Actually you dad is right all you need really are 3 meals a day. 6 meals would be over eating.

Your dad doesn’t understand proper nutrition and muscle development. It’s true that 6 meals a day is ideal if you’re trying to put on muscle, however it isn’t crucial. You can get your nutritional requirements from 4 meals. Just make sure that you’re eating more during those 4 meals so that you’re getting enough of everything.

YOU DO NOT NEED 6 MEALS. you need 3 with 2 snacks. if you want to build muscle, just increase the protein intake in those 3 meals

thats a tough situation

you have to tell your dad that when u workout.. you need more nutrients and more calories for growth and repair…

you need 1 gram of protein for each pound u weigh

approximately 20x your current body weight in calories

you need to tell him that u dont get enough calories. especially if u are very slim… your body will not get bigger and u will just break down muscle tissue.. and all the experts in the gym say this..
