You will need to figure BMR then your TDEE before you can come up with general numbers to answer your question.

Many great resources on this site.

A few hundred calories over your TDEE (which you can calculate here http://forums.steroid.com/showthread...e#.TqG_TJviHBI ) is all it takes to add lean mass. This is assuming you give your muscles a reason to grow... i.e. proper training.

Notice I said add lean mass. If you want to bulk in the traditional sense (add a bunch of fat in the process of adding a bit of muscle), then there's no set caloric rule - people just eat tons of food with little regard. That is not how i'd go about it however.

Good luck, keep us posted.
