Slow bulking?

[Tagula_Sunrise]

Hi all - just looking for some ideas really.

What would you guys approach be in my sitation in order to add mass - would you just eat say 350-500 over maintenance and look to add a little mass each month so that the fat gains are limited or would you bulk with lots of calories and then cut later?

I have read an article on T-Nation recently about only eating a little over your calorie maintenance in order to limit fat gains but still gain muscle.

Just looking for you guys responses as obviously i dont want to get add a lot fat if i dont have to as cutting time is time when you cannot be building muscle.

Thanks.

your body can only synthesize new muscle tissue so fast. youd be very lucky to gain a pound every 2 weeks. eating more calories than necesary to "speed up" muscle gains isnt going to help you. if your strength is increasing, and your gaining weight steadily over the weeks, then your probably eating enough.
