What's more difficult?

[dits]

Just wondering as to what was more difficult to execute;Bulking or Cutting?

I mean in bulking you eat a lot,and its easier that way because you can have your cheat days a lot of times.

In cutting you have to follow a strict diet and cant really have as many cheat days so that you dont destroy the momentum you're in.

So what do you find more difficult?

Well I havent reached a stage when I have to bulk because I'm 192 lbs at 5'9,but I'm cutting until I reach a bf% of 17 (I currently am 24).

In my opinion,cutting is quite difficult,I've had to leave a lot of good tasting foods for good,and the temptation is terrible..But its been controlled.

PS-If you mean to say that even in Bulking you cannot eat whatever you want,its correct,I cannot deny it.But yes,you can have your cheat days more often than not.

Cheers!

They are both difficult. I mean just sticking weight on or dropping weight is easy enough, but putting mostly muscle mass on and loosing mostly fat is equally as challenging. Though personally I find the hunger from loosing weight hard so that tips the scales for me

"Cutting"

For me it is bulking because i have to eat so much CLEAN foods to gain muscle mass. It mainly has to do with who the person is.

I think that cutting is much simplier as far as knowledge and what you need to do is concerned, it is also great because you see "gain" very quickly and you feel good about that. however you feel alot ****ter and it takes up more of your time.


Bulking on the other hand is hard because its much harder to judge your progress, and it is often very difficult to minimise fat loss. it is also harder because generally peopel train harder when bulking, if you tell me that legs/squat day isnt hard then you cant be training hard :P


OVerall cutting is easier to do properly

but bulking is much mor eenjoyable and fun
