Shout out to Mike.reading his blog was a epiphany for me after years (on and off) in the gym. I'm one of the few in the gym now doing low reps heavyweights for half a year and pushing through plateaus on a cut, seeing real body recomposition, while the rest of the guys I used to look up to still chasing the pump with high reps.

I just started with my first ever bulk. I am aiming for slow bulk but after such a long time of not eating crap, I have indulged in some sweet or fast food here and there. no beers on the bulk though.

my question is: Some days I have a real drive and energy to lift heavier and to power through my workout in this bulk. some days I feel bloated (under the skin, not the muscle tissue), tired and lethargic on this bulk diet. is that due to too many simple sugars, occasional crap food (too little fiber for all those carbs?) or something else?
