When to stop bulking
I think I need to make a decision here. My original plan was to bulk until the beggining of April, and then start cutting so I could get abs for beach and pool season, because I want a lady.
My other option, and better for bodybuilding I think, is to bulk through the summer and hopefully get massive, and then cut for next spring or whenever.
Question - I’m 188 now. I was 170 with abs. If I bulked to 225, how far back down do you think I would have to go to be nice and cut?
My bodyfat isn’t that high to begin with, but do I honestly have a better chance of getting lucky with more cut physique? I know it isn’t about looks as much as personality, but I’ll try anything nowadays. Well, thats what’s going on in my head if anyone was wondering.

Well,about the lady thing,I think your thinking about it to much,and what a lady likes depends on which one you ask.I like all different kinds of men and it really doesn’t have anything to do wth how they look.I’m trying to add mass as well,been do it for about 7 weeks,was goin to till March,but liking it so much,think I might do it for awhile longer.I’m doing it clean so I don’t see alot of extra fat,but I do see muscle gains all ready,my abs actually look better since I’ve added muscle to them,I’m having trouble eating as much as I should,too much food! Concentrate on the iron and everything else will fall into place,the lady thing is usually to much trouble any way. Lotsa luck and just enjoy life.

I agree with Ms. Rock that women aren’t into looks as much as men and after all if this fat old man (me) can have a couple ladies interested in him, then you shouldn’t have any problem at 188 or 225. It’s about personality first, looks second (maybe even third).
Bulking can be fun, but keep it clean. If you put on solid mass it will take longer, but then you’ll have less to cut back on later. Good luck!
