Milk is built up of different proteins and fats which would support our bodies in many ways, drinking this much would surely help build bigger muscles and strength.

When? Why? How? GOMAD
You should drink one gallon of milk a day every day even on weekends and even on none training days.
One gallon of whole milk contains around 2,500 calories, 120 gram of protein, 200 gram of carbs and 120 gram of fat. This means it is roughly your maintenance calories just from drinking.
​
Will I get fat from the fat from milk?
Fat does not make you fat, excess calories consumed make you fat. It is virtually impossible to gain muscle without gaining a little fat along with it. One of the biggest mistakes men make is try and build muscle without gaining fat so they eat too little. It is impossible to gain any weight without consuming enough calories per day.
