Almost time for a cut?

[lawrencel2]

Hey guys!
I am currently 179-181 Lbs and thinking its almost time for a cut? Though, i think i might start this when im at 185 Tell me what you think!
Also if you agree with me, what should i cut to? If you dont agree with me then what should i bulk to?
(I am pretty sure the third one i weighed myself at 180 that morning)

If you want to cut down and aren't happy with your body fat % take your time and cut down. Don't set a number to it. Often when people set a number to the cut like "oh yeah, I'm fat now at 210, I'm gonna cut to 175" people often kill muscle gaines with garbage crash dieting. Let the mirror tell you how much you weigh. If I was you id bulk till February then start to lean out to b ready for that first nice day in May. He'll even if you don't want to gain anymore BF you could eat at maintenance and still make gaines.

well what should i cut to! I am so indecisive lol

I wouldn't cut yet. I'd say about 2 more months of gaining then slowly cut.

Bulk for 1-2 months then cut, you be ripped.

[PureMuscleGang]

Yeah I agree start cutting in say 2months so you can pack on more muscle

[lawrencel2]

ok so that will probably put me at about 185-187.. How far should i cut down? ive never done a cut so im not really sure what would be a "good cut" to minimize some muscle loss while getting some nice definition

[lawrencel2]

Or i guess a better way to put it would be, what weight do you think i can get to without losing too much muscle (remember this will be my first BB cut).

1-2more months bulk then little cut

[amw9490]

Still looking pretty lean. You could add more size before cutting.

[eyeguy]

I would bulk for 2more months and then start cutting.

[UgotAniceSNATCH]

since its winter now i would go for a little longer seeing that a mini cut probably isn't enough for you. i'd go ~2-3 more months then cut down for summer

[Kratistos]

depends on what YOU want to look like when you are done cutting.

[bkoguy07]

keep bulking homie

[kiloh]

No one can really tell you how much you need to cut down without knowing your bodyfat % or what bf% you will be at when your bulk ends. When you are ready to cut get an accurate bodyfat measurement and personally I'd aim for around 10% go even lower if you still arnt happy with the mirror. All depends on your goals...but I agree, keep bulking..you have a good base and can add some more mass to that frame. Good luck

Keep bulking for time being

[lawrencel2]

Thanks guys im looking to be around 10% bf.
I have used calipers recently and said im about 13% but i have a feeling my technique is destroying its accuracy.
Guess ill stay on my bulking style. I think ill set a mark for around 188-190 then start a cut.
I ultimately want pretty visible abs, defined muscles, and to actually have a physique of a lifter (not ottermode basically lol)..

Ultimately how much weight should i put on a week?

I think the general consensus is .5-1 lb per week. Personally I've been aiming for 1lb..fat will come but I know how to get rid of it now so it wont be a problem

[lawrencel2]

ok cool. 10% should give me some decent definition i feel especially if i keep hitting it hard till i cut.
