88g of fat a day is to much for someone that is 225? Ok, I will change my diet some more.

Thanks, anything else I should look at changing?

dude, 88 grams of fat is NOT enough for someone who is 225. You should be over a 100g of fat, there was a calculator on here somewhere or a formula someone had from the unvi of florida. But just my expereince I tried a bulking diet trying to keep things low fat (under 100g) and it did **** for me. I used the calculator and it had me at 135g of fat and I started gaining some good size too, not fat. Fat is an essential part of anabolics, just the good fat, no saturated and ****. Get some flax and olive oil and use those as youre fat sources. But 88g of fat is too low I think, it should over 120....just my quick rant but I think others would agree w/me 88 is too LOW

also up youre protein alittle more and drop some carbs, unless youre highly active

Ok good because I was trying to figure out how to add flax oil and a MCT and keep my fat cals below 88g. Adding some more fat will be easy. Yummy flax oil... I should also cut carbs a little and add some more protein? 400g protein and 350 carbs or still more protein?

I would say get the protein over 400g of protein a day maybe more. the general rule is 1.5 to 2.0g of protein per lb of bodywieght. I would lower the carbs too

I think that you need to do That Diet until you see Results (Good or Bad) Then Adjust Accordingly)

If you are just Bulking then Bulk the He** Up and dont Worry. Just Ensure that you get Enough Protien.

PS- Losing Fat is what A Cutting Session is For.

Well I am 3 weeks into my cycle and I decided to do the eat until I puke and still keep it somewhat clean under 170g fat a day. So far I am up 15 pounds and only gained 1 inch around the midsection (thanks to t-1 pro). I think I will make my winter weight goal of 245 and then start cutting at the end of Jan first of Feb time frame. I will have to post some before and after pics at that time also.
