I feel like i'm becoming obese now and it's beginning to affect my face.
Should I do a cut or keep bulking?

What's so funny? I am obese?
You need another year in the gym putting o muscle at a minimum before you should even think of cutting. You have the muscle mass of a teenage boy and your chest is way undersized.
I don't want to get fat though.
>You have the muscle mass of a teenage boy
I'm definitely not big and i've only been gymcelling for a little over a year (way less than that properly) but you clearly haven't seen what the average teenage boy or even early 20s zoomer looks in real life like.
Most teenage boys aren't roided Gymshark athletes, anon.
fricking idiot
average greg doucette fan
What does that mean?
youre moronic and have major body dysmorphia, and people in this thread are fricking with you
What does me asking if I should cut have anything to do with that? This is my first ever bulk so I don't know what to do.
You’re right, he does have body dysmorphia but I’m also not fricking with him when I say he should spend another year lifting before thinking about a cut. The fact that he thinks he needs to cut is exactly why you’re right about him having body dysmorphia.
So doing things the way everyone has always done them is body dysmorphia? If I bulked for another year I would be fat as frick. I'm already nearing 20% bodyfat I think.
>I'm already nearing 20% bodyfat I think.
You know what, you’re right, you definitely don’t have a massively warped view of your own physique.
It's just a simple question bro, chill. I have love handles or overtrained obliques idk.
hmm, maybe i'll wait a little longer.
>I have love handles
You’re insane.
I hate my body but thank God it's because I'm fat and not mentally ill (yet)
No you don't need to cut. I know a couple worker who thinks his 3lb chub is gonna make a difference and then binge drinks the deficit back. Poor guy
Looking good IMO. You can cut but it will pause your progress for a while, decisions decisions. Not sure what's the season there but you could moderately bulk up to Spring and then cut for Summer like most of people.
Thanks. Ideally i'd like to get to like 12% bodyfat before I start bulking again. Am I close to 20% now?
I look very similar to you, and am only 13% bodyfat, I doubt you are any higher.
15-18% probably
You definitely have enough muscle to cut and look good. Although you really haven't changed much since the last pic. Gotta get back to that slow bulk after the cut ASAP though
Thanks. Am I not a lot fatter now than I was? Meaning I could have built some muscle but it's just not showing?
You look like you went up maybe 1 or 2 percent and added a few pounds of muscle. If you feel like you're getting obese when you look like this, then your body dysmorphia is on full blast, and you're a few steps away from an eating disorder. Gotta get your mental right OP.
So I don't have visible abs because they're underdeveloped and not because i'm fat?
I feel like my waist is very subhuman currently.
Yeah dude, you went from like 16% to 18% and your abs are underdeveloped. I can still see the outline of abs for picrel ITT though too. Honestly you look pretty good. Strongly consider why people on here are calling you insane for calling yourself fat.
But isn't 18% when you should start cutting? Like that's seriously going to affect my face, no? I think I should cut to 12% and then bulk back up to 18%?
20% is ok by normie standards but you lose a lot of facial definition.
When are you planning on doing your spree shooting anon? Asking so I can make sure I’m not at the mall that day.
Why would I want to do that?
Lol he's saying that you're detached from reality anon and that you're going to go crazy if you keep up this mindset
Everybody cares how others perceive them. What world do you live in?
That's why we all go to the gym.
>Everybody cares how others perceive them.
No lol
>What world do you live in?
Not the Patrick Bateman world you seem to be living in
>That's why we all go to the gym.
I go to the gym for me.
>I go to the gym for me.
Sure and women wear yoga pants and post their ass selfies to instagram for themselves too.
I do care. However I'm not letting it consume me and warp my view of reality
I just want to get a gf/ casual sex. It's a goal a lot of low-value men have and it doesn't make me a bad person.
Do you see every single day how many fat, poorly dressed, balding men who haven’t seen a gym in decades are walking around with wives and girlfriends? They’re all having sex. If you think that a difference of 5% body fat is what is going to make or break you getting laid then I will ask again, when are you planning your spree shooting so I can stay home?
they ain't fricking bad b***hes Black person
You work with what you got. I can't compete socially but my desperation can lead me to looking good compare to other men.
Also don't talk about wives lol, anyone can a wife.
>I can't compete socially but my desperation can lead me to looking good compare to other men.
>anyone can a wife.
You really don’t know how psychotic this sounds do you?
at this point you're just gaslighting lmao. Stop trying to be a psychologist. I'm a 21 year old incel that wants to get laid. It's not exactly on the same level as trying to conquer the world and kill israelites or go on a shooting spree or whatever else you can think of.
>I'm a 21 year old incel that wants to get laid.
I was aware of that from your first post anon, you just have no concept of how to achieve that goal. Fitness is great but you don’t need it to get laid. All you need to do is install tinder and strike out twenty times before you stumble upon a girl who will throw you a bone. If you have some sort of beauty standard in your head for these women, you need to drop that shit now. That’s pure narcissism talking and it will lead you down a lonely path because the truth is the girls you think you deserve are probably far out of your league and they can sure as frick smell the incel on you.
I have no real friends so I can't take good pics for Tinder.
I'd rather try at bars or clubs.
And i've been approached and asked out by good looking girls so I know what my league is.
I don't even have high standards. 5/10 face, not fat, some breasts, ass and hips.
And yet you are still an incel so don’t blame me when I say I don’t actually believe you’re a reliable narrator of your own life because this sounds just like someone else we all know.
>no friends
>too good to use the most wildly successful dating app ever made
>I swear I’ve been asked out by hot girls but I somehow never got laid because they found out I. Actually a creep once they got past the surface layer of my looks
>I swear my standards aren’t that high!
I do t think you need a gym, I think you need a therapist.
ok lmao, if you read my other thread you'd know what my problem actually is - lack of self-confidence.
I don't think i'm too good for Tinder. I tried it but since I have no friends I only used an autist selfie. Still did decently and got some girls to agree to go on dates with me (I cancelled and unmatched) but you can only do so well with a close-up selfie of your face.
Elliot was full of himself and only talked about hot blonde sorority bawds. I'm nothing like him.
>I think you need a therapist
yeah cause a therapist will cure his autism
just let him gym in piece

