Stop stressing toomuch about a little fat gain.
You either bulk or you don't.
You won't gain much fat if you do a clean bulk with 500 calories surplus.
But just remember that it doesn't matter how much fat you gain (keep it low tho) because you gonna get rid of it all during the cut aventually.
So either get serious on the clean bulk and stop worrying, or postpone bulking till after summer so you won't need to worry bout your six pack as much.

Don't think I'll get much better advice than that. I am looking more toward a clean bulk-after looking at the stickies, I think I can be considered in the middle of moderate/heavy to heavy. I train pretty damn hard, but not as hard as some that I know that I would consider the heavy training category. I estimate my kcal count around 3200, so I would have to up to 3700? I only eat clean foods, just went out tonight because I effed up and needed to recover with the girlfriend lol..

Doesn't really matter if you have a cheat meal aslong as you stay within your macros / calorie needs.
You're 5.9ft i think 3200 calories is all you need which has the 500 calories surplus already included.
I'm 5.6 my daily needs are 2200 so i need to eat 2700 calories for a clean bulk.
There are some formulas at the nutrion page on how to calculate your macros.
