You are totally correct protein bars and protein shakes are good ways to add calories but at the same time they work best in the 15 minutes after a workout. They do not make up for all the other meals which is the struggle for some.

On the other hand throwing down 5-7 meals is really good. I am trying to get to 6 on a regular basis but you are correct it is very hard.

It's only possible to eat so much food in a single sitting without becoming uncomfortable. I usually balance teeter totter between 5-7 true 'meals' per day. For me the best snack foods are nuts, especially raw almonds and walnuts. They're high in protein, fiber, and healthy fats, and very calories dense. I’ve always struggled with this.
