Nearly 4 months into a bulking cycle (started in mid-February). This is me with a bit more fat than usual (got some moobs and a little belly chub going on).

I was shocked to see my abs growing and showing since I don't do any direct ab work at all!

I've been taking actual progress pictures and I'll post them when I'm done cutting in August(?).

Here's what an added 1500 calories for 15 weeks has got me...
