I've been hitting around 3,000 calories a day with 225-250 grams of protein a day. I tried to stick around 2,500 calories a day when I first started this 5x5 but a little after a week in to it I was getting hungry a lot because the workout was really taxing my body.

I ran the 5x5 posted here in this forum. Perhaps I should try another 5x5 routine? What 5x5 are you running Skeetopunk01?
