28M, 176 cm, 73.5 kg, skinny fat, I used to walk and cycles a lot 12 k steps a day (before i started weight training), never went into the gym (beside 2 months back in 2022), my weight was 76 kg in April 4, i started hitting the gym and went on a 500 kcal deficit for 7 weeks until i got to 73-72.6 kg as I was eating around 1950 kcal back then. May 29, I started eating at 2350-2400 kcal, my macros are: protein is 140 g a day, fats 70g rest is carbs with some minor fluctuations here and there. First month i was fucking around when it comes to train, then i discovered Alpha destiny novice program 3 times a week and hopped on it about a month and half now. As you can see my upper body is lagging behind, I am making progress each session. My question is this, should i keep milking the maintenance or hop on a lean bulk for optimal muscle gains?
