How Many Cals to Grow

[Cut]

If you bulk cleanly with good quality foods, and you aim for a gain of around 1lb a week, then you shouldn't gain that much fat. Try not to think about the little fat you'll get, just think about the muscle you'll be packing on.

Oh, and I wouldn't pay too much attention to what Lee Priest does.

thanx bros...yo how long do you think it will take me to get 220 if i do things right? a year or more?

from 156 to 220........hmm...given a modest increase in LBM of 2 lbs monthly (if natural and no steroids involved) and say, about 1/2 lb. of fat comes along with it monthly (if your diet is super clean) then you should be at 220 in almost 2 years, however you will have added 12 lbs of fat. You'd then have to diet that off for say about 2-3 months, then pack on more muscle again...
