3 month bulk results (starting summer cut)

[ben_faulkner]

bulked for just over 3 months,

gone from 69kg (152lbs) to 81kg (178) - 12kg gain (26lbs)

my main goal was to put some size on my legs which i have always felt are out of proportion to the rest of my body.
They still are but to be honest at this body fat i feel terrible and can't stand to bulk any more.

Going to start a slow cut now leading up to the Aussie summer, will be interesting to see how much extra muscle remains when i get back down to single digit body fat.

pics taken today.

Dam looking great man. Just starting my own bulk now, so lets see if I can bulk and make the cut in time for Aussie summer as well =P

Great bulking! You were very lean before but you're still lean and you've added plenty of mass
Pecs, traps and delts are looking big
No real weaknesses - strong and balanced
How much did your lifts go up with the bulk?

So Bondi is going to be a permanent home for you now --- not missing the English weather?

thanks mate, not so sure about permanently any more. considering a move over to Perth... not really much point going back to the UK until the economy sorts itself out. which looks like could still take a few years to do.

3 months ago (for reference)

[mightyillidan]

very good time for a cut

[Simooon19]

If you cut you will look aesthetic as fuark brah

[Filibuster]

Solid overall man definitely a successful bulk, could have definitely gone a little longer if you comfortable in doing so, but you're gonna look amazing when you cut

[sneakyryan]

You're going to look near perfect at a lower BF.. crazy gains man, gj

[d423]

how are you planning on cutting? what diet?

[Rufus15]

Very nice bud, motivation for my bulk at the end of the summer!

[Vitality778]

After a cut you will look amazing man!

[ben_faulkner]

[ben_faulkner]

Wow, you were pretty good 3 months ago, but you've done incredible things since then, and yeah once you're done with this cut... wow. Took it to the next level!

[fittofattofit]

Yeah....13%, so 155 LBM
If you keep all your mass you'll hit 8% at 168 - you'll be looking really big and cut at that
Maybe plan a 10lb cut over 6-8 weeks

[nick87c]

looking great, not carrying much fat either!

Do you mind sharing how you bulked that much that quickly? That's 2+lbs/week of muscle gain for 3 months! crazy

[anonymousapp]

You still look pretty lean imo. Just no definition.

I just ate a lot, plus mass gainer shakes. A lot of it is fat though not all muscle as I was very lean when I started. Also focused of heavy compound moves at the gym.

excellent job.looking great congratz
