I think I'm done bulking (for now) and ready to cut. Thoughts??
I'll try to keep this short. I'm 5'11" and have weighed 195-200 lbs for the past 5 years or so, but in April I had gotten down to 172 lbs. I didn't have much muscle, so I decided to start lifting for the first time in my life. I fluctuated my calories and macros a lot over the past 7 months, but I'm currently at 3900 Cals/day (I was at 3400 then 3700 for most of the time). Now I am at 196 lbs and looking at pictures of myself and in the mirror, I feel like I've definitely gained muscle, but also a lot of fat. Now I think it's time to cut the fat down (then run another bulk), but wanted to hear opinions from you folks first. Attached are my before and after pics, 4 different 'poses'. One of my biggest goals during the bulk was to get some pecs... didn't work out. My chest lifts have been increasing, but doesn't look like I'm gaining much mass in my chest at all. So what do you guys think... cutting time?
