So here is my method to achieving my bulking goals. You have your legume, in this case kidney and garbanzo beans and brown rice. I have also added my bowl which is more or less my portion size. 3 to 4 meals per day. Both rice and legumes are incomplete proteins however when combined they become complete and make an amazing contribution to your overall protein count. Remember protein is the building block of muscle synthesis. When you create adequate muscle hypertrophy the protein will go to work and rebuild your muscle tissues. Both brown rice and legumes are low GI carbohydrates which means they are healthy and will cause a low spike in insulin that is gradual in terms of insulin spike completion. Further to my research I can say without a doubt that entering a diet high in carbs when your body mass is lean and adding resistance training for approximately 1 hour per day does not add to your overall body fat negatively. As a matter of fact I have found that I have made gains to my body mass and maintained a very lean appearance. In theory carbs are absorbed in to the body and first stored in the muscle and as glycogen and then as body fat. If you have minimal insulin resistance.
