Switch from Cutting to Bulking Diets

Look going to be frank with you, you have to pretty much decide your goals. If you wanna be a guy who packs on 20-50pounds of dry muscle in 1 year then you have to eat in a 1k surplus. Cause on your off days is when u grow. Alot of people really misjudge the number in which you have to eat for optimal growth. Sit down and decide what goals you are aiming for, and go from there. If I had a choice of being chubby for 2 years, but then 4-5 months shedding the excess and revealing greatness, I would choose chubby. Goodluck

Thats is ur opinion but my opinion is quite the oposite

And most guys would agree with me that u need to gain weight slowly 1 lb per month max if naturall to make good clean gains

And if u tyink u can gain 50 LBS of 'dry muscle' in one year i would love to see you do it

It may be possible for an underweight noob but apart from that it is unlikley

If you are verry yound 15-16 i would say hammer the food big time and get as big as you can for 4-5 years ( eat clean tho )

This is pretty bad advice IMO. Nobody but genetic freaks and the occasional noob are going to naturally put on 20lbs of 'real' muscle in a year, forget about 50. As for 1k surplus, do you think that's a magical number that works for everybody?

A person can achieve slow and steady gains while maintaining or slowly reducing bodyfat... that's what a body recomp is all about.

^ ^ ^ this.

Sergeant, don't worry about the 1.5 inches. Unless you're eating like a madman (and based on your diet, you're not), there is no way you've gained fat like that. For the most part, it's water retention and your stomach holding on to the extra food it's a system shock since you've been in a deficit for so long. Are you feeling very uncomfortable/gassy/bloated?
