Strength, Power, Reactivity, & Speed Discussion / Re: how early to bulk after a cut?

Thanks for the in depth response

I want to bulk to get stronger. Whenever i workout without gaining weight, i just end up spinning my wheels in place. Evidence of this in my log where I couldn't go down past 193-194lbs for like a month and didn't increase strength one bit in any lift at all.

Strength, Power, Reactivity, & Speed Discussion / how early to bulk after a cut?

So I'm about a week away from finishing my cut completely. I was 200lbs before, and now I'm 190lbs (my goal weight, but that fluctuates so I'll finish this week of cutting). I actually have the same strength levels as when I was 200lbs! This is because I ended up gaining some strength during my cut, but then lost whatever I gained.

I've been cutting at -700/day for a few months now. I want to bulk very slowly now.


So tell me what's best. Week 1 means this week right now. I'm at my goal weight right now.


Option A: Right into it
Week 1:   -700/day
Week 2:   +250/day

Option B: One or two weeks of maintenance
Week 1:  -700/day
Week 2:   0/day
Week 3:   +250/day

Option B: Slowly up the calories
Week 1:   -700/day
Week 2:   -350/day
Week 3:   0/day
Week 4:   +250/day


I'd like to do it properly this time.

15lbs in about 8 weeks? 2lb gain a week? i would have put on too much fat at that speed. great genetics man! this time around, im going to try gaining just 2lbs a month.

how fast did you lose the weight?

yes, i was able to lift 440 before (445max), but those were inconsistent peak lifts that i can do 1-2/week (if everything goes well) and rest 2-3 days in between.  i've been lifting this 440 daily for almost 2 weeks now.

holy shit when are you going to test your vert man?

I read somewhere that after 47 minutes the cortisol level starts to build up pretty fast so...

Yea it does after a certain mount of time, but the "timer" would start after the first work set. I spend like 10-15 minutes just warming up for my squat. I'm sure those warm up sets don't stress my body at all to make cortisol levels rise.

whats the purpose of doing 315x10 before 405x10? wouldnt that just wear you out before your top set? I would suggest warming up properly for a 405x10 and then dropping down to 315x10

i see only bodybuilders do this kinda stuff, whereas powerlifters and olympic lifters pyramid the way I suggested.

the romanian would say so too.

Are you crazy?! I can go to my police neighborg and install him pirated games... pretty cool eh?

my cousin was driving his unregistered car from USA overseas... cop stops him. he woulda had to pay a $5,000 fine and have his car impounded. my friend cousin him $25 bucks and the cop just said "this never happened" and left.
