      If i'm in the gym for 1 hour and a half, I generally burn 400-600 calories. SO i make up for it.

      Don't call it a lean bulk, just call it a clean bulk, like it should be called. If it says to eat 3020 calories a day, and you go to the gym maybe burn around 500 calories, then really you only input 2520 calories, because the 500 burned was used for energy.

      You using any supplements? I find mass gainers are an excellent meal replacement and good way to get in some calories.

      1 cup of rice cooked is like 600 calories
      milk has a lot of calories
      peanut butter

      theres actually a lot of foods.

      when doing a clean bulk (or any bulk for that matter) do calories really have to managed on a daily basis? instead of varying calories/day cant I just say ok I burn x calories in a week from lifting/cardio divide that by 7 and that to my daily total?

      It's all about learning, researching in your spare time. Get a good calorie counter app, I use myfitnesspal for android and iphone
