How Many Extra Cals When in PCT?

[Mr. Small]

When a cycle is complete and it's PCT time, how many calories do you add to your daily intake?

That was a good read

[Mr. Small]

Anyone got a figure? e.g. 200 cals of carbs?

Where were cals at during the cycle?

[Mr. Small]

I didn't cycle just yet, another 2 months. Just gathering info atm.

I think my cals will be 300-500 above TDEE on cycle though. So should PCT cals be the same as that or even higher?

I'd keep them the same, but monitor. Caloric overage is caloric overage. Gear will help with feed efficiency, but you shouldn't need to increase cals during PCT. In fact, I'd back down maybe 100 cals weekly, assuming you're planning to maintain for a bit post-cycle. This should put you back around your TDEE at the end of PCT.
