Yeah it's on the high end, but they have a lot of ground to gain. I stated 5K to get the ball rolling....fast. And with the food being 95% quality ingredients, not junk. A lot also depends on speed of metabolsim. A young boy like Matt is probably going to have a very high one. There's a reason he's 8 stone wet through...
Also as said it was with the idea of incorporating a heavy lifting program to gain some muscle, strength and fat quickly. Those bodybuilders already have significant muscle and so won't see the same percentage gainz. Matt as a weakling newbie can have amazing beginner results if he hits it hard.
Plus the kid does want to put some fat on for this bet, it's 'free' weight that doesn't have to be earned. If he is something like 15% body fat now then he can go up to 20-25% without looking anything close to his brother (who must be 60%+).
Matt has to account for at least 50 pounds of this challenge imo, because Jaime sure as **** won't be like a twig in 1 year. Unless he get's his stomach Jimmy Stapled
