    Calorie intake on rest days?

    Hey all,

    just wondering what people take in for calories on their rest days? For example my TDEE is 3121 calories so right now I aim for just a bit above that on workout days for lean bulking. I have heard taking in too many calories on off days can lead to un-necessary fat gain. What are your guys professional opinions on this?

    I was eating close to maintenance on rest days and doing cardio to create a little deficit.
