    Started bulking and carb cycling

    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.
    Goal: Reach 165 lbs of muscle. 15 more lbs of muscle to go!

    July 1, 2008 - 148lbs, 120lbs LBM, (started bulk)
    Feb 1, 2009 - 190lbs, 140lbs LBM, (end bulk, start cut)
    Nov 17, 2009 - 162lbs, 132lbs LBM, (end cut, start bulk)
    Aug 22, 2010 - 210lbs, 150lbs LBM, (end bulk, start cut)

    Carb cycling is meant to prevent fat gain and to keep your metabolism constantly guessing so you can use it for cutting and bulking.

    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.
