 Here's the difference between bulking and cutting, and it's important to understand that this is really the difference about the food intake. Bulking in order to gain as much lean body mass as possible, you want to be in a calorie surplus. You have to have additional calories that your body can use to turn into new muscle tissue cutting. You have to be in what's called a calorie deficit. You have to eat less calories in your burn because your body tries to make up the difference by burning calories off itself by burning its body fat. Really the big difference between the two is that one is a bulk with calories surplus. The other, the cut is in a deficit. Other than that, there's no difference. Then people say, well, okay, well, then do the workouts matter at all? Yes, they do, but we have to look at the most important factor when we're looking at what's going to build the most muscle and what's going to preserve the most muscle. It looks almost identical, and I'm glad you specified the difference between the two. It is all nutritionally is what you got to consider the most when approaching it. The training itself, again, is going to look pretty similar when it comes to, because you're trying to build muscle, it's the same process.
