Soda is about 10x worse for you then ice cream lol.
I've never heard of ice cream increasing blood pressure. It never has for me.
Sodium will though.
I eat the ice cream because you will gain weight and you'd be surprised what you can eat when you are trying hard and heavy AND are on anabolics.
Gaining muscle and bulking is not 100% about macro ratios. It's also about total caloric intake and ice cream is a real easy way to boost calories.
There is a ton of other ways to boost total caloric intake when bulking, but what usually works best is stuff that tastes really good lol.
I've helped more than a couple guys gain weight. I used to work with this kid that was 6'3" and about 150lbs. He told me he just wanted to weigh 200lbs. He was kinda skinny/fat build already. I told him to eat like he normally does and just try to drink a gallon of chocolate milk a day because that's basically uber cheap weight gainer.
About 2 months later he was up to 183lbs and believe it or not since we worked a fairly active job it wasn't all fat.
I'm talking about straight up bulking though. BULK weight gain. Ya take the fat with the muscle. Alot of guy's are scared to do it though. Those are also most of the guys that never get big at all because big=calories. A 250lbs moderately lean lifter is going to require ALOT of calories especially if he works an active job. And to ever get to that kinda size in the first place is gonna take calories and weight gain in the first place.
I can't tell you how many logs I have read of guys that are like 5'10", 185-210lbs and like 10-14% bodyfat that say they bulk on a clean diet of 4000 calories a day. My response is they either sit behind a desk all day or have the slowest metabolism's ever.
I've dieted down to as low as 155lbs for long distance running which is the exact opposite of my build and also dieted from 220 to 170 for rock climbing and the lowest I ever dropped my calories was around 2400 and that was too low. Infact that's the calorie intake that dropped me to 155.
Sorry, not trying to hijack yer thread glad.
