High Calorie Diet...

[mikey_270]

If I am trying to bulk, should I continue my high calorie diet, during the SD phase? I was concerned about eating 3000 calories while laying around being lazy.

Thanks guys, you all are great!

P.S. I FINALLY start tomorrow!!!!!!! I thought my SD would never end!!! LOL!!

You could continue the high calories no more than the first week or so.

If not, make sure you are protein adequate, and drop back to maintenance calories during SD.

Godspeed, and happy HSTing

I agree with Dianabol's statement. I finished a 13 day SD a week or so ago and maintained my bulking diet during the entire SD. I felt I started putting on fat after about 7 days into it. I have since cut about 300 calories out of my diet into my 15's and will increase calories when I feel I need to.

On my next SD, I think I will maintain my bulking diet for about 5 days into it and then cut back 300 to 500 calories from my diet. (My bulking diet averages around 3400 to 3600 calories/day. I'm 5'-10 1/2" tall and ~195 lbs.)

Have a great cycle!
