Bodyfat - Don't take it in the offseason (guess 14%) seems to be going up the longer i've tried to stay clean

Offseason: 225 - 250g Protein

360-600g daily. I try to go with 2g per pound of body weight, but some days I just cant eat. In that case I stick to 60g of protein per meal.

- 5'10", 190 lbs, Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT), cutting (I *hate* my tummy fat), don't know bf%. Maybe 15%.
- ~300 grams, but I'm up to at least 400 grams since yesterday and plan to stay there for a while. Carbs are currently heavily restricted.
- I'm only satisfied with the muscle gains when taking in lots of carbs with the protein. Unfortunately, doing so without gaining a bit of fat is a somewhat difficult for me.

Cancel that. Despite medication, my cholesterol is out of control. Eating complex carbs and protein again. And forcing myself to run every day.

anywhere from 200-250 grams per day...

I have discovered that large amounts of long-digesting carbs make me grow more than anything... rice, sweet potatos, lima beens, oatmeal...
