[hvactech]

2600 seems high to me

 

[nick11]

im 5'10 weigh 164 and 2599 cals is what this calculator told me to take in to maintain

 

[hvactech]

Then comsume 2800 to start...
225 protein
250-300 carbs
70 fat
Its hard to tell you exactly what

Figuring out your optimal bulking/cutting calories is like the Matrix... no one can tell you what they are, you have to find out for yourself.
