Bulking.....How clean do you eat?

[andezzz999]

I carry about 14% body fat, so I feel I am bulked enough. I really want to get down to 9% bf. I eat about 2400 calories a day with a ratio of 50% protien 40% carbs and 10% fat.

I eat clean.... for the most part.

Meal 1: Oatmeal w/non-fat milk

Meal 2: Protein Shake

Meal 3: Can of Tuna, cup of Brocolli, 2 hb eggs (drop the yoke)

Meal 4: Two chicken breasts skinless/ Black Beans

Meal 5: MetRx Bar

Meal 6: Salmon Fillet, Spinich

Thats it more or less (add a shake here or there) I try to maintain about 250 grams of protien a day (I weight 206lbs at 5'7")

care to share your diet? are you on a cycle?

Never on cycle. Just listen to your body. I usually eat whatever, but if I notice I'm holding alot of water, I cut out the crap and eat clean at around the same level of calories for 2 or 3 days. That brings me back to normal, then I start eating whatever I feel like again. No idea how many calories, but I eat 5 or 6 meals and usually eat stuff in between. My metabolism is strange, as I used to weigh a pretty solid 250 (probably 15 - 20%bf) and now I'm stuck just below 200 (was 7%+ a few months ago) no matter what. Sometimes I can go up to 205 for a day, then I piss it out.

bulking

hey guys im new to this board,

i think the best answer to the question is that it depends on what your goals are and your body type. EVERYONE is different I know a buddy of mine who works out once in a while and eats like SHIT but is able to gain amazing lean muscle mass. Some ppl can do that, others will turn into blobs and others will gain moderatly.
Your genetics and the way your body works is the main thing. You have to know your body and then decide on your goals. If you just want some mad size and dont care about the fat then eat everything in sight, but if you want to gain muscle a bit slower but with less fat than count your calories, and meals and watch your weight week after week. And make sure your only gaining 1-2 pounds a week MAX, anything above that is fat.

I'm curious do most of you that eat anything when bulking go on a pretty serious, strict and long cutting cycle?? I dunno if i could stand to cut for too long, and am not sure how much to bulk.
