I'm currently weighing around 77-78kg (Not entirely sure since waterweight is always a factor when I hop on the scales) from around 75kg in 3 months. Goal weight is around 85kg by around April. I'm sitting at around 2k calories but I don't really count too strictly. Normal meals for a day would look like this -
Breakfast - Cereal, 4x Toast w/ Peanut butter
Meal 2 - Chicken and rice
Pre workout - Shake w/ oats or just plain shake
Post workout - Shake w/ Dextrose
Dinner - Steak with potatoes and vegetables
Meal 6 - Peanut butter w/ protein powder and milk
This would usually be around 2000 calories a day. I was wondering if I should up the calories even more or if i'm doing something wrong nutritionally? Any help is appreciated
Maxwell Smart on the forum recommends 35 x desired body weight as a target calorie intake. Something like that anyways....but 2k in calories is way too low bro.
I use a simple method and thats eating a shit load of steak, potatos, rice, pasta, oats, milk, cottege cheese, protein shakes and train fucking hard....
I was maintaining bodyweight at 2k. I didn't lose any weight at that amount of calories, but that wasn't precise it would of been 2k-2.5k probably, its not strict calorie counting. i'm eating around 2.8k - 3k calories now.
