A bulking tracker for hardgainers. Set your surplus, hit your protein, and actually see whether the scale is moving the way you want.

Daily targets, macro rings, and progress charts. Built around eating more, not eating less.
BulkUp is for people in a bulking phase, hardgainers who struggle to eat enough, or anyone trying to put on lean mass without treating every surplus day like a failure. The targets, the copy, and the charts are all oriented toward gaining.
I built it because I kept running into the same problem: logging 2,800 calories in MyFitnessPal and getting a red warning like I'd done something wrong. That isn't how bulking works.
Targets
Pick a goal weight and a pace (lean, balanced, or aggressive). BulkUp works out your daily surplus and protein, and gives you a rough date for when you'll get there. No spreadsheet on the side.
Logging
Two rings for calories and protein. Log a meal, see what's left for the day, and get a heads-up when protein is done. That's most of what you need during a bulk.
Progress
Body composition, calorie balance, energy spent. Green when you're on target. Useful when you want to know if the bulk is going somewhere or just adding fluff.
Protein
Calories get you the surplus. Protein is what you build with. BulkUp treats both as first-class targets instead of burying protein under a generic macro pie chart.
