Easy changes you could make to add cals. Got to eat big to get big and your diet was nearly absent of fat.

For the cycle. You should have waited but now that you are doing it finish it. Just don't waste it by not eating big or training hard.

Swap out the chicken breasts for legs and thighs to up the fat cals a bit. Cook everything in butter or coconut oil. Increase portion sizes.

I added some almond butter to my shake post workout, ate fried chicken today from KFC lol, dad called and talked me into going. eating pizza tonight with the kiddo. Since I been eating so clean I'm gonna dirty it up a bit. I've never even tried almond butter, hell I like that better than peanut butter now that I tried it. My shake tonight after workout was 1 scoop protein powder, 1 banana, cup of blueberries, 2 scoops almond butter, and 3 scoops greek yogurt.

Breakfast I ate bowl of kashi go lean, 4 whole eggs and 3 egg whites, 2 pieces of wheat toast, half a bowl of oat meal.
Then I went to kfc, came home took a nap, ate a protein bar, drank 2 glasses of chocolate milk, had a glass or orange juice this morning, and drank a pepsi today. First soda i've had in 3 weeks lol.

Not sure on the calories. I'd have to go back in emails and see what the "expert" said. I'm not going to attempt to go add them up. lol Not enough is the answer

Hopefully Spongy will get in here & add his .02. Nothing wrong with adding a few dirty cals since your 163lbs IMO. If you wanted to track your cal, which can be useful. You could use an app like my fitness pal. I used it for a couple of months just to see what I'm doing as far as cals go. I found it to be helpful.

cool, I will take a look at that app. I'll try to keep up with it on an app. I was at 170 not long ago, that was cheating on the diet eating kinda dirty though. When I got strict on the diet, seriously I cut, started seeing abs. So yea, seems like I have a good cut diet going lol. I was up to 175 at one point. If i add a few dirty calories I should be able to get to 185 then cut. May go to 190 and then cut Idk, just depends on what I think I look like when I get there, and the bf%. I Don't want to get to 25% bf though. I'd like to keep it under 20.

Under 20% bf....really? Maybe its just me, but this is counter productive and unnecessary. Just bulk cleaner. The more fat you gain the harder the cut and possibly more loss of lean mass. Its really not that hard to stay lean especially on cycle. Also, I personally like seperating my carbs and fats. I stay a lot leaner that way. Eating super clean/strict on a bulk is hard but I think its worth it. I stay under 10% that way. Just gotta say fuck it*and*slam down a lot of chicken and rice haha which can be hard once the cals get high.

I've never been at 10% in my life. 13 is about as low as I have been. Those pics I'm at about 14-15%, I think that's pretty good for a bulk. I'm not saying I want to get to 20% by any means. I'd honestly rather not get about 15%. I'm still learning, and it seems like everyone has different views on shit. There's no right answer it seems, but seems everyone says everyone elses answers are wrong. SO not any right answers but tons of wrong ones huh... Nature of the beast lol
