@grace_chaser I'm definitely familiar with Renaissance Periodization and have been watching their videos recently. You say I missed the things that will lead to big changes. Do you mean the Renaissance Periodization and 3DMJ material? Just want to make sure I haven't missed anything. Thanks a lot.

OP here again. Thank you all so much for the unreal number of responses. This has very quickly turned into the most popular question I have ever asked on Reddit and I am honestly really grateful for all the responses. Just wanted to summarize everything I've picked up from all of your...

@johonchezi Well, I wasn't doing cardio during my bulk. It was the number of calories I had to eat to gain 2lbs a month for some reason. Wasn't doing any other physical activity outside the gym.

@fluffles 😆 Just some random shorts I bought from Walmart. Been looking for some better ones recently.

@johnlxyz Oh, I included a table in the question with my progression on my main barbell lifts. If you're on mobile, it may be showing as "View Table". I've also updated the diet with the protein amount next to each item and their totals, if you want to look at it too.

@greyowl Alright, I'll make a note. I thought all protein sources were similar that's why I focused mostly on targeting just my daily protein requirements. As for the protein numbers I listed, they're actually from MyFitnessPal.

@mgh I thought they were good questions too. Definitely got me thinking a bit.

@melita8 Sorry for the late response. Thanks for the reply. The workout was actually 5 days a week. ULPPL. I'll definitely add the weighted ab workouts. Think I'll overhaul the entire workout in general. My progressive overload method was anytime I hit a target rep range on my first set, I...

@giacmosuaviet I eat vegetables, I usually just don't log them since the calories are usually on the low side, that's why they're not listed on the diet I posted. I also take a multivitamin everyday.

@juanmz28 Sorry for the late reply. I usually leave at least 1-2 reps in the tank on both barbell and accessory lifts.

@notloveisnotjesus 😆 Sorry. I missed that when I was editing to add the protein numbers. Yeah, like the other guy said, it's the weight of the bananas.

@stratton609 Well, I take a multivitamin and some Vitamin D daily. Not sure if that is enough to make up for it. I'll definitely overhaul the diet either way though, just to be on the safe side.

OP here. I've updated the diet with the total protein amounts. Thank for all the responses so far. I'll respond to everyone in about an hour.

TLDR I'm 5'6", 135lbs and I ended up looking the same in at the end of my cut on December 2023 as I did at the beginning of my bulk in January 2023. January 2023 - August 2023 - December 2023 Bulking Diet and Workout I used Entire Progress since 2020 (if curious) Lift Start of Bulk...
