confused on BMR
Ok so I read the thread on bulking cycle
and got to step two
it says
If you are Sedentary - little or no exercise
Calorie-Calculation = BMR X 1.2
- If you are Lightly Active (light exercise/sports 1-3 days/week)
Calorie-Calculation = BMR X 1.375
- If you are Moderately Active (moderate exercise/sports 3-5 days/week)
Calorie-Calculation = BMR X 1.55
- If you are Very Active = BMR X 1.725 (hard exercise/sports 6-7 days/week)
Calorie-Calculation = BMR X 1.725
- If you are Extra Active (very hard daily exercise/sports & physical job or 2X day training)
Calorie-Calculation = BMR X 1.9
I work out 5 times in eight days ( id ont like to limit myself to work out on certain days)
I do
Day 1
chest calves
day 2
back traps
day3
shoulders abs
day 4
arms
day 5
upper legs, abs
usually about
16 sets per body part
rest 3 days
I dont do much cardio to speak of
I dont have a physical job
so which calculation should I use

I would go with Moderately Active (moderate exercise/sports 3-5 days/week)
Calorie-Calculation = BMR X 1.55.
Then add about 250 kcal for bulking and make adjustments from there.

i agree go with moderate, but add 500 a day for bulking, not 250

If you're working out 5 times a week, I'd go with Active. I feel moderate would apply more to a casual workout type person. That's just my opinion.
