advice - bulk or cut?

[ow3nn]

i've been bulking for 3 months and gained 7kilos from 59kg to 66kg.

thing is, my face (mostly cheeks) has been getting fatter according to many people. what do?

i've been lifting seriously for 3 months as well.

is my body too skinny for a 15 year old?

If i was you I would bulk... I mean you're 15 new to lifting seriously don't worry to much about cuting since there's not to much to cut into but I'm not you so answer these questions: if you were to go on a cut how long would it be? Goal weight/look? If your body genetically stores fat on your face first then anytime someone says anything about your face looking fatter will you go on a cut? Does what people say matter enough to influence your decision?... Just think about it for a little while then come to your own decision that YOU will be happy with. Because if your not happy with yourself then you probably won't put in as much as if you were

At 15 you're primed to grow, raging hormones that want nothing more than to add some of the best muscle mass you will ever get. Eat like a champ, lift heavy, and sleep well.

Keep packing on the muscle! You're only 15!

66kgs at age 15 I think it's too fat.. But you're tall 'n I see you in your pics, I think your body is good..

And this is why we take more than just weight into account when judging...

I think for a 15 year old, your body is just fine. Keep the workout progress up and you'll eventually understand what kinda body type you're want.

I would definitely go on bulking for a little bit until i actually have some muscles to cut down and show. I also think considering you are 15, you are in a pretty good shape. I was 242lbs when i was 15. *Thank god these days are gone*

-Keep bulking brah.
-Also good job

[ow3nn]

wow, i never thought that i'd get so much encouragement from the guys here. i always thought i was too skinny because of all the people on this site previously mocking my weight and saying it was 'too skinny'. thank you everyone for the kind words

Icf 5x5 and bulk until 175-190
