I noticed that the "target weight estimator" calculator is set to "weight loss" by default, and as far as I can tell, can't be changed from that setting. I realize that the calculator still works for bulking, but it is a bit confusing to have it read negative days. For example, if I weigh 185 lbs and want to bulk to 200 lbs at an average intensity and high activity level, it will take me -77 days (minus 77 days). I tried changing my stats to both bulking and cutting and the calculator responded the same. Just curious if a "cut/bulk" option could be added? If I just missed something, sorry for the unneeded post. Thanks guys.

This is a good suggestion, I will make sure I give both bulking and cutting options in the calculator, expect the change to be in place in the next day or so.

Thanks for the suggestion!

Hi There,

I have placed a weight gain option in the calculator. Please try now, please note that to gain weight is actually an inverted operation from losing weight. I.E Less activity=more weight gain, there's no way to determine how much muscle you can gain as theres no set # of calories per lb of muscle so it is all surrounding fat.
