    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

    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
