Whose bulking this year? I'm enjoying the running chat we have on the "show your best X,Y and Z" lift thread- perhaps a bulking thread for those of us hammering it?

Cardio + Powerlifting
Hey ya'll! I've been training for powerlifting for a little over two years now with significant strength gain and physique changes. All summer I added in 30-45 minutes of cardio per day in order to get a little cut for bikini season. Recently, since I've only been in the gym 5 days per week versus 7 days per week I've made…

Does weight go on in the same places it was lost????
I recently lost 3 stone and my bra size is significantly smaller and I've lost a lot of fat from my bum. I want this back so if I was to gain a stone would it go on in the same places I lost it. E.g. My bum and boobs. Any ideas would be great thank you

Multi Point BI Body Comp Testing
I have seen this referred to here on occasion but I don't know much about it. The small warehouse gym I go to (mostly an MMA gym with free weights) offers it for only $10 and I'm scheduled to get it done on Saturday.

Deadlift with octagon style weights
I'm sure there's an easy fix for this that I haven't figured out. When I do deadlifts with the octagon style weighs I always seem to put the weight down on a point so one of the weights shifts and moves the bar out of parallel. It's annoying as hell and really affects my momentum. I have to stop reset and lift again.…
