cutting/ bulking

DimebagDarrell · 04-23-2003, 12:25 AM

ive been recently looking at cutting for the next 3 months but i realized that maybe i shouldnt, i might not be big enough to be at the point where i should actually cut. is it probably safest to bulk hardcore for the next 6 weeks, then cut for 6 weeks, then bulk for 6 weeks, then cut for 6 weeks? is this a much better way of doing things? thanks!

btw im thinking about this cause im 5'10" 175 lbs (i have a really small bone structure tho, it kinda sucks), and am about 10% bf (3-point caliper test)

If you're bf is at 10% I do not see why you need to cut, unless you're going to compete soon.

Focus on gaining mass, it does not necessarily have to be a "bulk".

btw, a small bone structure is a blessing from a bodybuilding perspective.

why would that be, i thought a larger structure would be nice.....

btw i was just kinda interested because im startin to get some fat around my abdomen

If you have smaller bones and joints it creates the illusion of your muscles being bigger than they really are.

Well, then I question your true bf%, cause at 10% you should be pretty lean.

yeah the 3-point test was 8.9, but after more bulking, the one-point (which i dont trust at all) has ranged from 9 to 12 recently. stupid thing is so gay. its not a lot of fat, just sits kinda funny, i have like no fat on my chest or arms or legs, just the abdomen
