Which one is better?
.
Basically the concept of bulking refers to a mass gain phase, where an individual stick to a calorie surplus/higher calorie intake in order to gain size and muscle.
💪🏻🏋🏻♀️
.
Let me explain to you the concept of both terms before I recommend which is the best based on my own personal experience of trying it out.🌚
.
Definition;
“Dirty bulking”, is where basically you eat as much as you can as want to achieve a calorie surplus,basically no tracking, eating freely/anything,almost 70% to 100% of intake was my favourite food and lifting the crap out of your weight as long as your progressing.
.
Results on me:
1)Plus side;
- I felt very strong, literally “monster like”,strength was tremendous and gained a lot of weight in a short amount of time. I ate my favourites every day and in any amount I liked.
2)Minus;
- overtime I became very cautious of my body causing me to be stressed, I realised the weight I gained was mostly fat and very less amount of muscles mass because of the quality of my food.
- became super sluggish post workout,acne due to the amount of food and also the content I realised I’m super sensitive.Plus felt very unhealthy.
- cutting down was super hard and the results was disappointing as it didn’t achieve what I expected and sticking to my deficit was really hard as I was too used to giving into my cravings.
.
“Clean Bulking”, is the total opposite where you keep track even when you are on a surplus,tracking, keeping you intake healthier in terms of nutrition,protein, carbs ,fats and also moderate consumption of you favourite food
(60- 70% healthier) and being on a programmed progressive overload when it came to my workouts.
.
Results:
1)Plus ;
- Still felt strong, gradually did improve my performance took a longer time to gain weight but this time my fat% was not as high and I gained a quality muscle mass due to proper tracking.
- felt better mentally, wasn’t very cautious,felt healthier as I added all the essential nutrition needed, and no healthier trouble or acne issues.
.
So which one is better?
Answer: PRIORITISE THE QUALITY OVER THE SIZE.
