If the calorie surplus is beyond what you need for muscle growth, then all extra calories will be converted into body fat.
What is the recommended amount of pluscalories daily? Is it 250 - 500 cal? And is that a bigger guy (who normally eats 3 000 cal) needs more pluscalories than a smaller guy (who eats about 2 000 ca per day)? Or should they eat same amount of pluscalories for muscle growth?
On the other hand, would it be preferred to use % calculations for each individual, like +15% of you normal daily calories, so this way the amount of pluscalories varies individually?
And is there some sort of "limit" to pluscalories when the additional calories are more likely to be stored as fat than being used as for building muscle?
P.S. Does any one have a link where is well covered how the muscle growth happens. Thanks.
