Go for it Ceffo!
I've sort of turned the corner back into bulking mode now given I started missing a few of my lifts. I hate not making strength gains so revisited my diet and am now definately back in calorie surplus.
I'm 168cm and want to get to a lean 90kg one day. I'm 80kg today but probably 25% BF.
Cheers,
Mike

90kg and lean at your height is a stretch. Chemical enhancements would be required. Getting to 15% at your weight, or a bit less would be a suitable goal!

exactly.
10kg in 12 weeks would mostly be fat. You can't really rush muscle growth without using sterons. At most I reckon aim for 0.5kg increases a week, it might be slower but over 12 weeks that's 6kg which would look pretty good at 12% bf.
Go to the butchers and buy 10kg of rump steak. Lay it out on a chopping board and see just how much it is. Thats a pretty big demand for someone whose been lifting for years and isnt on celltech.
I don't see what the issue with gaining at 10% is its not like your body is starving. Things are even easier with celltech because your body is artificially anabolic - you could gain at 6%.
The issue of being that weight is the weight you'll gain is likely so low it will be intangible even on a monthly basis. Compare this to fat bulking to 15% where you will see results in JUST 14 DAYS! (fat accumulates around the leg - 'look at my quad mass!')
Not to mention youve got a kis on the way. Cutting below 15% (where your body likes to sit) is a bitch and a half already, not to mention when you're not sleeping/eating right.

Hook me up with some Sterons please, I hear they are the new" You beaut" supp.

Yeah, you're right I guess, nice to have a stretch goal though...90kg and lean at your height is a stretch. Chemical enhancements would be required. Getting to 15% at your weight, or a bit less would be a suitable goal!
I'll go via 90kg as a bulk, then see what I look like when I cut to 10% BF, probably back to 80kg odd. I'm 80kg today so getting to 90kg is sort of my 2011 goal on a steady growth plan at maintenance +30%. Split about 260gm protein, 260gm carbs, 60gm fats for about 2,600 cals a day at 80kg.

I started bulking 3 weeks ago today. Already gone from about 86 to about 91. I'd say alot of that is water as iv'e started eating carbs before and after training (after low carbing) and back on the milk. Strength has been moving up nicely again since i started eating after been stale for 2-3 months. Planning on continuing with it until the end of winter, although if i get too fat, will re-assess.
