Stupid question maybe...

[Last_Exit]

first, I'm kinda new to make me a diet by myself, so I just have somes questions... I'll appreciate it if someone, for once, could answer my questions..
(these question are more for bulking)


1) to know how much cals I should consume for bulk, it's : Bodyweight X 20? (for exemple, I weight 175 so it's : 175X20 = 3500cals.)

2) when you plan your diet, which p/c/f do you plan first, I mean, if you need 270g of protein, do you plan the protein first, to find the better sources, or carbs ?

3) how do you plan your protein, carbs, fat trough the day ?when, how? (if you're working out on night, how do you plan your meals ? )

no more questions come in my mind for now, I'll post somes later


thanks to anwser these.

your making this to complicated bro. just eat quality meals every 2-3 hours. make sure you getting your healthy fats, good carbs, and lots and lots of protein. take in at least 1-2 gallons of water a day. have a simple carb, whey protein combo after you lift. get a good multi-vit, glutamine, and some creatine. just make sure you don't skip meals. if you try to plan and count every single thing you will get over whelmed. EAT,SLEEP,GROW!!!!!!!! good luck bro!

1) 18-20x is a good place to start on calories.

2) The macronutrient split is a point of great debate so you'll never get a straight answer on it.

3) Most of your carbs should be earlier in the day, other than your post-workout shake. You'll find a lot of other posts on the board discussing diets....read for a while and you'll figure it out.

Bouncer gave you some great advice. Do what he said and fine tune your diet as you learn more.
