    Gain weight? or cut.

    I am currently weighing in at only 140 lbs, but my normal weight is around 130-135.5. However, my midsection is not where I would like it to be for now. My whole life, I have been obsessed with gaining the muscle for a six pack. And my senior year of highschool I started really lifting and, with a friends help, was able to achieve my fabled six pack. However a few years have passed and I have been working out on and off. As it turns out now, I am more into weightlifting more as a lifestyle instead of just a thing that I do. I am watching what I eat more and more, working out on a daily routine, and trying to stay on schedule with school and work.

    Anyway, the main question to everyone is should I keep gaining weight and eating more to get bigger? Or should I cut the weight to get a six pack first. (If I should cut weight, how would I go about getting a six pack?) I know this makes it harder without a picture and hope to get that up and running soon. I thank you for all of your help.

    135.. Bulk. Cut shouldn't be in your dictionary. Just eat clean and EAT BIG. Once you get to like 185 then you may add "cut" back into your vocabulary.

    So does this mean that my midsection will get bigger as well? Or will all of my gains be in pure muscle if I keep working out everyday, and eating right.

    It's not all gona be pure muscle, probably half muscle half fat. That's where cutting comes into play, once you have reached a certain weight after bulking you cut away the fat that you gained during the bulk while trying to keep all of the muscle.

    135.... that's like 61kg. Bulk clean and you'll gain definition simply due to the fact you're small.
