    I would imagine you'd wait until you achieve your goals for bulking.

    I agree with this....for example if you are an endo so your goal must be not to go to high bf% then slowly bulk and for example put a goal not to go more than 13-14% bf so when you hit your dead line switch to cutting..

    good to hear lads, I've been told though after bulking up, even if its only been a short period of time u should leave your body get used to the new weight, even up to a couple of months to get used to it b4 u start cutting.

    I only put on about 8lbs on the 7 weeks, like I mentioned earlier I wasn't looking for massive gains so I can't see why my body would need time to adapt to such a small weight increase.

    But what do I know.............

    8 lbs in 7 weeks for a natural person are already massive gains.....

    cheers buddy, even though I've been training and eating smart I'd imagine 2-3 pounds out of the 8 would have to be fat whuch sucks!!!

    Shouldn't take too long to sweat off though.
