Thread: Feedback on suggested bulk plan?

    Feedback on suggested bulk plan?

    Hi guys,
    After deciding to bulk rather than cut at the moment I have made up a diet plan which I hope should be ok. If anyone thinks something is wrong or that I should change something, feel free to comment.

    I'm 22, 6ft1" an 186lbs so I hope I have estimated the correct starting calorie count. Also how many calories should I add and when. Some people have said 500 each week, and some said 500 each fortnight, anyone any suggestions?
    Thanks

    first off, what are your goals, do you want to bulk or cut?

    I am wanting to bulk at the moment, short term to get to about 215/220lbs although I know this takes time, and then cut. And then gradually add some more lean mass, long term to aim about 230 - 240lbs realistically.

    I agree with Phate on this and also I'd shoot for around 20g of fat per meal other than post workout
