BEST Workouts For Bulking and Cutting | Mind Pump 2210

[@Oven-Nachos]

One day I’ll be able to look down and see my feet instead of my gut and it will be because of you all. Thank you guys for putting out honest information.

[@Isaiah-e3x]

❤❤it's the baby for me. I am so happy you all did this episode. I will be going on a cut in March to prepare for my wedding. Currently reverse dieting at the moment to gain muscle before the cut (per mindpump advise) mom of 4 on my sons account. One of the best episodes for sure ❤

[@lizgerardo3029]

I think I heard this episode over 5 times! I just got back to working out a little over a month ago after almost 3 years of fighting depression, anxiety, menopause and this advice was much much needed to also kind of tune out all the bad, unwanted advice out here 😂

[@anthonyagins7872]

Sal’s son stole the show! ❤ Also thank you guys for this! I was getting confused on how to lift weights while cutting and then bam 💥 this episode pops up! Thank you guys this really means a lot to me 😌

[@assafmatia9823]

FINALLY!!! the best answer and deep dive into this issue! the novelty concept, and high/low reps comparing regarding the cut/bulk phase, so true! i heard a few weeks ago on one of your podcast that you preffer the low rep during a cut and to present a novelty, so i did that 2-3 weeks ago in the middle of my cut and the change is so amazing! thank you for all this info and knowledge you present to us, and in such a great way. highly appreciate!!

[@jiruchan]

Lower reps when cutting is an absolute mindblown moment for me. I see the logic and I love Adam's explanation, but a part of me is kind of rebelling at the idea. Just goes to show how much the whole high rep/lightweight = cutting idea has wormed its way so deep into our psyche. I've just begun phase 1 of MAPS Aesthetic after finishing MAPS Strong (which I really adored btw) and I was thinking about going on a mini-cut since Strong gave me the confidence to bulk for the first time in my fitness journey. Your video couldn't have come at a beter time since I was already planning to do the cut during phase 3; now I know it's the best time to do it this week! What amazing timing, guys. Thanks so much

[@JohanFitFoodie]

Definitely also going for lower reps but keeping intensity for the next cutting phase, but first a bulk. 2024 let's go! 🔥💪

[@lasvegas.realestate]

Wow, once again I learned something new. I am an experienced lifter… I would consider myself advanced intermediate. I know waaaaay more than anyone else i know about lifting and manipulating your body. I have been doing my heavier 5x5 training in a bulk and my higher reps in a cut. Mind Pump = Mind Blown. I can’t wait to try this with your guidance. Thank you for all the knowledge.

[@megangrogg9164]

Thanks to you guys for switching my mindset away from that number on the scale! I love the message you give to women especially to steer away from cardio for fat loss.

[@weisscoaching]

That's huge and congratulations 👏🎉

[@scottbennett3765]

Best way to end our weekend is new Mind Pump! Let’s go!!! 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻

[@expensivepang9411]

The first thing that want to say thank you is KZbin's AI. It randomly suggested your show on my feed, and since then, I have been endlessly watching it. With my background in healthcare field, I can understand basic knowledge about health and fitness. However, when it comes to exercise, I have no idea. I studied on this topic by reading and following fitness influencers. Yet, I came to realize that there are numerous misleading exercise concepts circulating on socia media nowsdaya. Your show elevates my mind to a next level in both diet and workout concepts. Thanks for all your contributions and how all of you present sincere knowledge and experiences to your audience.

[@EdwinViana]

Loving this content. Everything you’re speaking about recently is what I’m trying to achieve, which is to transform my body at middle age, which is not simple. Working on losing about 80 lbs and have lost about 25 so far.

[@AkashRamlagan]

You're changing lives!! Massive respect for your effort to share this information. Keep going strong you guys!💪🏽👊🏽 Can't wait to try out one of your training programs! 🙏🏽

[@travismaile7174]

Another good episode to add to my watch later list I've been struggling with the bulking for awhile now

[@WhiskeyRiver0]

I'm trying to bulk all winter with anabolic. Still debating on which I should cut with in the summer. Thank you all so much for all you do!

[@brandonyoung4910]

Cut the volume in half and use the same program!

[@ahmadhamada7511]

Maps performance

[@WhiskeyRiver0]

@brandonyoung4910 sounds good. I will give that a go.Have you used maps aesthetic?

[@Sanaggie12292002]

6:13

[@scaaags]

@@WhiskeyRiver0 i did the same anabolic during the cold months and did aesthetic this summer. definitely recommend aesthetic although phase 3 has a lot of volume for a cut and I changed it up a bit to suit me better

[@indigobuttrfly]

This one made it to my “saves”! I know I’m gonna watch it again!! Y’all give so much great info…thank you!

