I was specifically talking about Steve's example. He said he hit 205, then he was like whooops, time to back pedal and
diet because you can't hardly see the
abs. So basically I was wondering if in that situation if it's acceptable if he could have stopped at 200
pounds then dieted for a shorter period of time before building again. I didn't know if doing this vs. longer term building and
dieting if it would produce the same results.
Basically I'm asking all this because I really don't want to pack much
fat on at all since I just busted my ass all winter losing it all. I think I'd rather have smaller size gains before I got too much
fat back on but I don't know where exactly the magic number is, I don't know what the minimum amount of time or whatever could be and still actually have gains.
