height/ weight and calorire intake question( reps)

[Ericsonist]

hey guys,
Just wanted to know for a person who is 165-170cm tall what is a good goal weight to set?
around 73-78kgs? ( 160.6-171.6lbs)

And would I gain muscle if I only increase my calorie intake and not protein for example ;
Im 115lbs now and should be taking 115grams protein and around 2500 calories
What if I keep increasing my calories ( not through proteins) .
Will I gain muscle .

115lbs -115grams protein -2500calories
165lbs-115grams protein-4000 calories

?????????????????????????????????????????????
Can I do this ?

thanks In advance.

hey well Im about 168-170
5'6" - 5'7" and I weight 152, if you just up your calorie while not increasing your protein you would just gain fat, very little muscle, the purpose of a bulk is to increase calories but also your protein intake.. Forexample, I want to bulk to 170, I would then have to take 170g of protein, people however believe differently, but Ill listen to my friend who is a trainer.
This being said your 115lbs you average calorie maitence is probly about idk 2000, so up it to 2500, eat 500 calories above maitence and you should be fine.

I bumped my calorie intake up to 6,000.

The results are insane but I'm getting a little gut.

anyone else?
what should I be aiming for at 165-170cm

172 pounds?

Yes, just increasing overall calories would cause you to gain. But you should also Slightly up the protein anyway. And you're now 115? You should be "aiming" for a weight that your sister isn't before you even think about 170+
