The case against bulk cycles

[psychedout]

Good post! I agree completely.... although I had to figure things out the hard way.

Food for thought:
At Burger King I can get two doublecheeseburgers for $3.00. That's a quick 60 grams of protein but it's also 60 grams of fat. If I do that every week day throughout an 8 week bulking cycle that's
2,400 grams of fat
or
21,600 calories
or
6 lbs of pure fat weight gain in 8 weeks JUST FROM LUNCH! All of a sudden a Met-Rx shake looks like a good idea.

This right here is what I was speaking of...Sure you need a lot of calories to build muscle but they need to be good CLEAN calories

Gotta bump this...man this is the most sano and sage advise I have seen in a long time anywhere!! It is so true. Shit, I think i was taught this exact thing in 7th grade biology!!

If people would only think about this...they would lean towards the European style of BB instead of the American Method of "food blister body building"

Go slow..and grow...and grow....and grow

Karma for you bro

I noticed no one in the "swain brotherhood" from the training board had anything to say here. Probably at the buffet right now, so didn't catch the thread.
