a bucket of chicken from KFC, all-you-can-eat pizza, hamburgers, cheeseburgers, french fries.

Anything that was calories, I went after it.

And I got my body weight up to 240 pounds, which for me is incredibly heavy.

Mind Pump: Raw Fitness Truth

That's like a really heavy body weight.

Just for people, for reference right now, I weigh about 220 pounds.

Mind Pump: Raw Fitness Truth

So I got up to 240 pounds and I was definitely bigger for sure.

My body fat percentage had gone up so much that of the weight that I gained, and I believe I gained close to 20 something pounds.

Mind Pump: Raw Fitness Truth

So I put on quite a bit of weight in a very short period of time.

Mind Pump: Raw Fitness Truth
2862: Why Your Bulk Is Making You Fat (And How to Fix It)

The vast majority of it was body fat.

Mind Pump: Raw Fitness Truth

It was like I gained four pounds of muscle and it was like 18 pounds or something like that of body fat.

And I remember feeling so deflated.

Mind Pump: Raw Fitness Truth
2862: Why Your Bulk Is Making You Fat (And How to Fix It)

It kind of defeats the purpose.

Mind Pump: Raw Fitness Truth
2862: Why Your Bulk Is Making You Fat (And How to Fix It)

Yeah, and I was like, what did I do wrong?

Mind Pump: Raw Fitness Truth
2862: Why Your Bulk Is Making You Fat (And How to Fix It)

And what I did wrong is I didn't know what my maintenance was.

Mind Pump: Raw Fitness Truth
2862: Why Your Bulk Is Making You Fat (And How to Fix It)

I didn't know how much to go up.

Mind Pump: Raw Fitness Truth
2862: Why Your Bulk Is Making You Fat (And How to Fix It)
