Hi there, Chillen!
Thanks for all this, I read through all of it and worked out my MT is 3078 and that's with the "Moderately Active" equation but I expect I'll sign up to the Gym at my College soon so I have something to do in Lunch Breaks besides walk around the green with mates (which will soon stop as the cold British winter kicks in!) so that'll mean exercise pretty much every day, I think for now Moderately active is correct though.
Well about whether I'd like to get cut or bulk I think the best way to describe my target is "Bigger and Toned", What do you think of the idea of me lifting for 40 mins each night (I get in late from College and doing more than that could be tiring in the bad way) and on Wednesdays and Saturdays running 7 miles in an attempt to keep my body fat down?
The thing is I hate the idea of gaining fat as you can see from this post from a while back:

In terms of Diet I always count calories and I eat all of the things you listed! .. except for the Proteins! but I have plenty of eggs and marmite as I just discovered it has 0.6gs of Fat per 100g and 47.5gs of protein! pretty damn good ayeI also have protein shakes. I really should put emphasis on the fact that I am very careful with my diet.. as in I've been inside Mcdonalds two times in my life and they were both to use the toilet! I last had chips about 3 months ago and I felt sick after and I last had Crisps over a year ago, Junk food simply doesn't interest me, not that my diet is perfect though :yelrotflmao:
I did use to be a bit chubby, I think just because I didn't do pretty much any exercise!! I.e Computing is a big part of my life but these days I will do anything to keep/be fitter.
Annnnnnnnnywayy enough of me going on.
I'll try out the Deadlifts amongst a few others you mentioned now as I've never done them before!
oh and about the Diary thing yea I'll do that soon!
Cheers, mate!
On the surface, I do not like the idea of lifting 40 minutes PER night.
Im glad you decided to start a journal!
How about: Rotor Rooting the JuicyRooter LOL as a name.
