Is BULKING necessary for muscle growth?

Описание к видео Is BULKING necessary for muscle growth?

Do you have to bulk to build muscle? Now this is a question I get all the time, seeing as though I am now 200 pounds at 46% body fat, but the answer here is no, and here’s why. At the end of the day, building muscle really just boils down to 3 things, training, recovery, and diet. Your training needs to be intense enough, or in other words close to enough to failure, where your muscles need to produce more force in order to keep moving the weight. This is what elicits mechanical tension. Then in order to translate that mechanical tension into actual muscle, you now need protein in order to support muscle protein synthesis. This is what actually hypertrophies the muscle, making your muscle cells larger. And then to continue building muscle from there, you need to repeat this process, over and over and over again, which requires consistent rest and recovery, to fuel and sustain your performance in the gym. In other words, if you eat right, with enough protein and calories, and you recover sufficiently, with lots of sleep, little stress, and proper training volume, you will build muscle assuming, you are training to failure and progressively overloading. So if that’s all you need, why even bulk in the first place? Very simple. Bulking significantly helps meet these requirements from your protein, your diet, your sleep, your calories, your carbs, your energy, and all other factors of your recovery, which significantly improves your performance in the gym, making your training much more productive, and much more hypertrophic. So, although bulking is not necessary, it will definitely speed up the muscle building process by creating a much more anabolic environment. But as with all things in life, if you don’t want to bulk, simply don’t bulk. Sure, you won’t build muscle as quickly, but it’s not like you can’t build muscle, right? As long as you’re still training hard, and making progress, even if it’s, you know super slow, you’re still making progress. And if you love being lean, and you don’t care about getting as big as possible, you know you’re not tryna be a bodybuilder, you just want a healthy, athletic physique, then yea bulking probably isn’t super necessary.
