You weigh 170 lbs. Maintenance is usually about 15 x your bodyweight in lbs, which for you works out to about 2500 a day. To bulk, eat more than this.
Wondering where to start? Confused? "Homework 1" will get you started.
Think you're ready for the "next step"? Take this test.

MEN: BMR = [9.99 x 77.5 (kgs)] + [6.25 x 170 (cm)] - [4.92 x 18 (years)] + 5 =
[774.2] + [1062.5] - [88.6] + 5 = 1753.1
You need to go back to math class and study order of operations.
