Lean bulk calories

[DanM95]

Hey guys just need a bit of advice

Im 5 foot 10 140pounds 28 years old looking to lean bulk

Do you think that around 2500-2700 the sweet spot?

Usually set my macros up to hit 1gram of protein per pound, fats I keep around 50-80grams and fill the rest with carbs.

Cheers
Dan

200-300 calories above maintenance is the sweet spot. for some people it's 3500 calories, for others it's 2700

i guess what i'm saying is that it's impossible to give you a yes/no answer without knowing your maintenance calories

Macros looks good.

For calories, pick a number, maybe 2500, and run that for 3-4 weeks. See what happens with your weight. Adjust from there.

For a lean bulk you want it to go slow, probably 2 pounds a month.

Eventually you'll figure out where you need to be.

Here was my diet in graduate school when I made my most gains. I hung out and ate with people on special vitamins.

Can of tuna.
Toast with peanut butter, bacon and honey.
Some fast food that had alot of meat.
Pizza.
8-10 oz steak and some potato.
10-12 beers.
