When do you guys decide to stop bulking?

[The Iotola]

I just wrapped up my cycle and PCT. After PCT total gains kept were 15 pounds. I have been bulking for about 3 months now. Its not die hard crazy bulking, but its good enough.

When do most of you say its cutting time? Im a bit worried that once I begin cutting ill start loosing muscle and watch my weight plummet. I know its all mental, but Id' like to hear what the others have to say.

for me it was when I couldn't see my abs any more. Also when I couldn't differentiate between my bi's, tri's and delts. I love seeing the cuts!

Yes I agree, when the Abs disappear its time to stop . However my bis,tris,delts always seem to stay relatively lean.

about a month after PCT is when i start cutting..not a cutting cycle..but cutting....depending on what i took as a "bulker" will depend when i start my cutting cycle time on = time off (including bloodwork)...keep in mind when you start cutting the weight you are loosing or will loose initially will be all water retention...(if you didnt use an anti during your bulking cycle). Look at it this way...you will "look" bigger cut up then a walking marshmellow man..

I stop gaining on bulkers after 8-10 wks, after that it seems like I just put on fat. I still like to run 16 wk bulkers though, but I drop down from 5 ks cals for the 1st 8-10 wks to about 3 k for the last 6-8 wks. I think staying on a little longer helps your body get used to holding some of that mass.

Currently I'm running a half bulk/half cut cycle. I actually just started the cutting phase today, so I'll let everyone know how it goes. I can't resist those 1st couple monthes of bullking, it's too much fun.

 

[viczeva]

bulking to me seems much easier than cutting. im afraid to cut, lol. i guess ill do 3 months cycles of each, see how my body adapts. i can defently feel the gains while bulking though. i love it! if cutting doesnt work, im getting lipo, fuck it.lol.

Yep me too. That is usually around 230lb for me. I'll never get that big again. I can still see abs at 230, they just look like shit.

Well, if you mean going from cuttung to bulking, it depends on how far away from where you want to be. I usually begin around the 3rd week in April. If you don't get let yourself go too much when bulking, then cutting shouldn't take too long. I try to be at in the neighborhood of where I really wanna be by June, and just tighten things up a lil if need be after that.

LOL good one

I always start cutting in March...It's just the way I do it so I can be ready for summer weather...
But I don't think I will ever be doing another serious all out bulking cycle again.

And I thought it was hard to find 4X shirts...I guess I need to stop lift when the 4X's get too tight. LOL

I stop bulking when I can't see little Johnny anymore.

Little? I hope that's a Freudian slip. lol I hear there's pills to fix that.

The 120 degree heat in the summer is a pretty big incentive to keep my weight down. If I get too heavy I get Sleep Apnea. It scares the shit out of me.

Seriously tho.... I stop bulking whenever I get to where I want to be.

Im a very goal oriented person. I dont set goals very often... but when I do, I have the will power and motivation of a god and I wont stop until I get there... period.

So if I play on gaining X pounds, I bulk until I hit it unless I encounter an injury or something unforeseen that prevents me from reaching my goal.


So to answer your question... I bulk as long as it takes

 

[TRYNGETBIG32]

BTW, PCT stands for post-cycle-therapy.
