The whole point was to keep carbs low
That's really the lowest I can get it too for now

If it works for you then good luck with it. One thing I would change personally is the milk. 7 cups seems a lot and is the majority of your carbs. Id switch a few cups to oats, bread, pasta etc. to get your fiber up if your not taking any fiber supps while still keeping your carbs down.

You are bulking...the whole point of bulking is to gain lean tissue...in order to gain lean tissue you need a ton of carbs.Originally Posted by giantsfanftw

Well I'm not doing any cardio and I have tried a 30/30/30 split and it seems that it usb't working anymore. So I though I'd try a new apporach.

I'd try a little lower fat and more complex carbs. And don't skip out on cardio, its good for u. I personally am bulking right now but I am a distance runner so my macros are about 60/20/20.

292protein you're taking in way too much protein- if you can afford it, then by all means, but a lot of it will be wasted, guaranteed. you weigh 188, and that's not 100% muscle...
(yes, i know, i only weigh 157, what do i know, right?)
