First cycle diet question

**finaddict91** · 06-17-2014, 10:13 AM

So long story short I was really heavy for a long time. At my peak I was 320. After years of hard work I am at 215 and 12% 6 foot. Played football in college and have lifted most of my life (just turned 30). Currently I am cutting at 2500...I maintain at 2750. My diet now is tight and clean. 230 G protein 70 of fat and round the rest out with carbs and a beer now and again. Will be running my first cycle (test prop 140 eod 8 weeks) I have nolva...proviron ...letro...anastrozole. ....hcg ...on hand.

So anyways. ..what my concern is, what should I do with my intake. Obviously my body has adjusted to what I am eating with my TDEE at 2750. I'm thinking to just bump to 3250 and see what happens. I'm afraid of packing on a lot of fat as if I was not running anything if I jumped to say 4000...I would balloon up. Can I get away with the higher intake since I am on gear?

you readjust your TDEE based on your changes in BF%, weight, and activity levels.

your protein intake seems light. you will want to bump that up to almost 300 grams/day.

here is a summary of your nutrition plan that took me under 30 seconds to calculate:
(I'm assuming a moderate activity level)

and 3250 is around your break even caloric intake. to gain, you would increase that accordingly.

again, assuming a moderate activity level, which is probably right for most of us

Times Roman- Do you have that calcualtor as a stickie anywhere? Looks like you did a great job on it and I could as well as im sure others could benefit from having a tool like that. Thanks!!
