Yuppers, mind you that's with being pretty damn active in general. But I have a high NEAT and my
body opposes
weight gain. Yea I know you hate me. But don't. My life sucks when bulking. Bulking, as you'll learn, isn't a license to eat anything and everything, especially when you're also about maintaining good health. Eating enough healthy stuff to induce hypertrophy day in and day out sucks a big one.
It's why most skinny guys you see lifting
weights, though hard and properly, never change their physique and blame it on their genetics. Eating *enough* is almost impossible.

And Mindi... I suggest upping calories by about 10% and seeing how it does for you every two weeks in terms of measurements. If you are losing... bump up 10% more. If you are maintaining, go with it. IF you are gaining... obviously too much. But I'd start getting more calories in. Likewise you could also turn down the exercise, but why? It's great for your health...
