You can still bulk on IF, you just have to get all the calories you need in your eating window.

Fasting doesn't breakdown muscle, your body turns to fat long before muscle for energy, that's the whole point of IF.

For example: if your maintenance is 2000 calories per day, fast until 5pm, have a small meal, lift, then get the rest of the calories you need, for a total of about 2500, in before about 10. 5-6 hours is usually a good non-fasting window.

But chances are if you're a male college student and are very active your maintenance calories will be much higher. Start by finding out your maintenance (number of calories you would need to eat each day to maintain your current weight) add 500, and eat that number of calories in CLEAN food in your 5-6 hour non-fasting window.
