Am I on the right track if I keep bumping my calories by 100 until I hit 3300 calories, and then cut back 100 calories every three weeks to make my new maintenance level 3000 calories, if I'm currently at 2900 calories, have lost 2 pounds, and my muscles look more defined while reverse dieting from 2800 calories to 3300 calories, as discussed in the episodes The Power of Training For Longevity, Performance, & Aesthetics | Mind Pump 2361, Building Muscle Mindfully, Protect and Enhance Your Brain Health | Mind Pump 2393, and Breaking Through Plateaus?
If a very active lean female weighing 120 pounds and 5ft 7in, who trains three times a week, works a physically demanding job, and walks over 10,000 steps daily, eats at maintenance, would I see more muscle definition if I slowly bumped my calories up to 3000 calories, or would I gain body fat?
I'm eating 3000 calories and I'm bulking from a maintenance level of 2850. I also want to switch to doing full body Pilates 3 times a week and target glute and core Pilates 2 times a week. Can I drop my calories from 3000 to 2800 and maintain at 2800 calories without gaining fat?
