Is it possible that I'm eating too little if I'm consuming 220 to 250 grams of protein and 2500 calories daily, averaging 18,500 steps a day, and have started anabolic training? Should I eat more now that I've begun this training, or should I stick to a deficit to reach my goal of being between 12% and 15% body fat?
I'm working to increase my caloric intake from an average of 1300-1700 calories a day to 2000. I was consuming 122g of protein daily through whole foods and a protein shake, but with the increase in food, my protein intake is reaching the 160s/180s, which seems like a lot.
I'm not sure where to target my protein intake or how to increase my calories without pushing my protein intake higher. I don't even know what I should weigh to be lean with muscle. How can I manage my diet and weight to achieve my goals?
