Clean Bulk Macros

JamesU2005 · 8 May 2011 at 13:51

Spent most of the day reading numerous websites and guides with regards to Clean Bulking.

I'm 6"4 and weight 13" stone 8" lbs (190lbs). I've been eating clean at maintenance but it's time to bulk.

Worked out my macros for a clean bulk should be as follows, well I think!

Daily Calorie Intake: 3406
*
PER DAY
Carbs: 387g
Protein: 209g
Fats: 113g

Does this look right?

Would personally up the protein a smidge, just my opinion though. If 3406 is about 500 above you're maintenance i'd say that your macros are looking pretty good.

There is a lot of information on bodybuilding.com, if you have a look around the nutrition forum you should be able to find a calculator that will do it all for you

Bodybuilding.com for most info and http://www.freedieting.com/tools/weight_gain_calculator.htm

So are my macros looking ok?
