I've been trying to get my diet on track because I'm having a hard time gaining weight despite eating loads, so I'm trying to get my macro numbers all figured out for this particular situation. I work as a construction labourer 5 days a week which is very active, then I also do weights about 5 times a week. Here are my stats:
Age: 22
Height: 5'10"
Weight: 170
Bodyfat: ~10%
I entered my information into a nutrition calculator and this came out:
Maintenance calories: 3350
Textbook gain: 3680
Breakdown:
Carbs: 622
Protein: 150
Fats: 67
What do you guys think of these numbers? It seems protein could be 20 or so grams higher and carbs brought down a little bit. But please give me some input here and any advice you may have.
