Who here prefers 50C/30P/20F or do you like 40C/40P/20F for a bulk? I know everyone is different so just wondering what your preferences are.

My preference is to set protein at 1.5g per lb (excessive I know), fats at 0.5g per lb and the rest from carbs, so currently slow bulking at ~3k kcals with the following targets

Protein ~35% - 255g (1020 kcals)
Fat ~25% - 85g (765 kcals)
Carbs ~40% - 300g (1200 kcals)

I'm a pretty tall guy @ 6'5 and started my bulk at a lean 10 % bodyfat so my macros are the following. 50 % carbs/30 % protein/ 20 % fats. For example today my macros will be .......465 carbs, 240 protein and 85 fats which puts me at 3585 calories for today. I'm sticking with this for a month and will make the proper adjustments according to how I am progressing.
