Yep, currently bulking. Since feb last year ive gone from 10 st 9lbs to 11 st 12lbs. Pretty chuffed. Don't look like i lift yet but i attribute that to lack of muscle and lack of definition. Carrying on bulk till mid march..... Then i dunno. 8 week cut? 12 week? Then maintain for a but before major winter bulk in…

Absolutely amazing info. Thanks so much guys

37 yo male. 6ft tall. Gone from 10 stone 8 to 11 stone 10 since February. However my waist is now 35 36 inches. Thinking of doin a 4 week aggressive mini cut then smashing the bulk till march april time. Thoughts?

Ah its once a week man. Doing something right 90 percent of the time is better than doing nothing 100 percent of the time. Just go out and enjoy. As for telling people... I dont. I will only admitt to lifting weights and eating a certain way when its plainly obvious and someone mentions it. Praying for that day 😂

I guess if you were a 250lb mass monster... You would be awake all day trying to space out 30g portions. Doesnt make sense

You're a beast!

Omg absolutely yes. Get a bench and some weights. And you know what? Your muscles don't even realise the weight you're lifting isn't being lifted in a swanky gym. Go for it

Yep. Good advice fellas. Ive embraced it, happy to not be yo yo-ing. Think honestly I just needed telling. Gotta love the internet for honest, unbiased opinions. Thanks again everyone.

Cheers fellas for the replies. Been looking at it. I love the look of no bs approach. Keep it simple

Thank you sir. The world needs more honest people like you. The bulk is on!

Good advice. Just what i needed to read right now. As for thread starter. Great progress! Id bulk if i was in your position. You have made great gainnnnzzzz

Skol!!

Ive downloaded the libra weight trend app. Seems simple enough to use. So the sensible plan now would be to continue at my current calorie target for 2 weeks and see if the trend goes up. Sounds like a plan

Thanks sardelsa. Im weighing somewhere in between. So i weigh every monday then intermittently throughout the week when i feel like it. Thanks again for the advice

Imagine what you'd look like if you hadnt quit

Patience will aid consistency, which i believe is the key to progress in this game of gains

In terms of dealing with fat gain... This is an area i was concerned about. That was until i read something along the lines of "i see guys cutting before they even have any muscle to cut into" and i thought, hey that makes sense. So accept a bit of fluff, build the gains, then strip away the fat and maintain as much of…

Not looking to add friends, but i am looking to help. So.... Motivation. Why are you doing it? Why weight loss? Why low carb? Its in these answers that you will find all the motivation you need.. Good luck

Literally anytime is fine

I havent contributed to this post thus far but i have been following it. Interesting topic and some good points of view. So I thank you all

And pigeons

If someone can do that then i can only guess they arent doing it hard enough. A few minutes worth of squats and i couldnt imagine doing anymore than that

Im 34 and look nowhere near as good as you guys. This ia not a reply intended to put myself down, but rather to highlight how impressive you guys are. Keep it up, you can inspire me whilst i try to inspire my young kids

Small potatoes make sacks of potatoes.... So said me!! Very well done. Keep it up

Yes, use a calculator to find out how many calories you need a day, try this for a few weeks along with a reputable weight lifting routine. If you gained weight.... Nothing excessive eg a pound or less is good. If you didnt gaine weight... Add say... 300 calories ans re assess in a week or 2. Rinse repeat.

Because we are all so unique.... Im of the attitude now where i just try something. This will give me real life experience and something to learn from. Just try it mate, if it doesn't work out how you planned, well atleast youve learnt what not to do. Hope this helps

If you can..... Get a home bench and weightset. You dont have to go to a gym

Man..... I realised I was stronger than my dad at the age of 15....i remember it so clear, and i was shocked. Your dad is meant to be the strong one. So now I have kids of my own, and i want, i need, to be strong for them. So im lifting weights amd eating a tonne in the hope that i can throw them around for years too come.…

Are you left handed? Could be that your left tricep is taking more of the weight than the pectoral, thus inhibiting its growth. However ive just realised i have highlighted a potential problem without a solution. Sorry mate. Only thing i could suggest is maybe continuing to build the chest as a whole in the hope that it…

Yeah its all true. Just trying help from a different angle. We've done sympathetic, get to a dr.....which by the way i highly recommend rather than asking for help on the Internet kind of approach. If the tough love approach did not work then hey, i tried my best. That being said, maybe my opinion has not helped, i was…
