g fat.

You can get these macros from anywhere, but the benefit of getting them from clean foods would be as follows; mental clarity, improved focus, better memory, healthier skin, better hygiene and an overall improved sense of well being.

No, there's really no such thing as clean eating. Layne Norton has a great video on it. Basically it's IIFYM, but make sure you are getting enough protein.

Junk food tends to be high in sugar which isn't very satiating. Eat what you like, and can stick with.

I happen to like keto because I'm almost never hungry while cutting. Outside of that the most important thing for diet (either way) is consistency.

‘Clean’ bulk doesn’t really fucking mean anything. You’re more likely to adhere to your surplus if you eat shit you wanna eat within your calories, but 80/20 rule applies (clean/junk), clean foods obviously have the added benefits of satiety, vitamins, fibre etc

Clean eating will mean something different for everyone, but yes, it can matter. Eating healthy will mean benefits like better sleep, less inflammation in your body, etc, which will help with your muscle growth and repair. For instance, I see people taught peanut butter, but too much Omega 6 fats in relation to Omega 3 could cause inflammation, and inflammation leads to a bevy of problems in the long run.

A can of sardines and an avocado is a great quick snack and easy to carry around.

their is a difference even if the calories are the same amount. clean food always wins. quality is always better. i notice a difference in everything being more clean eating. even if im hitting the same proteins and everything.
