    Carbs will not get you fat if your eating clean and consistant.

    You say when you are natural, but you still have not done your first cycle. Guys are trying to give you advice but you seem to get a bit defensive. Listen to what they have to say then you can make your choice.

    agreed, although some people are more "carb sensitive" than others. unless you are an ectomorph and have an impossible time putting on weight thers no need unless your BMR + Activity demands that many kcals. me, as an endo-meso, my calc bmr is just about right when it comes to calories. and yea OP, listen.... youll regret it if you dont

    I see alot of guy blow up but they look like shit because they are taking in 6000cals and 500g of carbs a day....doesnt make alot of sens to me.

    Yeah I dont mean to come off as a dick but its just what I think...honestly alot of guys over feed their bodies. When I first started bodybuilding I would "bulk" which I dont even beleve in any more because IMO there is no reason to go over 12% bf year round....its all about nutrient manipulation. I read alot of charles poliquin and john berardi's stuff and threw away all of my old thought on how things should be dont....IMO the whole eat massive amounts of carbs and cals is not the best way to do things at all!

    The avg person burns 10 cals per lb of body weight a day if they wer to do nothing...just sit all day.

    the avg athlete when bulking should take in around 20 cals per lb.

    so me taking in 4000cals is around 25 cals per lb.

    that should be more then enouph to make solid gains with no fat gain.
