Calorie Intake

Should calorie intake for training days be higher than rest days, or should  the number of calories I consume remain constant throughout the cycle?
 
It should remain constant, however you will be gaining weight over the cycle and so you will have to adjust your calories upward continuously, since your maintenance requirement goes up as you gain weight. If you always keep it at maintenance plus 500 or else bodyweight times 18-20, then you should get enough calories in to grow during your entire cycle.
