after 12 weeks of bulking

[triplec223]

what's up everyone. I've never posted pictures of myself on here, so here goes...my digitial camera isn't the greatest quality, so the pics are little blurry.

I have been bulking and using a 3x a week full-body routine for about 12 weeks. I am pretty pleased with my progress and will probably start a cutting phase at week 15. I am 6'4", 175-180 and I would like to stay at around 175.

What kinda progress did you make?

well I've been lifting pretty regularly for the last two and a half years. I used to be really skinny b/c of my height (160 lbs.) but I've gained a lot of muscle since then. However, before the summer started I pretty much hit a wall and stopped making any gains. I got pretty frustrated, starting hitting the weights even more . After finding this forum, I found out I had been overtraining and neglecting my diet. I have since used advice from you guys and started a bulking phase which I have made great gains during. I have gotten much stronger and I think my ph ysique has gotten much better as well.

You still have very low body fat% considering you have just finished bulking.
Perhaps next time you bulk you may consider eatting more and You'll get much better results.

Looks like you could still bulk up quite a bit more, you def have some good definition, but your weight is pretty low for your height, just my opinion of course

ok thanks for the advice. Before I found this forum, I was eating like a bird and working out like crazy. Thus, I hit a wall and my gains stopped. I guess I will probably extend the bulking phase for a couple of months. Thanks for the comments.
