Hello everyone be great ful for some help today ,
I'm planning to start my lean bulk, after I get back from my holiday. And I want to ensure that macros/calories are setup correctly in order to gain correctly.
My current stats are the following : 167lb , 6ft 2 , 11-12%
I track and log my weight every day and I've been tracking my weight now for a while and recording it.
I have been eating roughly 2800-2850 calories per day which assumed was around my maintence but it was a guess and I want to be able to figure it out so I know it exactly
Dates
07/31st - 168.2 lb
08/1st - 166.6
08/2nd - 166.6
08/3rd- 167.6
08/4th - 166.6
08/5th - 167.2
08/6th - 166.0
The average for the first week was 166.97lb
And then I have done it again this week to be more accurate because I really want to identify my maintence because I want to be able to control my surpluses and when not in surplus so I can take better control over it instead of guessing ruffly if understand.
The second week
08/7th - 167.6
08/8th - 167.6
08/9th - 167.6
08/10th - 167.6
08/11th -169.0 lb (water weight, i also went had a big meal on the Friday night so that's why the next weight is off
08/12th - 168.6 ( morning after going out and had few beverages so weight might will be screwed up abit
08/13th - tomorrow will weigh to make it a complete 14 day average but as of now below is a 13 day average equals
167.45lb
so from the results that I have got from the above, if I take the 13 day average figure which is 167.45 minus the figure from week 1, so 167.45- 166.97 equals = 0.52 lb per week, from what I understand that's a good amount of weight to be adding per week on lean bulk which I'll be starting soon anyway but I just wanted to identify my maintence.
From Myfitnesspal the 7 day average of the macros I had been hitting were around the following;
What I got v Goal
176G / 180 protein
330G/ 340 carb
81G/ 80 fats
So I would appreciate any advice in order to help me find my maintence weight, if it helps I train 5 days a week and I work in retail so always on my feet when working. Also do my my macros seem okay for my goal?
180 proteins
340 carb
80 fats
Thanks