[@thebane5822]

Recovering Bulker of 9 years, following your guys overall advice has done more for me in 2 months than what I've tried for the past 3 years. Wish I found you guys sooner

[@nicolehalverson5225]

This is my year coming up! So excited! Thank you so much for all you guys do!

[@brendawatson7666]

Thanks MP ! This is so relevant for me.. I just met with a personal trainer. He reviewed my goals and diet. I was keto for 7 years and lost all my weight but lots of muscle too (850- 1100 calories and 35-50 grams of protein day.. he immediately increased my calories and protein .. so scared I’m going to gain a huge amount of weight back. I’ve packed away my scale and trying to trust the process.. BTW the trainer is a huge fan of Mind Pump!

[@rudyspective1870]

8:37 BABYYY!!! Hahahaa, I love it! Great job Sal!

[@miacoetzee7121]

You guys rock!👍 My wife and I love your KZbin videos! We watch them every morning while doing our cardio on the spin bike. We have gained so much motivation and discipline in the last 7 months from you guys while doing a transformation training programme. I lost 17 kg during that time and now I want to build muscle, gain more strength and also loose a bit more weight 💪. Thank you for sharing exercise information in a fun and very informative manner. Keep up the good work! ❤

[@coliveroc]

From this episode I learned that for Bulking and Cutting, you have to prioritize protein intake to gain or maintain muscle. Thank you for this knowledge

[@marabrito85]

Yesss!! all I needed! Ive been watching all videos in your channel with this subject of bulking. I love you guys, I love the show. Thank you for this service!!

[@Enrikay100]

Hi guys, I'm a long time listener. I'm currently up to episode 300 of your podcast on Spotify. Right after you released you first super bundle. I am going to start investing in some of your programs after Christmas. I've gotten great results just listeng to you three daily. Can't wait to try one.

[@fortunatelebelo259]

Wow how cute is the baby, is that Aurelius 😍 cuteness overload, thank you for this episodes it clears a lot of myth and it was much needled. Thank you guys.

[@jamesweber8537]

After my first successful cut, I recently finished a bulk , and I tried a refeeding period but not being all that experienced I gained a bit of fat back. (Not too much, but enough) I actually started a cut as of today. I'm so glad I found MindPump, I'll definitely be using this info going forward. Thanks guys, love the show.

[@waldomus]

As someone cutting right now I found this enlightening. Completely changes the my concept of low rep vs high volume while on a cut.Thank you so much!

[@doublock]

i found out this concept of volume landmarks from Dr. mike. I thinkyou guys explained this really good, and made me understand the MEV MRV margin being narrower in a cut, and a way bigger MEV MRV margin in a surplus

[@kuziluvit]

That was the best commercial cut. Lol.

[@Bowfisher6363]

Love the kid blooper! That would be my kids for sure. I feel this one deep to my core. It’s always been a struggle for me to keep muscle when I try to cut down body fat. Lots of valuable advice here. Thank yall so much for what you do!

[@GoonSquad_151]

Going into my second round of MAPS Aesthetic to start the year! Going to follow up with my first round of MAPS Anabolic. Love this channel. It’s really got me dialed in both physically and mentally (educated approach). I’m in the best shape of my life! Thanks for what you do 💪😎

[@kaic97]

Great way to look at a bulking phase when gaining the extra pounds messes with your head. Mahalo for your wonderful content!! Love listening to MP while I’m starting my day and would love to win the free program 🎉🌴

[@joshhoobler5769]

Best episode in a long time. I found the point about using a bulk to help with recovery for high volume phases super convincing

[@aarondt77]

Great show guys, your my first choice for fitness advice

[@Burkhimself]

Congrats on the subscriber number….seems like not long ago it was at 275K…..I just noticed it was at 405K….well deserved 💪🏼

[@SteveK-ys2nl]

This episode is just what I needed, how do you guys always know!? 😁 Seriously, thanks!

[@madhukrishnann]

Really enjoyed this one. It was nuanced and true to the soul of the show. Cut the noise and bulked my mind pump.

[@donmerrigan2362]

Perfect timing. I've been doing my reading on this topic for a while now trying to start my first bulk and then cut.

[@VictorMartinez-cl3zc]

Loving watching and finding the best information that fits to me !

[@jtromans8307]

Deconstructing from 9 years of CrossFit. I really appreciate all the content. Very useful information.

[@jacquishugar6761]

omgosh Sal, your kid is so cute.. awww 😃 like father like son!! 🥰

[@kidusyohannes5555]

Every episode I learn something new thanks guys

[@Peoniesplease555]

Just finished my first three week bulk/10 day cut, and starting up again to bulk through the holiday season. My intent is to use the discipline of 3x/wk lifting and 1x/wk Pilates plus the extra calories from holiday events to build muscle. 💪🏻

[@carolannN9712]

I wish I'd seen this before kicking my ass in a long cut and getting sick and burned out. Makes so much sense. Thank you!

