[NourSy]

What's up guys I am finally close to my bulking season I have been on a weight loss and dropped 20 pounds I need to start bulking now but the thing is when I lost weight I was not in a caloric defect my body needed 2300 to lose weight because I was 202 lbs and the way I lost weight was by only eating 1500 I know this is hard to do but it worked I mean I was eating breakfast, lunch, dinner with these 1500 and couldn't eat more because when I managed to my weight loss stopped so I went back to 1500 now that I am going to bulk I need 2800 I am afraid to gain more than 1-2 pounds doing that so what do u suggest guys thanks ☺

Bulking during spring/summer is the right way to bulk. My cutting phase this winter has been successful so far.

Don't be afraid of the fat, I suggest you throw away all the mirrors and just focus on your fats, carbs and proteins.

Plus who doesn't like to get buffed and bloated? The strength ratio 1lb of body weight per 2.5lbs of iron weight? At 200lbs you should be able to do 1 rep of 500lb chest press or deadlift.

True man I can tell that you are more of a powerlifter which is great because I rarely see people who care about the weights nowadays👍 I haven't bulked in my entire life although I have heard that bulking should last at least one year do u think I should go for a year?

Some people will bulk for years and get cut for a short time. Cutting is more expensive than bulking.

Yah I do powerlift routines. Its more of a 1 rep chest press 500lb then rest for 10min.

Yah go as much as you want then cut when you want. Just remember, having a cut body won't last for long. Unless your a male model, these guys bulk for 4 weeks then cut for a week just for a photoshoot or something.

I suggest you stick to a clean balanced diet, and high calorie though, so lots of healthy fats and keep salt/sugar to a limit. However if you're cravings something its all good in moderation.

I agree with that so much☺
Thank you
