Thanks for the input; ice cream fitness it is.

Is it possible to do a strength and hypertrophy routine?

e.g. 2 sets of heavy 5 reps + 2 sets of lighter 10 reps for every exercise.

I'm 14 and I'm 5'10" 149 pounds.

Yea fair enough, thanks for the heads up

I don't have to count macros?

Possibly due to my growth spurt since I'm only 14.

Yea, I've been bulking since January.
Started at 59 kilos, now I'm at 68.

So it's easier for beginners to gain muscle and lose fat whereas it'll take more effort for people who are a few years into the sport?

2500 calories a day

Nah it ain't cause another poster said "cause you're 14 and actually lifting" possibly implying that most 14year olds don't do weight training.

Is it rare for 14 year olds to lift?

How?

Yea, sounds about right
