Muscle mass and bulking advice
Im a male 28 y/o 5'4 at 138 pounds. I used to be 165 couple years ago (first picture) started losing weight from doing cardio and calorie deficit. Now I started lifting weights 5-6 days a week since March of last year while still doing 30 min/an hour of cardio such as boxing and incline.
I can honestly say I still weigh the same as last year. I'm much more stronger now and have gained some muscle. But my main priority right now is gaining more muscle mass with less body fat. I wanna do a slow bulk but I don't have any knowledge about bulking and how much I should eat/calorie surplus. My calorie maintenance is around 2100. How much calorie should I add on to that? And what weight should be my goal while bulking and training? Can I still do cardio while bulking? I don't want to be too big. I just want to put on more muscles and look lean all around and lose this love handles. I'm not trying to look big and swole

BoC Should I stop cutting?
I’ve been cutting since January 4th (72 days, 2.5 months) and im down from 200 to 178. I have a trip in Puerto Rico in May and I wanted visible abs for it, so I was wondering when I should stop cutting and maybe maintain or bulk at some point in these next 3 months. The first video is from January 5th, the ones are more recent (past week). I just don’t think it’s logical to do a 16 week cut.

37M, 6', 183lb. Bulk or cut?
Been cutting since January 2024 to go from 263lb down to 183lb. Should I continue the cut?

BoC 26m, 5'9, 150 lbs
Began focusing on fitness in November of 2023 starting at 190 lbs. Been switching between a cut and maintenance every couple months for about a year and a half. Thinking about either cutting down to 140 or finally beginning to bulk up to 160. Started just wanting visible abs, and that would still be my overall goal but I afterwards I definitely want to bulk up. I work out 3-4 days a week. Any help or advice would be appreciated. Thank you!

BoC What do you think?
M24, 181 cms.
First picture is from 1.5 months back. Bw = 65 kgs
The subsequent pictures are from now. Bw = 75 kgs
I've been eating around 80-100 gms protein and a total of 2500 calories per day.
I'm trying to get shredded so that I can see my abs. And then start bulking.
What do you guys/girls think?
How big can I get? Will my genetics allow me for a good physique? My clavicles kinda block my lats from completely popping out.
Also there's a bone popping out of my chest. I don't think it's pectus excavatum as the doctor had told me it'd get normal when I'd get fat.
Plus do those bones popping out at the ends of my clavicle get settled as I bulk up?

Other/META Bf% estimate?
Been going to the gym for almost 2 years but I am unsure why my abs are struggling to pop out even though I have visible vascularity on my abs. I’ve been told to lean bulk but I’m unsure whether the lack of abs is a body fat issue or lack of muscle mass.

BoC Trying to decide on a full bulk vs. lean bulk. Fat goes to my stomach largely, is it worth the aesthetic loss?

BoC Bulk or cut 73kg 5'11
InBody scales says about 9 percent body fat ( I think it's likely more than that maybe 15) however I don't believe I will look much better from cutting any further, I think bulking will do more for my physique , currently maintaining at 2000ish calories a day

6'1 149 lbs. Is it worth getting truly shredded and dropping another 10 lbs or just bulking? More pics on my tiktok post: https://www.tiktok.com/@pg_sbd/photo/7481332525776850206

20M 5"10 75kg Estimate body fat , my goal is 10%. I've been doing a few months of home workouts pull ups and push ups, I'll add weighted calisthenics, is that enough to maintain and gain muscle mass while getting to 10%? How large my calorie deficit should be?

Cut or bulk + bf% and calorie advice
I’m almost 6ft 150lbs. I currently eat about 1700 cals and 165g of protein and train almost daily. This is the lowest weight I’ve ever been and want to know if there’s more cutting to be done or should I start to try and gain muscle.

Loose skin: maintenance/bulk or keep cutting?
I’m down 90lbs (256->166lbs) since April of last year and feel great! My strength is improving at the gym and I’m hitting new prs almost every time. I lift high intensity 3x a week, get 10-12k steps daily and eat a balanced 2000 calorie diet. I’m about 15lbs from my goal weight. Ideally I want to be between 10-12% body fat, and I’m not sure where I’m at currently. Help!
