why do people want to "bulk" and "cut"
when in all reality all you have to do is focus on your diet and actually workout with all of your potential
basically with high intensity workouts.
Really all you have to do is, lift normal heavy weights and bulk by eating clean healthy foods, take the right supplements and the right things, and limiting youself to two cardio sessions per week
but people still
bulk for 2-4 months
and cut for 2 months
and i still dont get it is why people complain on why their gains are going down..
Question???
would you rather look good??? or feel good??
__
me my program that i have been following has been like this. i dont like bulking but i want a little mass, my gains are from compound exercises (bench, squat, deadlifts) and i use secondary exercises to bodybuild.
i use strength for my primary lifts and 3x8-10 reps on my secondary lifts, i lift the main body parts on separate days, monday-chest,wednesday-back, friday-legs, and i mainly use 2-3 minute recovery time on my main exercises and secondary lifts i use 1-2 minute recovery time
and yes i have "bulked" up alot but seriously whats the whole idea on doing it, id rather have the body of a body builder, but the strength of a powerlifter
and if you actually put some thought into weightlifting, most of your gains come in the kitchen, not just from working out. That is why when you actually start counting your macros you should times your body weight by 20 and you should only be eating that much when you workout
40% protein 30% carbs 30% essential fats/vitamins
( i know this is just random ramble but i just want to know your feelings on bulking and cutting)

yeah i know what you mean bro but still, if your getting the recommended amount of calories that you are wanting, shouldnt you gain alot, if your calculating what you're eating, shouldnt you see results? right now i rarely eat fruits, i eat them but not like i used to, i eat mostly lean meats, vegetables and pastas.

but why switch up your workout program for just cutting and stuff, or dont most people just continue gaining strength and just limit their daily intake?

You seem confused so let me spell this out for you.
Calorie surplus = bulking
Calorie deficit = cutting
Won't gain muscle without a calorie surplus and you won't lose fat without calorie deficit. Eat at maintenence and you will go absolutely nowhere. Good luck with your stagnation goals of 2013, OP.

well thats true dude, and i really have been learning about all of this stuff like the last 6 months but i was just wondering why people would want to do that stuff,
i was about to say just eat normal and add a little cardio here and there but extensive amounts of cardio damages your gains"You always have someone criticizing your form, the way you do things, and how many times you could do it, but the time when you actually put it to a test, people are amazed"
