Sufficiently Bulked!
Well I have decided that my bulking time is over. This is earlier than I anticipated. Not that I wasn’t enjoying myself… its just that all my clothes are getting way too tight! I am definitely happy with the results. I gained 15 lbs, made great strength gains, appear to be bigger than I was about 4 months ago, and still managed to stay somewhat lean.
Bulking is certainly a different lifestyle, which was good for the short term. As I shift my routine to lighter weights, more reps, and less recovery time, I feel that I have lost lots of muscle endurance. I’ve become accustom to heavy weights for low reps. I think this will be a good change for my body as I gear up for the spring-summer months.
Another reason for the early bulking departure is that my busy season is starting to slow down. Although I am a CPA I do not do taxes but rather financial statement audits for public companies. Earnings season is well over and by Feb. 29th all large-accelerated filers will have filed their Form 10-K’s. Now I can focus on having slightly longer workouts and eating 6 plus meals a day to try and cut this body down again.
Now that I’ll have some more time on my hands, hopefully I can catch up with everyone and see how you’ve been progressing. I have been nearly non-existent on this site for 2 months. Thanks to those who still periodically checked in on my relatively inactive profile.
