I have a question about this episode How Strength Training & Cardio Promotes Younger Skin | Mind Pump 2379 and this Strength and Body Fat. I've completed a bulk at 3000 calories for nine weeks. I started at 232lbs, went to 238lbs in 5 weeks, and for the last 4 weeks, I've stayed at 238lbs. Should I start a cut seeing it seems like my body has adapted to the 3000 calories? I was planning to cut to 2500 calories for 6 weeks, then have a week of maintenance, then another 6-week cut. Is this a good approach?
