[quote=joop;%2Fbloards%2Fgbs%2Ftopics%2Freal-talk-the-bloard-thread-with-a-strict-no-irony-policy%2Fposts%2F4769] i'm trying to bulk on a renaissance periodization program but it's hard as hell to do intermittent fasting AND eat a caloric surplus on only whole/non-refined foods. i slept 12 hours straight last night. woke up, walked into the living room and looked at the clock as my eyes came into focus and sure enough it said 12:00 (i went to sleep at abt 11:45 iirc). [/quote] What is this? I just bulk by eating whatever I want whenever and occasionally lifting weights and now I have a big belly that I slap periodically whilst sitting down.
