calorie intake on cycle

[cowboy60]

what would you estimate your calorie intake is on a cycle compared to your intake off a cycle? include your body weight if you can.

5000 on 3000 off at 5'9" 235lbs

[cowboy60]

do you gain much fat aside from water retention on an average cycle?

[Ejuicer]

Not at all... my last bulker it almost seemed to go down. My calories are extremely clean when bulking.

how many cals do you get in on a cut?

[Zapp]

I never count calories on a cycle....just grams of protein and carbs.

you try to hit like 1.5-2 grams of protein per bodyweight? whats your protein/carb ratio?

[Ejuicer]

Roughly 2400

I almost match my 1.5-2/body weight to the dime..I dont do tons of calories, maybe sometimes close to 2000. thats about it. Just like Zapp, I watch mostly my protein intake, and some carbs..

basically the same thing. isnt it like 7cals per gram of protein and 12 per g of carbs?

4 Calories per gram of protein
4 Calories per gram of carbs
9 Calories per gram of fat

[Ejuicer]

I agree with not counting your calories. Was just giving a rough estimate as to what I take in. Usually it works out to 1.5 g per pound of weight for protein, 1/2 g per pound of weight for carbs and 60 grams of fat per day.
