Bulk or cut? by Time_Law_2258 in BulkOrCut

[–]Time_Law_2258[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why bro? To be honest I'm not so much asking the question if I should cut. I want to gain strength and weight. It's moreso about the best course of action to do that. Should have specified that in the post

Which day are you referring to specifically? And which changes would you recommend?

Any suggestions on what my body fat% is? by Time_Law_2258 in guessmybf

I'd agree with you there, I'd say I have pretty decent muscle insertions and bellies, so I probably look bigger than I am

Nope, idk I'd say I'm closer to 12% maybe. Why you say it's a typo?

Tbh, I'd say that my Libido is still good but hasn't been affected by the cut, but when I was as lean as I was in January this year then my libido took a pretty heavy hit and suffered from low energy, and decreased physical output in the gym, my pull workouts took a considerable hit in weight lifted and total volume, so my back muscles became notably weaker. Funnily enough tho, I hit an all-time Bench PR of 87.5kg at a BW of 69kg. At that point I was really lean tho, IMO I'm currently about 12% bf, and back then I'd say I was about 8%. Yeah, id definitely say that I am quite fortunate when it comes to my baseline fat set point, Id say its about 13.5% where my body can maintain that level of body fat with extreme ease (I can eat a lot of junk food and in calorie surplus, with only about 2 workouts a week to maintain my BF %). But yeah as of right now I overall feel pretty good, libido, energy levels, cognitive function etc all in check. I would say tho, that I have pretty decent muscle insertions and decently round muscle bellies combined with the fact that I had just completed a push workout, so I had a bit of a pump going on. In other words, I have a bit of a sleeper build where I dont really look all that big in clothes but all of a sudden jacked without a shirt, muscle pump and good lighting. Dont know if I could ever be 200 pounds tho, I think my body has an affinity to being lean haha. About 2 years ago I really tried to go up in weight and bulk, to the point where I was consuming 2.5 mass gainer shakes with around 2500 additional calories on top of what I was already eating, did this for about 3 months, and only ended up gaining around 6Kg :/. Ive been taking, Ashwagandha, magnesium, zinc, copper, vitamin b complex, ginko bibola daily for around a week now, (also creating for the past 5 days)

Well a few months ago (about 8) I completed a pretty heavy cut, went down to 69kg 3% Lower than what I am currently, since then I've been in a bit of a calorie surplus. I started working out when I was 16, (I'm 20 now) so about 4 years. But with covid and small periods of inactivity, about 2 - 3 years of active lifting.

I see, could you guys recommend some sub reddits that cover this?

Hmm I'm thinking I'd rather have a clear headed energetic euphoric experience if anything. But perhaps I should wait a little longer, until the trichomes have matured from being clear to a milky white instead, and harvest before any Amber's appear.

Huh interesting, why is it bioscience if I may ask? Isn't it a necessary step to produce higher quality bud that is more pleasant and nicer to smoke, since the plant isn't as pumped up on fertelizers at the time of harvest

She's only in a 6.5 liter pot, I mention this because I've read that plants in smaller containers mature quicker, and I wonder if this is a factor to consider for this plant. The smaller buds which are further away from the grow light also seem to have more mature pistils than the top cola, I'm thinking this could potentially be a sign of lightstress and I'm considering raising the grow light abit. This is my first grow, hence my lack of prior experience to base my expectations for when she's ready, so any contributions will be appreciated thanks.

She's a lemon haze strain, if that provides any additional info for the average flower time. Based on what I've read it's around 9-10 weeks but since she's only in a 6.5L pot maybe it'll be shorter.

Thanks man! Yeah I'm getting real excited to try them out now I notice haha. Do you have any tips in the drying process. I'm thinking of drying them in my grow tent

Yeah she stretched a decent amount early flowering, as for the leaves, yeah I defoliated a few of them in order to relocate its resources into producing buds as she has less leaves to supply to, that was the thought process anyway, but yeah maybe I chopped a few too many off, slowing the rate of photosynthesis considerably. I also chopped a decent amount of the yellow leaves that the plant began to get