[@EPMcloughlin]

The sneaky pick ….. gold ….very funny The whole cut & bulk just freaks me out ,,,, I’m probably not there yet , I’m still trying to get my program fully dialled in , I’m currently trying to focus on doing different excercises that focus on minor body parts , love the show. Dudes rock on 🇮🇪 Ireland mind pumper

[@stacievalley8295]

I love how fast you guys are growing! Spread the word so EVERYONE can do this! 💪💯 It’s time to get healthy 🥰

[@janessah8684]

Great episode! I'm in a cut and just starting Anabolic... great to know why I'm going heavy for less reps. Thank you!

[@MitanisTG]

I feel like I’ve learned years of information through your videos ! 🙌🏼

[@RBW8774]

You know when Facebook can hear you and puts up ads? I swear you guys put the episode I need everyday 😂❤

[@chriscichlids5681]

I’m glad I found this youtube channel I’ve learned so much I’ve been working out so wrong and with the little I have learned with u guys I’ve seen some difference… Which one of your programs u recommend for a man trying to lose fat

[@Eric-pm7fi]

Thanks for the informative video! You guys are helping me navigate through my fitness journey. Appreciate everything that you do.

[@janfauzt]

MAN THAT WAS THE CUTEST GIVEAWAY ANNOUNCEMENT EVER! 😍

[@benw1046]

This is great, been cutting on phase 3 of aesthetic and felt I had to lower some of the volume cause I was feeling cooked afterwards. I'll definitely try the low reps on a cut next time 👍

[@Natalie.Tate.]

Thanks for another great episode. Also Sal your son is adorable. Disordered eating caused my body to lose all natural hunger and fullness indicators. I recently gained about 20 pounds of much needed weight. I found mind pump after that process. I’m afraid of tracking calories and using a scale because I don’t want to backslide. I’m trying to focus on gaining strength but I’m struggling. I’m feeling stronger but not sure how to keep trusting the process 😔

[@RoyalAzul]

This is such gold! Thank you for yet another mind pump! I feel wiser after this episode!

[@samanthanorman4298]

Amazing content guys, really need this maps program I feel like I don’t know what I’m doing but I’m trying to lift and get strong 💪 and loose body fat and balance thyroid/hormone issues

[@kingshuksonowal6957]

Excited to work with your help...

[@carriesitz4304]

As always this is super helpful! Leaving for the beach soon. This is needed! Would love to lean out!

[@ChrAshley]

Happy Monday🎉 Thank you for always providing solid content ❤

[@ShelleyRoutley]

Super helpful being new to body building thank you

[@sassyshae5812]

Found your channels a month ago and I'm listening nonstop these days! Such great info!! I'd really love a chance at one of your programs to see the impact it could have ❤

[@k.s.2392]

Wahooooo! I enjoy these answer question episodes like a masterclass!

[@blainewehba4935]

Semi new to the channel and just getting back to it. Thanks for all the content

[@AuthorsAdele]

As usual you guys deliver quality content and it helps because I’m just starting to workout after a 5 year layoff and I’m from the over training era. I do have a question. What’s the best way to track burned calories? It’s really difficult for me to track daily I have a service job so some days are more active than others…

[@DonnaAbernethy]

Super helpful. Thanks! I’ve been trying to get my husband to do more than pull-ups, push ups and sit-ups. Unfortunately I’m not the best motivator or encourager.

[@savedzurnovska9634]

I’ve learned so much,thank you guys

[@vte4chg]

Sal, I’m 73. Have just started to work out doing full body workouts. This is after many years of doing nothing but cardio. I’m doing machines and dumbbells. I’m afraid of doing the major movements- bench, squats, press, deadlifts- for fear that my joints can’t handle the stress. I haven’t done the major exercises since my 30’s. I’ve lost a lot of muscle and my goal is to put some muscle back on and drop some weight. Can you give me some advice on if I should stick with machines and dumbbells or do the major movements. Thank you.

[@hocuspocus6681]

Loved the bit with your kid :) would also love to try Anabolic, been doing calisthenics for a while and wouldn't mind just getting bigger!

[@cbgbstew4072]

So glad I read the comments! I wasn’t watching, only listening, and missed Sal’s adorable son with his finger up his nose the first time around 😂

[@sortiexit]

Sal, your kid has a jacked future. I actually wonder how he's gonna grow up with all the knowledge you guys have.

[@danno8451]

Metric pumping interaction, love the show, just trying to help the algorithm

[@MojoMan007]

I've noticed more both cut and bulk since I clicked the play button, and I'm only halfway through it!

[@romberthehobbyist]

Thanks for another great show!

