Hey fellow Myfitness Pals,

I've just come off my cutting stage, I managed to lose 10 pounds mostly fat. The next stage for me is to bulk up, however, i am looking to do this as clean as possible with minimal fat gains.

Would be great if some of you could share your success stories or advice in regards to a Lean Bulking program. all information is knowledge gain :)

In terms of supplements - I am doing all this clean, with no supplements or protein shakes.

    Word of advice, be patient! Lean bulking is definitely possible, but it is a slow road.

    What was your calorie intake when cutting and where are you now? What is maintenance for you? Moderately increase your calories over the next few weeks and see how you respond. Ultimately you'll increase to maintenance then slightly over.

    I've been able to keep a low BF but still add muscle and make strength gains. It's been a slow process for me, but I'm patient with it.
