M - we still don't know your TDEE which is key, but even without it I can tell you that you'll never gain on 1500 calories a day. I am currently at 1800-1900 a day and that's my CUTTING diet - and even that's on the lower end.

Save yourself alot of wasted effort, it'll take about 1/2 hour to get a good idea of your TDEE - use an online calculator, it's better than nothing. Take that number, add 500 calories as a starting point and see how that goes for 3-4 weeks. I guarantee it'll be at LEAST 2500 calories.

gbrice75: Okay thanks
I found a online calculator, and it's says my tdee is ca. 3500 calories

gbrice75: Okay thanks

m20 - ok, not to drive you insane, but THAT sounds high! Do you have a job where you're SUPER active all day like construction, etc? Are you sure you're inputting the right activity level for you?

I am just making assumptions and obviously do not know you or your caloric needs, but unless you're a beast with a ton of muscle, I bet your TDEE is somewhere in the mid-high 2000's, again unless you have a VERY active lifestyle. 3500 might be what you need to bulk.

I would try a few other calculators, or go the long route, find the formula for either Harris Benedict or Katch-McArdle (this is more accurate but requires you know your BF%) and figure it yourself. That's what I did.

[m20]

gbrice75: Okay, i will try that.
Thanks for the help
