Anyone Tracking Cal's & try and gain weight?

I know most people on this sight are trying to cut weight. Im curious if anyone else is using this website to monitor their intake in attempts to gain weight? Im currently about 173 working out 4/5 days a week and just started tracking my caloric intake in attempts to monitor intake-vs-weight gain. Any thoughts/tips/input on daily cal totals and an effective slow and steady muscle gain?

Thanks
HS

    Figure out your info here.

    Get TDEE.

    On lifting days eat above TDEE.
    On rest days eat below TDEE.

    If you dont care about fat gain, eat above TDEE every day.

    pretty much, I eat around 4000 calories a day during my bulking phase which im in now, gaining weight for me is all about eating big, lifting big and sleeping big and then youll get big, currently at 196 ive already gained 3 pounds ive only been on this bulk phase for a bout a week and a half
