how do you know when to cut? should i?

[gettheburn]

Ive been bulking for a little while and put on about 6lbs of muscle, my waist is smaller and my hips but my back and arms are bigger now. I was looking at other people profiles to get an idea of how heavy i should be to look a certain way as im very picky about how i want to look and feel.

I love Jamie Easons body but she says shes 5.1ft and 111lbs which means to be the same height to weight ratio i should be 118lbs and im now 138lbs but cant imagen looking like her if i dropped down to 118lbs i think id look too lean? and not retain the sexy femenine look of jamie.

i dont know if to cary on bulking as its making me feel big or start cutting, worried i'll make the wrong choice and screw up what ive done so far, any advice.

also i want abs to be more visible and know that shedding fat will help but what if i havent done enough work to make them bigger first.

Don't worry about weight, that doesn't tell you anything about body composition. Do you feel like you have enough mass? Keep in mind if you cut you can lose muscle. But if you do cut and you want more muscle, you can bulk again. Think of it as more of a long term goal.

Do you know your bf%?

Its time to cut when you dont like the way your tummy looks
