Thanks :)

Thanks, I'll do that :) also, once I'm able to get the three sets in with the same weight and with the maximum rep range, should I increase the weight that same day or for the next time I do that exercise? Second question, once the weight is increased if I can only do 8 reps for the first set should that be the goal number…

Thanks that was helpful!

My maintenance without exercise is 1540, I did a small surplus of 260 calories. But am I suppose to be adding the surplus to my maintenance with exercise included or without? That's where I am confused in. Thanks .

I was going to start with 1800 and if I don't gain weight I was planning on eating 2000 calories! Thanks!

I started the Strong Curves program today. I started eating at 1800 calories today, but i'm doing the beginners program so the exercises aren't very intense, just to practice form. Does this sound okay?

Okay thanks, I'll keep the surplus throughout the bulk. I know some people decrease the carbs calories and increase the protein calories on rest days to avoid excess fat, but stay with the bulking calories, in this case 1800. Would this be okay?

What program did you use? That's awesome that you were se to gain muscle!

Congrats !! :)

I eat about 110 to 147 grams of protein, 190 to 200 grams of carbs 40 to 50 grams of fat Do you think those are good numbers to see results? It usually comes up to be 1,490 to 1,630 calories. Thanks…

Yes that's true, I don't have a lot of muscle mass. I'm following an exercise plan and meal plan that was given to me by a personal trainer. However, she just customized my plan for my goals but she doesn't train with me. I'm not able to do certain exercises because of lack of strength. Should I still do them, but with…
