Guys I actually did a successful 7 month lean bulk. Gained like 18 pounds and I’m a lot leaner than I was at 185 last time. Started a cut three weeks ago gonna go until the end of August, rinse and repeat

Until you fall off from gym and eat like shit for a week or so then you realize how easy it is to feel like you’ve let yourself go

yes. i will randomly lose 10lbs and gain 15 back. happened a lot when i was in highschool. it’s due to my body being in survival mode all the time and not eating regularly

It ends when you are satisfied with how far you’ve come. I’ve virtually looked the same in the last year (I’ve plateaued hard and I still look pretty average to in a large T shirt), but have come to terms with the fact that this is the best I can do for now. There are other faucets to life besides fitness, looking lean or semi muscular is pretty frickin dope already, just focus your energy on other hobbies so it doesn’t feel overwhelmingly important to get “bigger”.

Luckily I can eat the same things every day and not get tired of them so it’s kind of a cheat code
