Macro ratios?

[Massroid1020]

I'm 5'8 at 163 lbs and have recently switched my diet from cutting to bulking. Today I tracked my macros and it turned out to be 208carbs, 300protein, and 55fat. The percentages turn out to be 54% carbs, 40% protein, and 6% fat. This totals 3367 calories. What should I tweak if anything for the best ratio for clean bulking. Trying to fid the sweet spot of not putting on fat while putting on muscle.

Think you made a mistake with your calculations...

Think you made a mistake with your calculations...

How is that?

 

[Massroid1020]

Shit I just realized that, I switched the values of carbs and fats.

 

[Massroid1020]

So recalculated I'm at 2527 calories with basically a 40/40/20 ratio correct?

 

[roguemonkeyjr]

now its correct haha but IMHO you're not taking in enough calories for bulking bro

Meal 1: 1/2 cup steel cut oats
2 tbs peanut butter
8 oz liquid egg white

Meal 2: 1/2 cup oatmeal
1 chicken breast ~ 8-10oz
1/2 cup green beans

Meal 3: 1 cup white rice
1 tilapia filet
1/2 cup green beans

Meal 4: 1 cup white rice
8 oz ground beef
1/2 cup green beans

Meal 5: 1 chicken breast ~8-10oz
1/2 cup green beans

I also throw in three myofushion shakes a day. This is eating every three hours from 8:30 in the morning till 9 at night. Any suggestions on what I could change or tweak and where? I'm thinking I need to be around 3200-3500 calories.

well calculate your BMR and go 500 cals above maintenance with a split of macros that suits you, the less you cheat the better the results

 

[Massroid1020]

Bmr is 2900 calories that's taking into consideration activity level. So I would need 3400 calories a day, I was thinking of aiming for a 40/40/20 ratio, is this a good amount or should I consume more protein less carbs ect.

 

[roguemonkeyjr]

it seems like a good macro ratio, mine's more like 50/30/20 but thats personal preference and what works best for me

 

[Massroid1020]

Its just going to be hard for me to handle it mentally cause of the simple fact I'm the strongest I've ever been and the lightest I've ever been and did it all on about 20-30 carbs a day with very high protein and had two carb loading days a week so eating all the carbs now kinda makes me feel heavy ya know
