Not sure how true this is burt based on that, I would assume to take an increase in calories in your PWO Shake Thanks Funkster

Would like to get some more info on this comment, would be great if it was true!!

For OP personally I believe breakfast, Pre and PWO are the best times to slam in the cals.

They interviewed some guy who stated that, I'm pretty sure Thanks Funkster

What is your height, weight and bodyfat at the moment?

It depends on how your metabolism is, you might be able to add mass at those stats with 2950 Cals ED you might not.

Do you know the daily breakdown of those calories ? I.e how much Protein,fats,carbs ?
