When bulking up do you take in more protein or carbs?

[bm2k]

A 50/30/20 split is quite ideal in terms of bulking, IMO. The fact it was your first ever bulking diet would have meant your body was primed for growth, but nevertheless, your gains are impressive.

When I bulk I usually do 50/30/20 (carb/pro/fat) as well. Works pretty good for me. Sometimes I'll even go higher on the carbs like 55/25/20. The important thing is getting enough calories and spreading out the meals as much as possible.

When I am just eating normally (and happily...lol)...I try to get in about 200grams of prot and however much carbs and fat I want. I don't pay much attention to it really.

When I am getting ready for a contest (bulking), I try to eat 300grams of prot and 5-600 grams of carbs a day. Fat..well...I get plenty of that along with the other foods. The last 2 weeks before a contest...I try to eat a ton of everything.
