Honestly I'm not really sure. I've been hovering around 160ish (sometimes a little lower) for quite a few weeks now. I just looked at where I was and figured it doesn't make much sense to drop any...

How long would you suggest recomping for?

So would say it's better for me to stay at maintenance for awhile as opposed to being in a surplus? I'd like to get my weight up because being 160lbs is pretty light IMO.

It would take me roughly...

My bad, I was thinking of the wrong thing lol. You're right though, gotta get into that surplus.

I hear you but I just feel the most comfortable with reversing my way into a surplus haha

Yeah it definitely seems like that's where I hold my fat. Thanks though, I dropped 30+ lbs to get to this point and don't see a point to continue cutting when I don't have any muscle mass to show. It...

Alright I'll definitely bump it up then. Goal is to add no more than 2lbs/month for the foreseeable future.

If you had to guess what would you say my Bf% is?

Feel like I can't cut any lower without looking like I starve myself and honestly I'm sick of eating in a deficit. I think I've dropped enough fat to start reversing into a lean bulk. Only thing I'm...

For the first push day I do BB flat then db incline, and swap it for the second push day.

Just hit a plateau on bench though, 170 is killing me. I've always auto-regulated my training, and never...

So what I'm running right now is:

Mon: Upper
Tues: Lower
Thurs: Push
Friday: Pull

Numbers are definitely going up, it's just upper days are becoming a problem lol. If I do my benching first...

Considering tweaking things, and adding another day so I'll be lifting 5 days a week. Should I just bump it up to 3100 calories to start with?

Not 100% sure yet on the switch, but I'd rather run a...

Yeah so if I'm not around 183.6lbs in 2 weeks then I'll up calories. Out of curiosity, why 200 and not 100?

Accurate weigh ins, and to gain roughly .5lbs a week.

Looks like my calories are right on the money :)

8/18: 182.8
8/19: 182.6
8/20: 181.2
8/21: 183
8/22: 183.2
8/23: 182.4
8/24: 183
Week 3 average: 182.6lbs

Considering this honestly. Going away for the weekend so I can't weigh myself Sat/Sun but I'll take all of the next 7 days I weigh in and average them out.
Just out of curiosity, why 200-300? Unless...

Strength is definitely going up because I finally started pushing myself harder than ever after years of failing.

I see what you're saying though, I just know I only hit 182.2lbs the other day...

Started weighing myself everyday a couple weeks ago to see where I was at, and I'm pretty sure it's time to start adding calories, but I'm not sure by how much. Stats are 6'1", ~180lbs and currently...

Skinny fat here and just bulk dude, take it from me. I was dead set on cutting to a low BF% first but cals were getting ridiculously low and my workouts were tanking hard and fast.

Thanks guys I appreciate the help but I like buying bulk whey because it's cheaper in the long run

No.
