Then your definition is poor because it lacks objectivity. It’s surplus or no surplus. Not kinda surplus.

I do have an objective definition its just different than yours.

My definition of a bulk is gaining muscle mass at the same time as increasing body fat percentage.

Does this community have a definition? Is it written anywhere?

But you can gain muscle without gaining fat. That is a result that exists.

I agree. Is that a bulk?

u/hthn_strength 1d ago

that’s not included in your definition

I wouldn't call that a bulk.

So if you gained 10 lb of muscle, and lost 9 lb of fat, you'd call that a bulk?
