    Cardio during bulking phase

    I am 5' 6", 160 lbs and been training for over four months. I have been making good progress over the past couple of months in terms of gaining bulk and also increasing my lifts every week or so.

    My diet is a healthy three meals a day, and I take the basic supplements thrice, namely:
    1. Whey Protein - Pre Workout
    2. Whey + CytoGainer - Post Workout
    3. MuscleMilk - before bed

    Even as the rest of my body is beginning to look quite good, I see my stomach bulging out and it is not a pretty sight! I am not doing cardio because I fear it will interfere in my ability to gain mass.

    Can someone advice me as to how I may continue on the bulking path without storing excessive amount of fat in my ab section? If I have to include cardio, what would be the right approach?

    Awaiting your feedback!

    increase meals to 4-6 per day, if you're bulking doing cardio defeats the purpose, you will be burning off extra calories and that is what you want to hold onto to gain weight, even when bulking keep your diet clean and if you are gaining excessive fat look over your diet and calories and make adjustments.

    Like Prince said, spread you meals out to 4-6 a day and adjust your calories so that you aren't gaining excessive fat.
    This aint my first rodeo.
