>2lbs of muscle a month

You ain't gaining 2lbs of muscle a month naturally bud. And if you do, it will come with a lot of fat. That kind of growth would require the most ideal conditions possible, and that requires massive amounts of energy.

>2lbs of muscle a month

Lmao I gained like 30lbs and I'm sure only 5-8lbs is muscle

Depends on what you're willing to do. Are you currently in shape and able to power lift? Are you already at the peak of how much muscle you can have on you?

Those statues all seem to be really jacked. There must've been people that looked like that, otherwise how would the statues be so anatomically and proportionately accurate? Their cores were thick as fuck too.

I am 6'2 @195 around 7% after a five month cut. I am looking to train for powerlifting five days a week and I have enough time and money to eat,sleep, get massages, stretch etc to recover optimally.

remember that this is a glorified image of a demigod

This is probably body of their strongest/best athlete, jacked to 11.

There were guys like that but more realistically would be expect them size smaller.

And cores/legs are kinda sensible, they would glorify practical strength of warriors, rowers so legs and cores would need to be swole

Oh look, an idiot.
Ideally close to none op. Your body can put on about half a lb of lbm a week under ideal conditions so that's about 2 lbs a month.
A common mistake is thinking that gaining far more than that will give you muscle even faster but that's not true, you'll just have the half lb a week of lbm on top of all the fat you're gaining from overdoing it.
Basically 250-300 calorie surplus is literally the most efficient way to gain muscle as a natty. If you go over that, you'll gain fat that you'll have to cut out later where you could be bulking instead of cutting.

>You can expect to gain 20-25lbs of muscle in your first year of lifting
>You can't expect to gain 2lbs of muscle a month
