Dirty Bulking- What's your take?

Just feel I've been lazy for 3 months in gym terms. Would like to add some stamina. You think I'd be better off just with the weights and diet/ calorie cut?

A couple of 30 min sessions is fine.
I personally prefer complexes with barbells or HIIT.
 
There is no such thing as a dirty bulk. The only thing that changes in a bulk is how many calories over maintenance you are eating. You can do it with either clean or dirty type foods.
 
Ice cream every night, keep eating it even when after every mouthful you want to throw up. Will be making sure I add more protein powder next time though...

I woudn't do it if your not an ectomorph though..

Why do you take everything so literal?
Everyone know "Dirty Bulk" is a term used to eat almost everything in sight and not count calories or worry about macro ratio's.

So you'd be incorrect in saying there is no such thing?

There's a lot of vitamins and minerals in those food groups. You legend.


I strongly dislike the term bulking, it implies the individual is actively adding body weight, including body fat which is mostly useless. Bodybuilders from decades ago developed what we know as bulking. Only the smart have moved on, look how far away pro (or highly successful) bodybuilders go over there competition weight/body fat.

Do yourself a favor, don't live over 15% bf.

I am sorry that you are so immature that you need to make personal attacks to make yourself feel (and look) good.

What benifit is there to being over approximately 15% bf? I was under the assumption that it is the muscles and ligaments that do the work, not fat. I have recently learned that the AIS recommends strength athletes (men) reside between 9-17% body fat.
