I've been bulking since somewhere between late July or early august. I'm 5'9 and have gone from 110 lbs to 145. I'm at around 18% bodyfat and it's making me self conscious since I've never been able to squeeze my fat and wiggle it around until now, and it seems to be quite a bit of pudge.
Should I cut now for a little and begin bulking again in spring or should I just continue bulking until march or so?
Thanks.

bulk hard dude you got no mass
youll feel fat, youll get fat, but on the other side after you cut youll be beast
im talking a solid year bulk
Bulk through winter. I think if you cut you'll lose a lot of your strength and end up looking really skinny. I'm 5'9 and 160lbs. Trying to hit 170 by end of the year.

I'll have to deal with "I think you should start losing weight" comments and shit though. Is it worth it?

Do you think it's worth it? Are a few "you should lose weight comments" from clueless dyels really enough to discourage you from making it?

Fuck it.
My year long bulk journey begins today.
Sure you can cut now but honestly think of the long term mate. In 2 years time will you be happier that you bulked now or cut.

If i were you i'd cut for a month or so, it should let you get to 15% bodyfat and then you can clean bulk
>>35161699
Yeah, everyone else is saying to do a year-long bulk and I agree, but you should do a short 1-2 month cut first.

Thanks for the help, guys.
Unfortunately, clean bulking is not an option as I go toa boarding school. So, guess I'll just stick to peanut butter sandwiches and milk

Must say, you look very good for that level of strength
Keep up what you're doing. I like some other anons here think you should cut for a month or so.

Thanks a lot, buddy. Getting bigger feels great.
I wish they were all much higher, especially my squat. But I'm content with my deadlift for now.

I'm still so small, but the flab is incredibly irritating. Cutting right not will suck, I can't wait to bulk again

clean/lean bulking isn't what foods you eat, it just means a small surplus. Around 200-500 is a lean bulk and 500+ is a dirty bulk.

yeah bulk youre not even fat.
5 ft 9?
Yeah dude, you don't need to worry about a cut until you're a good 175-180 pounds, and even then it there wouldn't be much to cut.
Keep growing, a cut is pointless if you don't have a good foundation of muscle to cut down to.
