He plays football and wrestles (and golf), and for the fall I really want him to have plenty of muscle on him to protect his inner organs and skeleton.

He should probably just stick with golf. The potential for earning good money longer is greater.
The golfers diet is very strict, but effective. I think it calls for a variety of different fast food meals each week. You need to go to different ones because getting the beef in different forms helps with fat production. Also, you want to avoid lifting weights because building muscle limits the range of motion golfers need. Also, make sure to avoid stretching exercises so that when a tournament starts out bad he can have a good excuse to not continue, that doesn't involve admitting playing poorly.
This type of commitment is diffucult, but the rewards will be great.
