LOL - You get too used to stuffing ya face though don't you.

^^^ I wish this was true for me, Ive been bulking for a couple of months now and the thought of my next meal is making me gag, cant wait till its time to cut again LOL

I used to be exactly like you. Give it say 6 months and you just can't stop eating. I could easily smash 3000 cals around the evening time.

Cheers, I just seem to change my mind all to often of what I want to be doing. At the end of the day, I'm in no rush, I'm gaining strength and size, so I must have it right by now.

It is impossible to say.

Sounds like your unsure on how you should be dieting.

Have a read of this article it should give you a better idea of what you need to be doing.

Monitor and adjust accordingly also.

Its impossible to say how much. Diet, genetics, training, assistance from meds, cardio etc etc all pays a part.

As long as some of its muscle though :)

I can't stand it when i lose weight though, feels like im wasting away. Had a right gut on me, then got flu/cold within a week i had faint abs showing lol.

Don't think i lost much muscle either....RESULT!

LOL i have that, getting ill is like an easy mini cut. I feel I'm wasting away also when you get the first 4 abs popping through. But then I worry about my belly getting big ! I cant win.

If your naturally a skinny bloke you should be able to cut the waist down very quick. Just eat like fcuk for a few weeks then spend a week cutting. Repeat until progress stops.

Cheers tac, this is what I thought I read, so my gains are in line with this. I feel better now :)

I can't see the point in eating everything and putting on fat too. Just my opinion.

One pound a month (natural), sustained over a period of time in someone who ISNT new to lifting (or putting on 'muscle memory' gains) after a break sounds about right to me mate.

1lb a week without some of it being water/fat is unrealistic except in newcomers and those using chemical assistance IMO

strikalite

When you were eating lots of extra cals, where did you tend to put on the weight? IMO unless you are a total newbie(and you're not)then consuming vast amounts of extra cals non-assisted is pretty pointess...your genes, bodytype and frame will only really allow you to build so much muscle naturally, it's hard to know what that could be but the longer you are training and trying different methods the more you get to know your own body...your own test level 'could' be average so this again may limit your progress..

Waist, exactly my point.
