Hi everyone, I am looking for some input on my bulk diet below. I am bulking to 190 and beyond with no specific end planned. So far everything has been going great. This is my second time working with a bulk and I decided to decrease my protein intake by 80g and increase my carbs by 80g from my first bulk. This has made my bulk much more enjoyable. I may use this as a log but haven’t decided yet. Thanks for your input!
PS: This was my first time doing any posing so cut me some slack
Info: I have been training consistently for about a year and a half. I introduced consistent dieting into my training 8 month ago. My first bulk was 4 months and I went from 174 to 189. I then cut for 3 months finishing at 167. I am 6 weeks into my second bulk following the diet outlined below. I am currently 178.
