in Goal: Gaining Weight and Body Building
Ok....I posted the pic on the left a few months ago and was told I should cut a bit more before thinking about bulking. I was 122lbs there and I'm now 115-116. I think if I could add a little mass now I might be satisfied. Have I gotten enough fat off?

    I absolutely think you are ready for a bulk. Just remember that you'll often have to cut a little again after your bulk, but it will be worth it. Awesome progress!

    I am guessing you are are in the 18-20% range now, so I would say yes, go for the bulk....

    I wouldn't cut any further. Go on into a small surplus and have some fun lifting.

    Ok....thanks everyone. I'm burnt out on cutting and ready to have a lil fun now.
    I have to find my maintenance number and make sure I'm doing ok with macros first. Plus...I need one more month of summer before I start sporting a pooch. :smile:

    You definitely look ready to bulk, great job!
    Yea by the time you up your cals then find your maintenance that will probably take you until the end of summer then let the gainz begin! Hopefully I will be joining you B)

    Thank you so much for pointing me the way I needed to go. Now I can start bugging you for help with bulking! LMAO! Damned legs finally did slim down a bit...yeah. I think they would look a little better still but I have some ugly loose skin that I'm hoping will get better....

    No they will look better with the bulk. You know mine are similar and I like mine better now even though they're bigger.

    Absolutely. You're in a great spot to get into a small surplus.

    Thank you. Rather than start a new thread I'll just ask here and hope someone sees it....

    Right now I get .4-.5g of fat and a minimum of 120g of protein per day. Is that still going to be ok?

    Do you increase to 250 all at once or gradually? I guess I'm going to have an initial jump of water weight?

    Wow! You look fantastic! I hope that you will post some updates during your bulk.

    Someone recently posted this article and I have decided to use it as a guideline: http://www.bodybuilding.com/fun/how-to-eat-for-max-muscle-growth-at-any-age
