Hey guys what do you think? Should I keep up my bulk or start maintaining then cut? Open for suggestions, thanks.
Keep bulking dude, prerty certain I can see your ribs.
Do you think you can loose the fat in spring? Nothing wrong with a winter bulk but you're getting quite the gut on you.
I'd start running a small deficit desu senpai, but I just hate getting fat, so there's that.

Im sure i can go on the cut in the spring. Idk the gut does seem to be getting worse
>>35042341
I'd start lifting weights first Tbh
>>35042363
Haha man i've been on p/p/l consistently for 4 months now been on/off past year, hopefully now i'll see a difference
>>35042346
This. Just turn the fat into muscle later on bro
>>35042377
serously though I'd either eat at maintenance and do cardio occasionally.Or just eat at a deficit you are starting to get fat.As a beginner you don't have to bulk.
>>35042388
Noted. Thanks!
>>35042395
Be consistent with your routine and diet as well.
>>35042341
I would say maintain then cut.
It'll be easier to lose the gut with less fat.
>>35042341
Never bulk past 20% body fat. Nigga, you're well over 20%. Cut.
>>35042341
You look absolutely horrible.
>>35043323
>well over 20%.
really?
not him, but that is about what i would consider 20%
is he actually "well over" 20%?
>>35043391
He's at least 25%. People tend to under estimate their body fat %.
start cutting you're fat
definitely cut
>>35042341
When you get that fat it gets harder and harder to build muscle. Your hormones will be fucked if you bulk anymore.
>>35042341
Cut, for fuck's sake. You're gonna start getting stretch marks if you don't stop gaining (mostly fat) right now. It's no fun at all to have them around your navel and then a pouch when you cut to boot.
>>35043411
>People tend to under estimate their body fat %.
Just like /fit/ tends to over estimate someone elses body fat %
>>35043501
He is legit 25%.
>>35042341
Eat at a small surplus of no more than 200 cals and add a day of cardio
>>35042341
You should train.
>bulk
You're supposed to gain muscle when you do that kid
>>35042341
start lifting might be a good start OP
>>35043539
this OP to be honest lifting is good for you
>>35042341
>fatass
>im bulking!!!
Cut then slow bulk but stretch for the love of god everyday it does wonders to you boi
>>35042341
What bodyfat percent is this? Curious.
>>35043642
23-24
>>35043642
30%
>>35042341
Why the fuck do you idiots claim to care about aesthetics when you think it's okay to look like this fat shit for half the year? This fucking board.
>>35043662
Everyone here bulks until they are land whales, then they cut too hard and lose any muscle they might have gained while losing the fat. So they look the same year after year.
>>35043650
Hmm ok
>>35043651
I'm at 27% according to caliper test I had friend do on me repeatedly, and I am fatter looking. So I doubt that dude is too near that.
>>35043662
Some people care only about summer looks.
>>35043711
Calipers are useless unless you're below 18-20%. Not accurate if you're too fat.
>>35043722
Yeah I do notice its difficult around the pec area to be unbiased, though the belly and thigh area are straight forward.
From what I have seen of 30% bf pics I am that, and its more than op.
>>35043391
>>35043411
>>35043642
I ha e an impedance scale that gives bf% at +/-0.5%. I'm at 17-18% atm and you can see my abs a little. /fit/ would tell me I'm at 14-15%.
I'm pretty confident OP is very close to 23%
>>35043745
Best not to worry about body fat% until you are leaner. Doesn't matter, just lose the fat and worry about this shit later.
>>35043714
What about strength in mind and body tho? What about commitment to not leaving your wife without a husband by keeping your weight and diet under control, eating heart healthy foods like whole grains and fruits and vegetables? Are you all doing this for women? If you just want to fuck, why not buy a whore? Hookers can't judge you in any valid ways bro.
>>35042341
Definitely cut you fat fuck
>>35043757
Yeah bro, I don't know if its "too slow" a loss, but I was also lifting for half this cut (the recent half)
I was 240 in April, and now I am 216. In this past month I went from a typical set of 6-8 of 115 on decline to now 135-145 same reps, and from 250 on leg press (fast then slow eccentric without locking out) to now doing the machine max of 475 lbs on leg press. I'll go to single legs soon. (Wrist injury and shoulder mobility keeping me from squats, working on shoulders tho).
>>35043783
Slow weight loss is better for natties. If you're losing weight while increasing your strength, then you're doing it right. Means you're building muscle at the same time. Good job, keep it up.
>>35043810
I'll try breh. I'm losely still counting calories today even.
