Is Bulking Better Than Cutting?
That depends on your goal. If you’re looking to gain muscle and strength, then bulking is the better plan for you. If you’re looking to have a more toned body, then you want to go on a cut.
How Long Should I Bulk Before Cutting?
That depends on how much muscle you’re looking to gain. With an intelligently-designed bulk plan you can gain 0.5 kg (one-half to one pound) per week, but you should only lose 0.25kg (half a pound) per week on a cut.
What Is The Difference Between Bulk And Cutting?
Bulking is when you intentionally gain weight, preferably muscle mass with little fat. Cutting is when you lose fat while trying to mitigate muscle loss.
Does Bulking Make You Fat?
The purpose of bulking is to gain muscle mass, but you will unavoidably gain some fat. The goal is to make it as little as possible and that’s why it’s recommended your caloric surplus is no larger than 500 calories.
