Well usually you gain weight on a bulk, lose weight on a cut, and maintain weight when you maintain.
The amount of calories to do that isn't really important, it's not the same for everyone anyway, depends on many factors.

Haha...dude you don't know me, my activity level, or my metabolism, I might not be shredded right now, but I'm definitely not fat at all.

I don't care who you are, chances are you are not running 10k everyday
I didn't say you were fat, I said there is no way you were NOT gaining fat on 4000 calories

I don't even do cardio at all in the winter, and I stay under 10% bf natural, it's really not that crazy I eat 6-7 times a day around 600 cals a meal..all I have to do to get leaner is kick in some cardio a few times a week, I never change the amount of food I eat, I'd would rather just do cardio..

I love to run and swim, so in the summer when I want to get leaner, I'll run or swim for usually an hour or so a few times a week, I want to eventually get into triathalons when I get older.

How does the absolute amount of calories matter as long as the desired rate of weight change is maintained? One 200lb person may need 3000 kcals for maintenance, another 200lb person may need 3500 kcals, depending on various factors.

Dave Tate dropped 2 pounds of fat a week on 5100kcal.

-Hope this helps.

Btw you should do some research before you pollute the boards with your bs claims.