You genuinely seem more obsessed with how other will perceive you than doing the necessary things to get to your supposed objective which means you’re out of touch with reality and have very warped perspectives. All traits associated with the modern spree shooter.
Are you estimating your bodyfat percentage by your abs? Because I don't think there's a lot of fat covering them, they just seem really weak and underdeveloped.
Well my abs looked visible in the before pic, right? I guess it was different lighting though. I also have love handles.
I very rarely train my abs tbh, need to start doing it more.
His entire body looks weak and under developed. Seems like he doesn’t know how to actually make gains.
You're autistic. Stop pleasuring your bussy to roidtrannies on instagram and see how normal men do.
He looks like he skips chest days but overall that's a good physique for someone that's been going as long as he says he has.
Work chest. Your overall physique is nice and I wouldnt cut if I were you
You should bulk and mini cut cycles if you're afraid of getting fat, anon
Nice arms but it looks like you are lacking chest and back. What's your height and weight btw? That's the most important part. Can't really tell anything from a cropped image without height, weight and measurements.
I think last time I checked I was 77kg but my weighing scale is broken so I don't know my current weight. I'm exactly 6'0.
Well, 77kg is a little light for 6' buddy. If I were you, I wouldn't go for a cut and start training the areas you are lacking like chest and back. After devoloping those areas, you will get into a better shape and you won't feel like a fat frick
Damn, I thought my back was my best feature. Funnily enough I actually train chest and back the hardest. I don't know why that's the case.
Btw when weighing myself, I should do it in the mornings, right?
You’re barely heavier than I am and I clock around 5’9, and I dealt with the same schizo thoughts as well. Ultimately everyone ITT is right, your perception is completely fricked and I say that as someone who is still the same. I unironically went an entire week before while working an active warehouse job eating almost nothing last year because I thought I was getting too fat at 155 with a 15% or so bodyfat. Cutting is only necessary if you’re a strength lifter on a heavy bulk, which neither of us are. It really is all in your head anon.
If thats the case then you’re well above the flabby, piss poor average that still gets their dick wet.
but you probably have more muscle than me? I want to stay at a healthy 12 - 17% bodyfat level.
Jesus what a disgusting fat frick

In case it hasn't been made clear: no, do not cut. It's in your head, pick another target for PRs and don't even think about cutting until you hit that mark. Besides, it's going to be the holiday season soon and your attempt at cutting is going to be middling at best thanks to that.
