*diet updated in post 9*

6'1" 195lbs, 12-15% BF, 25 yo male, Goals are to put on as much muscle as possible, with minimal fat gain
Intermediate aas usage, starting a blast and cruise however I'd like some input when in comes to dieting on cycle.

Blast - 12 weeks
8 week kickstarter of Dbol 50mgs per day
500mgs Test Cyp per week(250Monday/250Thursday)
Adex starting at .5 eod, will increase if needed

Cruise
200mgs Test Cyp (100Monday/100Thursday) .25adex e3d

Natty diet is as follows
BMR of 2044 x 1.6 activity level (sedentary/5 training days)
= 3,270 calories needed to maintain
= 3,770 calories needed to gain 1 lb per week


Questions
1) Should my diet change between blast and cruise? If yes, please elaborate.
2) What sort of macro split is generally used while on cycle?
3)How much should protein increase while on cycle? 2x lean body mass? More?
4)Help with guidelines continuing forward as I put on weight during my kickstarter.

Thanks Chrisr116 I appreciate the bump, I'm still working on my diet if anyone has some input. I'd just like to learn how a diet should be different than from someone training naturally.

Out in the boondocks
Alright mass, sounds like your shooting for lean mass. My first thoughts are to many simple carbs and refined white flour. You have no vegetables in your diet? While cruising, the 500 cal above maintenance is fine but on a blast I would go at least 1000 or more above maintenance depending on your fat gain, I go closer to 2500 above

Eat whole eggs instead of just egg whites. Preworkout, have 20g of protein powder, an apple and ur preworkout of choice. Skip the poptarts. Like Magnus said, too many simple carbs. Switch pasta for brown rice or sweet potatoes. Eat more veggies, especially greens. Get in some good quality fats, especially fatty wild caught fish.

This is a running draft, and I appreciate your input. What would you like to see switched for the simple carbs? I'm thinking keep the 1cup of pasta instead of 2 cups, and switch in black beans for the rest of the carbs? I eat veggies just don't track them. Steak and chicken always sits on top of a vegetable salad.

Too many simple carbs you got it, I agree. I'll find a way to add avocados or fish.

I appreciate the posts guys!

Revised it. Added some good fats, switched all the pasta for a few other carb sources, and made sure to remind myself to eat greens. This will be my cruising diet, which is an estimated 350calories above maintenance for me.

How would you guys add more food for the blast? I'm having a hard time coming up with good meals.
