Pretty close to a cutting diet minus the more cardio days/duration. Try it out, that's all ya can do.....it can look great on paper, sh*tty in practice. Vice versa as well.

yhea i guess thats all i can do is just try it. But im confused about a few things. I dont know if i need to only have carbs in pwo and ppwo while bulking or if the way i have it is ok. I wish we still had damans version of the clean mass diet he posted. That would have been good but it got erased with the server problems and i never saved it because i was cutting at the time. Oh well i guess ill try what i have and evaluate after 2 weeks.

Your diet is similar to the diet I was on for 8 weeks. I lost only 10lbs, but went from a 34 waist to 32 waist. But still it was a cutting diet for me.

this is just a start. I will work my way up with the kcals. For now i wanna maintain the weight i have now then up them daily until i reach where i wanna be.

If you only took in carbs pwo and ppwo while bulking, I think it would be pretty hard to bulk. Everyday I have 4 pro/carb meals and 4 pro/fat meals. I would try eating carbs for your first two meals of the day, and then your pwo and ppwo meals.

try adding a bedtime meal consisting of pro/fat. it may help and prevent muscle catabolism.

the way i have it now i eat carbs 3 times a day and fat 4 times a day. I stry this out for a while then i switch it up if it doesnt work for me..
