  • What is the difference between lean bulking and dirty bulking? 🍎🍔
    I feel like there are a lot of misconceptions when it comes to lean bulking and dirty bulking.
    When it comes to lean bulking, a lot of people think that you have to eat clean and you're not allowed to eat any junk food, whereas you can kind of just go ham when you're dirty bulking.
    But what they actually mean, is how much weight you gain on a weekly basis. You can eat junk food on a lean bulk, but usually you still would be eating an x amount of calories everyday to make sure you're not gaining too much weight every week to minimise unnecessary fat gain.
    The reason why junk food is associated with a dirty bulk is because usually there is no limit when it comes to food. And junk food specifically is extremely high calorie and can easily push you over your daily calorie intake.
    So as long as you're getting your nutritional needs on a daily basis cutting, maintaining, or bulking, don't be afraid to fit in your indulgences as long as you're hitting your calories!

    A lot of people need to hear this. I gave up my first bulk (and technically even the cut after as a result - cals too low) because I wouldn't let myself eat a single bite of junk food and would force myself to eat like 200+ grams of protein, which turned me off. Only later, after a much needed mental shift I realised what you said here in the vid and everything has been easier since (still lazy lol). Thanks for these shorts man, you make great content! ❤

      I can only speak from experience, but i think as long as you’re doing it properly, it has a positive impact - especially for self confidence
      I started getting leaner and looking better which helped a lot for my self confidence. And because i had expert guidance from a coach, i was doing it safely so there was no harm to my mental health!

    • @totallynotpaul6211
      @totallynotpaul6211 8 дней назад

      Generally men don't really have mental issues from calorie tracking. If I had to guess, it's because men usually track calories with muscle growth as their top priority and fat loss secondary. Meanwhile women often track calories with only fat loss in mind which can quickly spiral.

    As I got older I started to prefer lean bulking, as for me it’s less hard on the body. It also allows me to keep my habits pretty much the same (similar foods, number of meals) because the increase in calories is much lower. I noticed that it’s then easier for me to switch to cutting, because I’m usually just changing the amount of rice, couscous, oats etc I’m having in my meals :)

    It's a gift and a curse having Super high metabolism... on the brightside I can eat as much as I want whenever I want without gaining any type of fat. However the downside is, that it can be super difficult putting on any type of muscle mass. For reference, I weigh 145 lbs atm but was 120 before dirty bulking for a month. Right now my target calorie count is 4500 calories a day with 140 grams of protein.

      @totallynotpaul6211 actually I don't gain fat much, if I ever do, it almost immediately gets turned into muscle. I only WAS able to gain that amount of weight by just Dirty bulking like a maniac. I would stuff my face with 4k calories everyday and only 2 of my meals would actually be considered "healthy" I admit this because it seems fast food is the easiest way for me to gain weight. After I hit my target goal which is soon, I will be staying on a regular keto like diet.

      to gain muscle mass. you don’t get much muscle mass during a cut because you’re consuming less calories, but a cut gets you leaner. during a bulk you’re trying to put on a good amount of weight (mainly muscle weight) whilst trying to keep the fat to a minimum but you’ll get a little bit of fat with the muscle during a bulk

      There’s no official definition but this one makes the most sense because overall calories will have the largest effect on your physique followed by macro nutrients

    How much of a daily calorie surplus is a lean bulk?

    • @arshadalam4457
      @arshadalam4457 Год назад

      likely 200-300, but the better metric is gaining 1 pound a week

    • @l_eel_em
      @l_eel_em  Год назад +1

      Yeah usually it would be a range of 100-500 calorie surplus with a gain of 100-500g perk! You could gain at the lower end if youre training performance is still good and you dont want to gain weight too fast! Otherwise you can be a bit more assertive if you find that training is slowing down and you dont mind pushing that body weight up a little!

    How much weight should you be gaining per week on a lean bulk?

    • @l_eel_em
      @l_eel_em  Год назад +1

      Anywhere between 100-500g per week!
      You could stick to the lower end to minimise as much fat gain as possible, otherwise you can be a bit more assertive if you feel like training progress is slowing down and you want to keep progressing at a steady rate ☺️

    So how much of a calorie surplus still counts as a lean bulk and not a dirty bulk?

    • @l_eel_em
      @l_eel_em  Год назад +1

      Id stick with anywhere between a 100-500 calorie surplus with a 100-500g gain in weight per week! The rate at which you gain between those ranges depends on how much fat unnecessary gain you want vs. how well you want progress with training!

    Let’s say my maintenance is at 2500 and I added a 300kcal surplus, but after a while, my weight plateaued at 2800, so I kept increasing my kcal and at the end of my bulk I reached 3400, where I was not gaining weight anymore.
    Now I want to cut because I have 19% bodyfat 😢, should I cut below 2500kcal or gradually decreasing my kcal from 3400 ?

    • @axelge1877
      @axelge1877 Год назад +2

      Under 2500 but dont cut your calories immediately, let your body adapt so lower the calories each week. That way you dont lose a bunch of muscle. Keep grinding king and get that summer body💪💯

    • @l_eel_em
      @l_eel_em  Год назад +1

      Depends how quickly you want to cut!
      If you dont want to waste time being in a deficit too long and get back to building muscle asap, you could run an aggressive cut which is what i did!
      I went from 3300 cals straight to 1400 for 6 weeks. You wont lose muscle if you’re keeping your protein high and still training hard and trying to progress. Your body will have a lot of stored energy from the surplus youve been in, so it doesnt actually get that difficult until 4 weeks in, and by then youre nearly done with the cut!
      After 6 weeks is over, you would just go back to your 2500 calorie maintenance and begin your building process again.
      You wouldnt need to spend the time reverse dieting as your body isnt at that starvation state where youre extremely low body fat or anything!

      @@l_eel_em Very interesting, in fact I’ve always consider this as a « panic cut » and maybe will not be beneficial!
      But the reason why Im asking this is; Is my maintenance still will be 2500? Didnt it go up because you said by time when you gain muscle it will increase? Or maybe for the moment the change isn’t significant ?

      @@Valiahd your maintenance will be a bit higher now that you’re heavier and would have put on more muscle, but it wouldnt be 3400 unless you’re going to stay at this weight!
      Once you get back down to a lower body fat, you’ll probably find that your old maintenance will be a bit higher now that you’re leaner and a bit bigger, but it might only be by around 100-200 cals

    Let's be honest, "dirty bulk" is just bro talk for poor nutrition. But, I'm sure it was started by some guy who was having trouble getting the calories eating clean without feeling like a bloatlord. Why would it be called a "dirty bulk" anyway if it wasn't assumed a bulk should be clean. It's just one of those things where it was probably well understood by a small group of people and then everyone heard about it without having all the information.

    If I bulk slowly less fat would go to my gut compared to a fast bulk right?

    • @l_eel_em
      @l_eel_em  Год назад +1

      Where you store fat is genetics. Basically the rate where your building muscle reaches a peak. And the body weight youre putting on is just enough to keep that rate of building muscle there. But if you dirty bulk, you’re putting on weight faster than you need to and it’s not going to speed up building muscle. So that extra weight is unnecessary which just makes weight loss harder later!
