Calories

So my diet feels sound, I think I may need a few more calories though for my activity level, as high as 4000 and (according to some) possibly more. Right now I'm averaging in the low 3000 and I seem to be leaning out and mainting strength. My recovery is great but with the extra calories may be even better. I'm not a fan of excessive calories and some on the 80/10/10 plan really pack the calories down. Doug Graham himself doesn't say much about the need for excess calories except to eat enough carbs (fruit) to maintain a healthy energy level for the amount of activity one performs. Being quite active I keep this in mind and try to be mindful of calories and my recovery. So I'm game to experiment a little. I mainly fall towards the attitude of Tim Van Orden in this video -


Again I'm keeping an open mind and plan to experiment as needed.
But so far so good!
Thaks for reading.
