Does anybody know how many calories per pound of bodyweight you need for..

Cutting?
Maintenance?
Bulking?

Thanks

A naive answer for maintenance is 18 per pound of bodyweight

Tough question to answer it`s another one of those "it depends" answers. Depends on the person, ecto, meso, endo. Age of person, activity level...

also depends on how much muscle you have. muscle burns more calories than fat.
