A huge variation in expectation via the kitchen. Total cals and how clean and carb use etc.. give you a sample here if I were in your shoes with your goals and remember, we are actually doing two different things here in trying to bring some solid muscle but clean then sort of solidify in the final 4 weeks. So go over to jaycutler.com for an example, on the homepage click blueprints bottom right corner and start clicking on days around june. That's the sort of diet I'm referring to in the first 10 weeks then we go to a very different set up in the final 4. Final 4 I may say for myself that I'm getting 100 carbs ed. On a 6 meal plan and those carbs are before meal 3 then its lean meat and veggies the rest of the day. Then 3 weeks out I'm 100 carbs before meal 2, or by meal 2, then lean meat and veggies the rest of the day. Final 2 weeks I'm 50 carbs breakfast only, lean meat and veggies remaining 2 meals. If you kept the bf in check in the first 10 and had some nice pounds come on you can solidify those gains in the final 4 and even add a few more real lean lbs if keeping the protein via meat high in cals. I'm still working to get that bf down some more in the initial 10 weeks even if it means playing with carbs a bit there. I really think you come out of this done right with 10 solid lbs of muscle and really need to focus recomp in the final 5 weeks. The recomp will look like 10 lbs by itself so easy to look like you put on much more size than you did. I love to hardcore focus traps and delts in a recomp given those are two of the easiest places to get bigger in look and actually be wider. Adding an inch each side on delts with heavy training in side laterals and focusing whole delt even rear by where you would do pulls with the tri rope back to your forehead. Fill out the delts and pop the traps during the recomp and a 10 lb net gain here looks like 20 real easy. Just for the hell of it pull up "get big now" in the general via search bar top right and get a bettr idea of what I mean. Recomp is really where you focus with slow additions when you hit your size. I think you run this one, keep the bf in check via carb work through the off time then come back to a 16 week EQ run and throw on some more solid gains on top of these.

Alright bud this is a process conversation so if you don't like the idea's you get here we'll work through them and find other options. So I think for me if in your shoes what would I do? I think you have put on some nice size whether I'm in love with how oyou did it or not. I think I'm very impressed given how you've gone balls out that your bf is that low so for me right here and now I ask, where's the fire. Its a slow down now and given you have some pretty good size going I think about adding slower solid gains and solidify what I already have. You have an incredible base her, really hard to say base given you have p assed that sometime back. So you have a great place to start looking like a builder now. Good size, some solid gains, bf in a place we can really work with it so I propose you think a little diffently here. In fact I'm thinking a lean bulker in which you fight for the pounds rather than have them come on a brisket at a time but you know every pound on was solid meat and in the process you take on a little recomp and also solidify further what it is you have. So my point is, cycle where the compounds may say I'm bulking but the diet says I'm Adding lean muscle only this round and even if you come out with less total weight ain at the scale maybe the net gain in recomp plus gross is 15-20 lbs. I think at your size you quit thinking scale in other words and start thinking mirror. I have to change my phone battery out here and I'll be back to drop the cycle and at least we all have a conversation start place for ou.

My head hurts..
