Well, my normal bulk diet isn't has high as some, because I have slow metabolism and I gain fat easy. I'm about 160 now. I've been eat about 2500 a day, with 40 carbs, 30, protein, and 30 fats. When I cycle I'm going to switch that to 40, 40, 20 and start with 2800 calories a day. 2500 seems to be a good spot for me, because 3000 I was gaining fat really fast. I used to have thyroid issues, so I went from having no fat or muscle, hyperthyroidism, to gaining fat fast with hypothyroidism. Now I have that undrer control, it seems like 2500 was about right when I'm just trying to add some lean muscle. I suspect during the cycle I may need more, but we will see.
