Bulking....Belly fat

[tomdavis]

Right so ive been bulking for around 1.5/2months now hitting around 3000 Calories a day

I have been doing high intensity cardio once a week probably for around 10/15 minutes

but not every week, probably for around 3/4 weeks i did the high intensity cardio.

if i tense my stomach obv you cannot see a clear 6 pack, but my stomach bulges out a little so i look fat?

do i need more cadio and is this due to gaining too much body fat?

when i tall straight it obv doesnt bulge out as much, but i have obv gained a little bit of a gut

my bf when i checked about 2 weeks ago was 8%

height around 5 ft 9
Weight - approx 174 Pounds/Almost 12 stone

8%bf and can not see your abs? Sounds awfully suspicious lol

dont start cutting until you feel you're big enough or want to get ripped for summer.
stomach bulching out? maybe it's because you ate, drank or haven't went to the bathroom yet.
yes im serious.

Are you lifting?

[tomdavis]

Yes obviously im lifting? i dont get why ud ask that, im getting bigger and making progress but i was wondering if maybe i need to do cardio as i havent been doing much just high intensity workout, lift heavy & not much rest inbetween to keep the muscles burning, incase i was gaining a little too much fat on my gut/stomach

we all have to start somewhere, no i wont cut for another month or two, aim is to get bigger?

Thats what i got when i last checked on one of those machines around 2/3 weeks ago - maybe because i am gaining a little too much fat around my stomach?

this 'machine' is well off if you were 8% but can't see your abs. if you want to gain weight slower then yes, you can do cardio or you can eat less calories. your choice.

[tomdavis]

i think your miss understanding, im not saying i cannot see abs altogether, you can only see it very slighty at the bottom and not at the top, but when i tense you can - but its a bump where it bluges out (this is what i meant by am i gaining a little too much gut)

Or maybe this machine is out id ont know lol im toned and obv small as im only 174 pounds at 5ft 8/9

but now im trying to bulk ive defently put more weight on and i can see results...
