So was working out my macros for a slow bulk and I read that you should keep your fats to 25g on training days and 50g on rest days. That doesn't seem right given 3 eggs is nearly 20g of fat. On average, I'm between 60-80g of fat...

I've been doing a slow bulk and dont change anything up from day to day. I dont have my numbers with me but I think I am at around 100g fat daily @3400 calories which cones out to around 26% fat

Most clean bulk advice I have seen is around 50% carbs, and 25% protein and fat.

Are you sure the 25 and 50 numbers you are reading are grams rather than percentages of total calories? 25g is stupid low. So is 50

Ahh well this guy said he lowers calories on rest days to burn more fat?

I'm about to become a cardio bunny for the next 3 weeks 2 hrs of cardio a day to go along with the 10 day cleanse.
