high 3000 cals
mod 2700 cals
low 2500 cals
pro and fat stays the same each day, carbs go up and down.
pro: 1.5g per lb body weight
fat: ~100g a day
carbs: 170g, 225g, 300g, low, mod, high respectively
see sig for routine.
Anyone have good things to say about bulking/cycling? I've read that if you stick to your diet and cycling, you'll gain VERY LITTLE fat.

great decision, i've been on just 2 serious clean bulks, one with carb cycle and the other one FULL CARB FULL CALS! NO CARDIO, totally a waste, no muscle gain but yes fat gain!. With Carb Cycle i controlled my calorie intake too and stabilize my energy levels. I'd adjust carbs according to the energy you will spend, for example on a Leg day i'd do it High carb, Arm day - low/medium carb, Off day, i'd add cardio and do it low/no carb day.
That helped me a LOT to control fat gain since i have a mediocre slow metabolism.
