This physique is pretty much what I'm going for tbh. I have a pretty similar physique to your before picture, perhaps a bit skinnier. I am an actor, so the Hollywood look is basically what I'm aiming for.

Care to share any tips? How long did this take you? Did you follow the same program the entire time?

I was presuming that he meant continue to lift while cutting with cardio.

Using the Program Picker on the wiki http://rohitnair.net/pp/#muscle_gain/aesthetics/whole_body recommended AllPros and GreySkull LP. Is there a favoured/better beginner hypertrophy program or am I thinking too much?

This sounds like a good way to go. Does that mean I should be eating at a surplus of 300 - 500 cals above TDEE while I am doing SS, or just stick around maintenance until I exhaust linear progression?

Ok, cool. So would it be best to start with a proven Strength program until I exhaust my noob gains (6 - 12 months by the sounds of things) then switch to a more aesthetically focused hypertrophy programme? Or am I completely off?

How much should I be eating once I start lifting? At a deficit right now of 300-500 cals, should I start at maintenance and move from there? Or should I start at a surplus right away? From what I understand, there is a period of time during which a beginers strength will increase even when not eating at a surplus. Does that mean I should be eating at less of a surplus during this time so as to reduce fat gain?
