Introduction

Starting lifting six months ago but stopped for like a month due to a loss in the family. Started going to the gym again but brother would flake a lot. Last month developed a regular routine and have been going about every other day since.

What's a Good Weight for Bulking?

Reddit user throwaway-fitness1 asked what weight they should bulk up to. They currently weigh 145lbs and want to reach their goal weight of 160lbs. There's no good end weight for bulking. It's best to bulk until you've achieved the strength/muscle gains you desire. Set realistic goals and aim for progress, not perfection.

Current Body Fat Percentage

It's hard to determine throwaway-fitness1's body fat percentage without proper testing equipment. They estimate it at around 20%. To monitor their progress, it's important for them to keep track of their weight and strength gains, as well as their physical appearance.

Plan Smart and Educate Yourself

NeverTheSameMan, a Reddit user, advised throwaway-fitness1 to bulk smart and not think of bulking as an excuse to eat whatever they want. Throwaway-fitness1 was also encouraged to educate themselves about lifting and fitness to achieve their goals. Self-education can come from reputable sources, such as books, articles, and YouTube videos.

Conclusion

Throwaway-fitness1's weight journey is a reminder that there's no one-size-fits-all approach to fitness. Progress is a product of patience, hard work, and self-education. It's important to set realistic goals, plan smart, and listen to your body. Remember that everyone's journey is unique, and what works for one person may not work for you. Experiment and try things out for yourself!
