In this episode, you'll learn everything you need to know about bulking. Bulking is essentially an intentional calorie deficit while sending a muscle building signal (lifting weights) to your body in order to gain muscle and strength, or even just to speed up your metabolic rate.
Anyone who is into improving their fitness, gaining muscle, being able to eat more and stay lean, or just hitting PRs left and right in the gym should periodically enter a bulk in order to supercharge their progress.
Subjects discussed in the episode include:
-Bulking Defined (why you need not be scared of the word "bulking")
-Who should bulk and why
-Considerations for starting a bulk
-How long to bulk
-How to calculate required calorie/macro intake (and hear how terrible I am at on the spot math equations, LOL)
-Downsides of bulking and how to mitigate
-Lifestyle considerations (sleep/stress)
-Training considerations
-Nutrition considerations
-Bulking "hacks" from a lifetime hardgainer (me!)
