17 year old. Bulk or cut?

[Elijah94]

I'm about to start p90x for the 3rd time agin. I usually get busy so I can never finish it. Now I'm goin to start. I have protein and cretien. I weigh 124 pounds and I'm 17 years old. I have about 18% body fat. I want a great body by like August. I want to be over to have a 6 pack. Should I be tryin to bulk or get cut. I have no type of muscle what so ever but I'm not fat. I most of the time skip breakfast and sometimes eat lunch and always eat dinner. Any suggestions on what to do and which direction to take?

Bulk for the next 4 years.

You will be glad you did because chances are you will never make such awesome gains as you can during this time.

No you starting eating like a horse and lifting heavy.

See nutrition section stickies for diet info and pick a good lifting program.

Disregard your abs and acquire muscle mass. You'll look like a retard with a skinny frame and barely visible abs. Don't overlook this piece of advice. Too many people say "lol im not going to listen to rainingblood, whats he know. girls like abs i want abs". 3 months down the line, you'll be on here again asking why you've made 0 progress.

[Elijah94]

Ok. I'm eat a lot more

[Elijah94]

Do you think I can at least get big my this August ?

Strong lack of black genetics on you.

youre 18% bodyfat? you don't look like it

[jvon2011]

Don't rely on p90x to put on muscle mass. The results you see, are pretty much always people starting out with a high body fat percentage, and burning a bunch of fat. That is how they get ripped (they have the muscle mass before starting).

Find a good lifting program, and stick to it. Keep a workout journal (this is extremely important in keeping track of what you are doing so you can make necessary adjustments as you get stronger). Switch the rep count up slightly every 6-8 weeks to keep the body from getting used to the workout. This keeps your muscles growing.

As for food, never skip a meal. Also go to the nutrition thread to find out how many calories you should be consuming on a daily basis. Keep in mind, this is to maintain your body weight with you activity level, so add another 250-500 calories to it per day to put on mass. This should be about right for you to burn fat, while building muscle (personally, I avoid the bulk. By bulking, you are putting fat onto your body. This is in the form of fat cells. When you eventually cut, those cells greatly decrease in size, loosing weight, but they are still there. This makes it much easier to put on fat when you get older. I would put on lean muscle mass).

As far as getting big by august, this is not very likely. You will probably see some big changes if you haven't lifted before, but as for getting big, that will take more time.

I hope this helps you accomplish your goals!
Good Luck!

This is retarded. You have no muscle what so ever and you want to cut?

You are 124lbs and you want to cut?

Did you just ask if you can get big in under 3 months?







No OP. This takes years of dedication. You are going to be disappointed when in august you expected to be big and your not.
