Finally gotten more comfortable with my progress but not sure if I should continue to “bulk” or start to cut.
Before:
>5’11”
>170 ibs
Now:
>5’11”
>205 ibs
I’ve hit 1/2/3/4 on all my lifts, but I’m still not content with where I’m at. Should I start to cut?
Cut?
I'd just stay that BF for a bit longer and put on more size, maybe set a goal to cut once you're at 215 or 220
bulk ofc
tattoos look like fucking garbage and signal that you're lower class
+1
eh maybe, both my chest and back tats were dedicated to my brother and father after they passed away in a car accident
Probbly what I’ll do. I have to start eating more if I want to gain more though, I think I’ve plateaued due to my caloric intake
Don't mind the fucking retards, I would say bulk a little bit more and then cut, progress is already good but I would want to be a little bit bigger if I were you, that's my opinion though.
Yeah. My end goal is 215-220 ibs range I think. My size is mediocre at best, but like you said I’d definitely like to be bigger. Thanks for the input user.
Yeah if you wouldn't post your photo I would have said that you need to cut because you are not very tall but your body type can definetely take more mass so why not. I'm 5'10 but I already look oversized at just 200lbs because of my proportions.
True, I might have gotten lucky with how my frame turned out. Used to think I’d be a skinny fat fag forever.
For your cut, do you usually eat at a 400 caloric deficit?
Around 300-600, depends on my day, I'm not super committed right now because I'm on my vacation but I still try to do my best
Also curious Jow Forums
Bulk or cut? 6’1” 200 lbs, pretty good lifts but I seem to have a lack of definition
do whatever the fuck you want. you look like shit, so you need to commit to one or the other
cut. you're fatter than you think, probably like 20lbs away from abs
incredibly based and correct
what a trashy way to respect your dead relatives
Post body
Post body
try not to get too jealous faggot
mirin upper back gainz
if i cut i would be larger / more aesthetic than you by far. And i don’t have trashy tattoos.
my sides
you must be 18 to post here
good gains guy. you're not particularly fat yet so you could probably keep bulking if you have specific strength goals in mind. On the other hand if you cut you'll be ripped in like 8 weeks. you have to choose what matters more to you at the moment
Shame you will never be fully comfortable with your faggy tattoos
6’5 213
I think I’m nearing what should be the end of my bulk. What do you think? Cut at the end of the month?
Even with my pump here, I don't really have any definition.
Flexed side view for reference
OP here
Personally, I would go for more bulk or a lean bulk. You do have some fat, but I think the benefit of putting on more muscle outweighs the benefit of losing some extra pounds.
I would specifically recommend working your chest more as it seems to be lagging behind your arm development. How are your main lifts?
You really must be retarded to consider cutting in the winter lol you will never make it
(Except if you live on the retarded side of hemisphere)
Maxes:
>Overhead Press: 145
>Bench: 225
>Squat: 300
>Deadlift: 350
Honestly not bad at all, I still stand by my point though. I’d continue to bulk if it aligns with your goals, and focus on building up some mass, specifically in your chest area.
I’m sure someone else can chime in with some more suggestion though
I bulked too hard. 5 months between pics made big strength gains though
>squat: 160 to 190kg
>deadlift: 180 to 220kg
>OHP: 80kg to 95kg
I’m more vascular now than i was on my cut except for the last few weeks. Hoping a 15lb cut will yield good results
your before and after pictures look the same
>OHP is 209ibs
Calling BS
routine?
kek thanks if they look the same then i'm gonna be fuckin shredded after a cut. here's the no pump version (same weights)
OP here, I was doing Candito’s 6 week strength program. I’m not doing PPL with 5/3/1 progression on my main movements
now*
other guy here, upper/lower split. been basically doing Texas Method (alternating volume day and intensity day). 6x6 on volume day and a reverse pyramid on Intensity day (for both squat and OHP). Do a shitload of upper body accessories too, usually every upper body day is
OHP
Pullups/weighted pullups
bench press (db or bb)
row
flyes
face pulls
biceps
triceps
OP, despite doing PPL I think our routines are pretty similar. I should add that like him, I typically alternative volume / intensity days within my week. Obviously make sure your eating enough too
