time to bulk

[Varven]

Weights are looking consistent and strong.

Hows the rest coming along.. and what are your food portions like.. i.e. are you increasing amount of food every other week as well as your poor tummy adjusts to it or ?

Nice work on the squats and weight gain!

Not sure if you've mentioned it anywhere else on the forum - but do you compete? BB or powerlifting/olympic lifting? Or is the bulking just for aesthetic purposes? Health?
