    Bulk for another month or start slow cut? [PICS]

    Hey guys, I haven't really achieved the size I wanted to so I'm thinking of bulking for another 4 weeks but I'm not sure if there's a point in bulking for another month. I want to get really lean for this summer without losing muscle so I'm considering starting a slow cut now. 184cm 82kg

    No problems man! oh really!? awesome! But ahh yesss I get what you meann! but I wouldn't say you have toooo much to cut especially for most people within a bulk. I personally started a bulk fairly recently and plan to stop around 215 as I see we have a similar height. By the looks of it, you may have somewhat of an underdeveloped core? as I would say you are fairly lean (I too had one and am still working on it).

    Maybe I just have more fat around my stomach than other areas? I always did heavy squats and DL's (current max's are 140kg ATG squat and 205kg deadlift) and I do direct ab work at least once a week.

    It doesn't look like you have too much fat so I think you could get away with another month of bulking before you cut.

    Very nice man! Oh really? can take quite awhile to develop just like any muscle though, would suggest 2x a week for abs. Best of luck bro!

    There's no point in bulking for an extra month. It's kind of a long video, but I encourage you to check this out:

    Great stuff to know. Depending on how long you've been lifting will effect how much muscle you can actually build in one month. But I don't see a point for any level of experience with weights. One month of hypertrophy/surplus calories/bulking will not give you any noticeable benefit.

    your in the exact same dilemma as me but ive chosen to bulk for another month but less of the cheat meals and more of the healthy foods, low fat etc but staying way over calories required. Come the following month your be in much better position. hope it helped man
