Thanks for the dietary advice, I think I'll ramp up as you suggest. I bought a scale this weekend so I can keep track of my weight- not something I've ever really done in the past. Aside from diet, the big thing for me right now is figuring out how to change my work out (I lift five days a week, lots of compound stuff and some isolation; my progression has been slow- but not nonexistent). I may just stay the course for a bit, add to my lifting weights at a slightly faster rate and see how that goes, or i may switch over to something a bit more focused.Aoshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00145284080419502886noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2248254789731612355.post-42123094973413556622012-05-03T11:51:50.189-07:002012-05-03T11:51:50.189-07:00Also, I'm a smaller guy with a relatively high...Also, I'm a smaller guy with a relatively high metabolism, so if you have a bigger frame those numbers will probably slant higher (or lower if you have a slower metabolism) but the important point is to figure out those personal constants empirically.

For adjusting your calories, my recommendation would be to ease into it and see how your body reacts. Bumping to 2500 calories right away should be fine, and then maybe 200 more per week. Measure your weight every week or two to see how your body reacts. Also, doing it gradually will help avoid psychological burnout. Everyone will have slightly different thresholds for gaining/losing. For me, 3200+ is reasonable for gaining, and cutting will be around 2000/2200 or a bit more.Necropraxishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12716340801054739658noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2248254789731612355.post-63688927226791486622012-05-02T16:46:10.861-07:002012-05-02T16:46:10.861-07:00Yeah, I thought so too, but I'm pretty lean.
