I'm going to attempt a lean bulk and see how it goes. I'm trying to do it as clean as I can without sacrificing potential muscle mass. I'm also doing a test/deca cycle with it, my second cycle. I'd like some opinions on what I'm planning. I've cut wheat completely out of my diet as a bit of an experiment from an article I read.

My main question is, am I taking in enough carbs on cycle to grow? I know 3800 cals isn't alot for bulking especially on cycle. I'm going to be gradually increasing my cals week by week but when I do where should I be increasing them? What should I have my cals up to ideally when I'm done my gradual increase? 4500?
