Bulking and Cutting Program



I'm excited to be participating in Skip La Cour's Bulking and Cutting Program Challenge!

Here's my tentative bulking meal plan. According to the Harris-Benedict equation, I need approximately 3,500 calories to add size or bulk. I wanted to first ensure that I would be getting about 1.25 grams of protein per pound of bodyweight. I then attempted to get about 20% of my calories from fat and the remaining ones from carbohydrates. Obviously, I plan to adjust as needed.

NOTE: It is essential that the meals be as quick and convenient as possible as attend college full time and work full time. That is why tuna was the protein of choice. I will probably change the evening selection to chicken or tilapia.
