@sonofstephen Yeah probably, maybe it’s a tiny bit higher than my maintenance right now.

@sonofstephen Depends on the day. I usually aim for at least 3,200 or so, but if I want to gain weight I think around 3,500 might be more appropriate. For context, I’m 5’9.5” and about 163lbs, with a good amount of activity on most days of the week. Always been skinny my whole life, it’s hard to...
