Bodybuilder Wesley Vissers is making sure his nutrition doesn’t hold him back when he makes his return to the stage. In a recent YouTube video shared on December 1, 2024, he walked fans through his 5,046-calorie full day of eating as he bulks up in the off-season.
Wesley Vissers has become one of the most promising contenders in the Classic Physique category, thanks to his golden era look, shape, and aesthetics. Despite being counted out, he won the 2024 Arnold Classic US against former titleholder Ramon Queiroz. But Vissers didn’t stop there. He proceeded to claim gold at the Arnold Classic UK show as well.
However, when it was time to present his best on the 2024 Mr. Olympia stage, he missed the mark. Instead, he found himself in eighth place while Chris Bumstead went on to win his sixth and final Classic Physique Olympia title. Committing to his latest off-season, Vissers is determined to add quality muscle mass with adjustments to his diet.

“This is the push phase, the off-season to make progress for the next competition.”
Morning Protein Shake
- 40 grams of whey Isoclear
Meal 1 – Post-Workout
- Intra Workout
- 170 grams of rice pudding
- 6 grams of Speculoos flavor
- Psyllium husk
- Salt
- Cinnamon
- Dark chocolate
- Frozen fruit
- 75 grams Iso Whey from Whey concentrate
- 50 grams of Designer Whey
Vissers prefers to start his morning with the biggest meal of the day.
“The ultimate combination after a workout, you should have then your biggest meal with the most carbohydrates and also plenty of protein to have that combination of energy and building blocks to actually progress from your workout.
As today was a leg day, the most important workout day of the week, so that’s when you need the optimum nutrition.”
Meal 2 – Victory Muffins
- 200 grams liquid egg whites
- 1 whole egg
- 100 grams Quark (Similar to Greek yogurt)
- pumpkin
- 5 grams baking powder
- 9 grams Designer flavor powder
- Stevia
- 110 grams Rice flour
- Ceylon cinnamon
- 50 grams of whey
- 45 ml water
- 100 grams strawberries
Vissers enjoyed his ‘Victory Muffins’ after his morning leg day routine.
“These are the exact same macros as my victory breakfast usually. So normally I would have this as a breakfast but now I’m having it as a post post-workout meal. So the meal after the post-workout meal.”
Meal 3 – Pulled Beef, Rice, and Veggies
- 150-200 grams of vegetables (Celery, Mushroom, Bell Pepper)
- 2 grams Salt
- 100 grams cooked white rice
- 234 grams of beef
- 1 cup blueberries
- Potassium salt
His first meat protein of the day was beef, which he combined with rice. Fiber is a top priority for Vissers, so he tries to have fruit throughout the day, regardless of whether he’s in the off-season or contest prep.
“A nice and savory meal combined of course with the blueberries but this is one of the very easy-to-digest meals that I have every single day at least twice a day to make sure that my off-season goals will be achieved. One more little secret I like to add is, well normally, we have a sauce like this or I’ll usually mix it up with a teriyaki sauce.”
Meal 4 – Chicken, Rice, and Veggies
- Chicken
- Salt
- Spices
- 150-200 grams Mixed vegetables (Zucchini, Yellow Bell Pepper, Broccoli, Cauliflower)
- Mandarin
- Kiwi
- 100 grams rice
His next chicken, rice, and vegetable meal kept him satiated after hitting legs earlier in the day.
“In the meantime [while it’s cooking] I like to drink a lot of water during the day. One thing that helps me drink a lot of water is this, the ultra syrup by ESN,” he shared.
Meal 5
- 200 grams liquid egg whites
- 1 whole egg
- 100 grams Quark (Similar to Greek yogurt)
- pumpkin
- 5 grams baking powder
- 9 grams Designer flavor powder
- Stevia
- 110 grams Rice flour
- Ceylon cinnamon
- 50 grams of whey
- 45 ml water
- 100 grams strawberries
His final meal was a copy of his ‘Victory Muffins’ recipe.
“For now, I pretty much macro-matched that meal with these muffins. Now the word muffin might sound unhealthy but as you can know and as you saw previously, the ingredients are pretty healthy anyway.”
