Food calculator accurate?
Hey guys,
I've week 7 of a 10 week bulking cycle and I'm not gaining weight as fast as I think I should. In fact, I lost weight for the first 5 weeks. My strength is still going up and I think I look better, but I don't want to be wasting time/gear.
Now at the beginning of this Gbrice and some other guys helped me put together something to start from but I've been adding 300-400 cals a week and still not there yet. My Stats are as follows...
46 yrs old
6'2"
230 lbs.
12-13% BF (lower than when I started I think)
4-5 days a week am fasted cardio, mod intensity.
5 day split, high volume
Heavy cycle that I won't go into in the diet section Test/Deca /Proviron /HCG
I was actually cutting at 3300 cals (Gbrice thought this was crazy, lol) and he suggested I try bulking at 3500 and monitor. I'm now up to 4100 cals, all clean.
My question is, what food calculator do you guys find most accurate? I use fitday and was wondering if this might be the problem? I weight everything with a digital scale so I know that's right.
Here's an example of a 4100 plus day.
4:00 am Units Calories Fats Carbs Proteins
1 scoop Casein powder 1 scoop 120 1g 3g 24g
1 cup 0% milk 1 cup 86 .4g 11.9g 8.4g

Casein Protein 1 scoop 120 1g 3g 24g
Total 4102 104g 346g 422g
Wow, that's some work!!
So what's the consensus on this? Should I jack it up another 200-300? I know I could eat another meal after 3:00 pm but I hate being full for my workout and this meal probably ends up closer to 4:00-4:30 pm anyway.
Any help at all would be appreciated.

i use fitday and i find most stuff close to the package label.
you can add custom food on fitday i have made my own with all the nutrition facts off the labels. it taks a bit of time but i eat same thing everyday so once you get most of it in all ya have to do is adjust serving sizes to maych your meals.
