Sure, I'd be happy to help you with that! Here's a workout plan and meal plan to help you reach your goal:
Workout Plan:
To build muscle, it's important to work each muscle group at least once a week, so we will have a 5-day workout plan with 2 rest days. We'll focus on compound exercises that work multiple muscle groups at once to maximize efficiency and effectiveness. Aim to complete each exercise for 3-4 sets of 8-12 reps with a weight that challenges you but allows you to maintain proper form.
Day 1: Chest and Triceps
Barbell bench press
Incline dumbbell press
Dumbbell flyes
Tricep pushdown
Overhead tricep extension
Day 2: Back and Biceps
Pull-ups or lat pulldowns
Barbell rows
Dumbbell curls
Hammer curls
Cable rows
Day 3: Legs and Shoulders
Squats
Leg press
Leg curls
Seated military press
Lateral raises
Rear delt flyes
Day 4: Rest
Day 5: Arms and Abs
Skull crushers
Preacher curls
Cable curls

Day 6: Rest
Meal Plan:
To gain muscle, you need to eat a diet that is high in protein and carbohydrates. Aim to eat at least 1 gram of protein per pound of bodyweight per day, and consume carbohydrates to fuel your workouts and aid in muscle recovery. Here's a sample meal plan with 4 meals a day:
Meal 1:
3 eggs (scrambled or omelette)
2 slices of whole wheat toast
1 cup of oatmeal with honey
Meal 2:
Grilled chicken breast (6 oz)
Brown rice (1 cup)
Broccoli (1 cup)
Meal 3:
Grilled salmon (6 oz)
Sweet potato (1 medium)
Mixed vegetables (1 cup)
Meal 4:
Greek yogurt (1 cup)
Almonds (1 oz)
Apple (1 medium)
Make sure to drink plenty of water throughout the day to stay hydrated and aid in muscle recovery. Also, consider adding a post-workout protein shake to your diet to help with muscle recovery and growth.
