"As soon as you stop seeing definition you need to cut". I can tell you're new to bodybuilding with a sentence like that and saying Greg Doucette is the best fitness influencer on the platform with the best advice lol. When you've been in the game for long enough you'll realize staying as lean as possible is a detriment to your progress if your goal is as much muscle as possible. Not to say permabulking and getting fat is the way, but trying to stay as lean as possible at 110lb is definitely not the way either. No hate to you at all, much respect for putting yourself out there, but I'd say maybe get a few more years of experience and research before you start giving advice. Saying 3-12% BF is the ideal healthy range for men is wild and dangerous.
@@dixonvfitness1921 How am I hiding? lol I'm not trying to be a fitness influencer homie. You say "prove me wrong" but I think everyone over 110lb at the same body fat already has.
@@dixonvfitness1921 If you think that natural bodybuilding is not about who can get the biggest but the leanest then you should look at silver era bodybuilders and you will see that when steroids were not a thing yet these guys looked good and were not nowadays bodybuilding lean, nowadays natural bodybuilders are expected to be very lean trying to be like the guys that are steroids.
@@dixonvfitness1921 Go look at Steve Reeves, Juan Ferrero, Leo Robert. I personally would place these guys higher than any actually naturals, with todays knowledge getting physique that they had is easier, 70 years of progress.
Greg Doucette has said it best. If you're not a competitive bodybuilder (how many natties are going to seriously compete in bodybuilding anyways?) the best practice is to cut down to a body fat percentage that you are comfortable with. And then eat in a slight calorie surplus from there to build muscle mass. Most mainstream advice is to tell people to be in a 500 calorie surplus or more recently, 200-300 calorie surplus. I ate in a 200-300 calorie surplus during my first bulk and the end result was that I gained a lot of fat to go along with my muscle. lmfao. You don't need to be in a 200-300 calorie surplus to gain muscle mass. Especially for guys our height, I'm 167cm tall (~5'6"), you're 5'4" (~163cm). Guys like us only need like a 100 calorie surplus or less to build muscle mass. I'm sure you must have suffered a lot to get down to 110 lbs. But now that you are there, you don't have to deprive yourself anymore. The deprivation is temporary. It's way worse to yo-yo between having to aggressively bulk and cut. Because you will constantly have to put yourselves into periods of deprivation after periods of gluttony.
Greg Doucette is probably the number one fitness influencer currently. I really can't think of another fitness personel that gives better advice other than maybe Scooby1961 or Sean Nalewanyj. Even they don't compare because they aren't as active in the fitness community anymore. I'd say the number one reason he resonates with people though is because he promotes the focus on maintaining leanness, which goes against what the industry has focused on for so long. (And it doesn't help that we now have a large fat acceptance culture emerging currently). Which is largely ideal advice, considering most individuals past the 1 year lifting period should not be gaining more than 15 pounds in their bulking cycles.

Where are your results though? Prove me wrong, sir, all I see is someone hiding behind an anime icon.
