Introduction

TheBulkingWrestler, a 16-year-old male, standing at 5 feet and 8 inches, weighed 142 pounds and decided to go on a bulking journey. He started posting his progress on Reddit to document his transformation, which gained quite a few upvotes and interactions.

Why did he choose to bulk?

When asked about his reasons, TheBulkingWrestler said he wanted to build muscles and gain mass, so he would look better and be more competitive as a wrestler. He also revealed that he had been lifting weights for roughly six months before deciding to bulk.

What was his bulking plan?

TheBulkingWrestler's plan was simple. He ate more calories than his body burned and followed a weightlifting program consisting of both compound and isolation exercises. He shared his macros and progress as he noticed his weight gain and his workouts became progressively harder.

What were his results?

After a few months, he weighed in at 152 pounds and had gained 10 pounds of muscle mass, posting several photos on his Reddit thread. He was enthusiastic about his new muscles and felt more confident in his abilities as a wrestler. TheBulkingWrestler's story serves as an inspiration for other teenagers who want to bulk up.

Takeaway message

Although bulking requires a lot of dedication, hard work, and discipline, it can lead to significant changes in body composition. If you are looking to build mass and gain muscle, you need to eat more calories than your body burns, lift weights regularly, and track your progress. Always remember to consult with a professional before starting a new diet or exercise regime.