[@margeauxaeschliman7582]

Love this! Started a bulk last week, but unclear what my macros should be. Where can I find your resources on macros?

[@jacksonnolen4508]

Currently cutting to set up for the first bulk I’ve done in years. I’ve mainly done CrossFit and endurance training over the last 3-45 years, but now I miss bodybuilding too much. Currently running programs I’ve written myself with hopes of maybe getting on stage one day. Trying to still maintain conditioning also as I’m a police officer.

[@zacharyhinds0311]

I don’t know if you guys have done a video on how your mental state affects your training but if you haven’t you should. I’m a marine vet that struggles with depression and ptsd and it messes with my training all the time

[@edwarddaou9941]

Mind-pump best content on fitness 🤙🏽

[@Nothanksokbye]

This is great information 👏 I'm getting ready to start maps anabolic and I'm going to go into with a 300 calorie cut ✂️ 💪

[@MrCota]

Loving all the advice. After tracking my nutrition 3,200 calories is my current maintenance. I want to cut but not sure if I should bulk first?

[@rossfarmer2472]

Great show as usual, it’s bulking season!! Let’s go.

[@espresso.scream]

I needed to see this. I keep quitting my cut because I can't get over losing pounds on the bar. Psychology has trumped all for me. So taking your advice and doing higher reps, lower weight. It also qualifies as novel for me. But what kind of change? 5 reps before. 10 now? Thanks

[@K4R3N]

27:55 that's exactly the mistake I made during my first cut. Dropped calories but still chased PRs. Ended up with an injury and on the sofa for a week.

[@Subalpha79]

Just found you guys going back over lots of your streams. It all makes sense to me and I have really changed the way I think. I would love to win your maps anabolic 🎉😊

[@rudygomez6216]

What a great show LFG!

[@sariebou]

Great episode wow thanks

[@stephanielovesshane]

I’d love the maps anabolic program! I’m a newbie to strength training 6 weeks in. Would love a good proven plan to gain muscle and lose some fat.

[@natashas4395]

I'm an intermediate female lifter currently on a bulk and would like to jump on a MAPS program. I do have some muscle imbalances (left shoulder weaker than right). Would MAPS Symmetry be good, and then for a cut, MAPS Anabolic ? You guys are awesome - thank you!

[@claudiavillela3009]

I want to lose fat without losing muscle. What’s the best strategy? What kind of exercises and food are the best? What should I not eat? Thank you! You’re awesome!

[@marcrose3403]

Just lift weights n eat natural food like Vegetables . Don’t eat processed food, food with high sugar n drinks with sugar, n high in sodium

[@newbeginnings1543]

I would like to try one of your programs. I have been a yoyo dieter for 28 years!!!

[@ho2673]

Hey love mind pump info thanks

[@JosephStahl-r1k]

I am currently training for my first marathon. I strength training 3 days and running 3 days. I don't want to lose some of gains. I'm 40 yrs old 6ft 200lbs. What advice do you have?

[@ara912]

I am had a hard time concentrating in this AMAZING subject after the “bugger picker” 😂😂😂 half time Super Bowl shows got nothing on this half time 😂😂😂❤❤❤❤ bello ese bebé ❤

[@ItsmeStaygoldkid]

Just in time! I really need to get on your programs! 💪

[@buwanekakottage7917]

you guys are true legends ❤

[@silverpyramid9251]

How long to you give one of these new stimulous stages? 3 monrha 3x a week? 6 months? thank you

[@jonathancordero6903]

Thx for all the info

[@outpost31737]

I would love MAPS Anabolic!

[@RoaneRanger]

I’m currently going through a 12 week cut. So far, I’ve been able to take off 3” from my waist line, but only lost an average of 4.6lbs. In my mind, I’ve been able to hold onto my muscle, and possibly gained a slight bit, while cutting body fat. Current goal is 243.6lbs to 220 over 12 weeks with an average loss of 2lbs per week. I have been doing what you classified as the “novelty effect.” Went from bulking at 1-3RMs for 21 weeks, to 12 weeks of hypertrophy training. Obviously this will only go on for so long. I took away 500 cals from food and cycled my carbs from low to moderate on my heavy training days (typically legs to allow for recovery). However, at week 4 this has slowed down. My thought is to add 250-500 cals of cardio in on top of my 500 cals of my caloric intake. Good idea or bad?

[@JoseDiaz-dj2hg]

I’ve been combining 2 compound wkouts and a kettle bell circuit. Been feeling great, healthy, agile and really muscular…..but long term, am I setting myself up for failure?

[@babarbucha4225]

Shorter rest periods, high rep workouts with short rest periods is still the default unfortunately. Losing strength and muscle is often accelerated way more than it would be otherwise. Always great information guys!!
