Should I cut or bulk if I want to have a beach ready body with abs by next summer? I feel fat already, when I sit down there just two big fat rolls
you should lift, get a healthy diet and İ guess maintain, just get enough proteins and lift
>>37992017
My body is like OP kinda. I've been trying to cut but haven't been seeing much result. I figured if I tried to bulk or maintain then I'd never get abs.
>>37992030
OP is tiny, bulk, train your abs with some cable crunches, start your cut around March and you'll be fine for summer.
>>37992048
Yeah I'm tiny like that but when I sit down I have a little fat on my belly. I'll try taking your advice and see what happens.
>>37992079
no just go on a 500 calorie surplus and get on a real routine
you need some lbm before you can cut properly because right now you're skinnyfat mode which is by far the worst mode
also don't go too hard on your bulk, you don't want to end up as a fatass, there's no need to eat 5000 calories a day when your body can only put on so much muscle
>>37992105
>>37992105
but if i eat more than the daily calories my rolls are gonna get bigger
>>37992148
go on a cut, and take steroids cause you are seriously low test.
>>37992154
yeah thats not what my bf says, fuckface
>>37992159
>>37991992
you should workout,op
Honestly your noob gains would probably be pretty dope. You can probably eat at 500 calorie deficit and still gain muscle for a year
>>37992196
>deficit
>gain muscle
doesnt work that way
>>37992148
no shit but so will your muscles
if you were to go on a defecit right now you would look like absolute shit
bulk now and cut once you actually have some muscle on you
yes you will look fat for a bit, but remember that you gotta burn like the sun before you can shine like it brah
Holy fuck, I've been lurking this board and I see so many conflicting opinions every day. Someone just recommend me a book or some shit so I can figure this stuff out myself.
>>37992222
can you specify the conflicting opinions you're talking about
>>37992222
how about THE FUCKING STICKY
>>37992239
I've read the sticky, but when OP asks this question people tell him to either bulk, cut, or use fucking steroids. Which one is it? I know there's not one right way to do things, but one has to be most effective for his situation.
>>37992273
he should cut. when you start seeing fat rolls you need to cut.
>>37992284
what is he gonna cut to, exactly? skelly mode? he'd be fine with a recomp
>>37991992
if you cut, you'll be a stick figure
do starting strength. buy and read the book.
>>37992316
some people dont like looking at disgusting flab. He should cut for this summer and bulk for next.
>>37991992
do a lean bulk: eat at maintenance. my body type is similar to yours and thats what i plan on doing. bulking means youll get fatter, which sucks, and cutting is a bitch because you have very little muscle.
>>37992323
>>37992766
Flab. Cut until skin and bones then bulk. Gets best results.
>>37992897
nobody do this
please just lift weights
>>37992902
But I'm not wrong. If you start as a complete stick then bulk you'll get amazing results. That's what I did
>>37992936
starting as a stick and cutting down to a stick are two different things anon
and being a stick is not prettier than someone who is doing a recomp and has some flab while gaining muscle
>>37992766
Yeah hes better off looking like an even fatter version of this.
