Quick question for people who transferred from a lower volume, high intensity program such as DC to FT. Did you see a weight stall/loss after a week or two of FT using the same calorie surplus as your previous routine? If so, roughly how many calories did you increase by per week to start seeing weight gain again?
With DC training (At a hobbit like 5'5) I was using 2,900 on rest days and 3,000-3,100 on training days, depending on appetite and if it was a week day or weekend (i train late on week days and only have time for 2 meals post workout so calories were usually 3k where as on weekends usually 3.1k) .
I was going to increase my calories to 3,200 on training days which would be a net increase of between 400-800 per week. Does this seem in line with the kind of increase you guys made to start seeing weight gain?
Many thanks.
