  • Need some suggestions/ advice

    Ok I have hit my weight /BF goal. I'm down to 195, with a 35 in waist and right at 14% BF( best I can calculate) as of this am.

    I have been running a deficit for the last 6 months as I lost weight i would lower cal intake to continue the deficit. Now, best I can figure, in order for me to maintain weight my new goal is almost 800 cals a day more. And thats not gaining weight.... I have to bump up to about 2660 a day( more to gain). I have been averaging about 1800 per day. I want to take in a lot more protein. I'm figuring on upping my portions at meal time, but i dont see how I'm gonna be able to eat much more as I'm full with the portion sizes now.

    Thought of cooking up a bunch of chicken or cans of tuna and munching maybe a few times a day between meals, but not sure if I'll be able to eat right at meal time if I do that.

    thoughts, suggestions? so I guess the question is from those of you who have done it..how to bulk clean....?

    Just add clean cals bro. Use rule of thumb of 1.5g/lb of bodyweight for protein, 20% or less of your cals from fat and the rest from carbs. Increase cals to a target value and see how things go. Adjust as you go along.

    You may need to reduce the hard running if you want to grow. Keep the low impact cardio and add a day of intervals though.

      Scrum I have killed the cardio to two days a week, doing a 2 mile run one day and a power walk one day. I have also stopped the smoke sessions in the am as that was also cardio/ high energy work out at a fast pace. I am now upping the gym to 4 days a week lifting instead of 3 days a week for lifting.

      I think this is gonna be harder then loosing it was...lol

        you are just simply going to have to eat more of the same foods you been eating. instead of 6-7oz of chicken or steak eat 8-10oz. instead of 1 cup of rice eat 1 and half cups of rice. instead of 3/4 cup bowl of oats eat 1 cup. etc..

        oh and by the way, ghrp-2 will make that task very easy. i bring it up only cause you asked about it the other day.
