If you want to try and put on a little less fat you could go 3500-4000.

Use my spreadsheet in my sig. if you need help tracking your calories.

Tough call since every1 is different. I've seen friends eat lots of clean, quality calories and gained an average amount of mass, but not phenomenal. Some grow like weeds and turn into monsters. Me personally, I do well on a high protein diet that never exceeds 2,500 cal. I don't know why. During one cycle I went for 4000 cal, and I wasn't happy with my results. My gains had a different look. More puffy than hard. I would say quality calories are what matter.

Yep depends on your body type. If you already know how many calories you need to maintain your weight, I'd just add 500/day to that for starters. If your weight gains aren't up to what you want at that intake, add 2-300/day more until you reach a good mix of weight gain without putting on too much fat. Personally, I don't even go below 3000/day when dieting, and I only weigh about 185 at 5'5". Bulking for me is 4500-5500/day, dieting usually 3200-3500.

Thanks for the spreadsheet.

Yeah I think I start at 3000 and see what that does for me. Thanks for the advice bros'
