Also, Think the carb cycling while bulking is suited to people that have cut down BF levels and don't want to put a lot of fat back on. But if youre 16-17% now your body will easily burn that fat, and also any extra you gain while bulking without too much difficulty.
So Maybe a lean bulk than a good cut would be a good base then to carb cycle. And it would also give you time to read up on cycling.
