#293: When to Bulk, Cut, or Maintain

Alberto, Jeff, Brad, and Brian go through a variety of scenarios discussing what they recommend doing in each one. How beneficial are aggressive bulks? What lessons did Alberto learn from his dreamer’s bulk? What are the coaches’ thoughts on conservative versus aggressive bulking? What is the recommended ratio of lean-gaining phases to fat-loss phases? Can you gain muscle eating at maintenance? What should you do if you gain too much weight? How does Alberto decide if someone is ready to run a fat-loss phase? When do the coaches have an athlete run a fat-loss phase in the offseason? The answers to these questions and many more are covered in this episode.
