Thanks Ian. No offense taken. The thing is, like I said earlier, I am an easy gainer. I gain weight VERY easily.
If I take in the right foods then its very easy to pack on the weight. For example, when I switched my diet for 1 week from whole grain to white carbs, I very easily gained fat around my gut.
Now that I switched my diet back to whole grain, I have gained over 2 lb in a week and not of fat. My scale kept the same BF% as in the beginning of the week.
On the contrary, I really don't think its water weight, although I can be wrong. My scale measures both BF% and Water Retention %. My water weight has gone from over 60% in the beginning to 57% this morning.
Then again, my scale can be wrong and I really am gaining some water weight (even though I don't see it).
On the other hand, I do not do cardio whatsoever when bulking. If I do cardio, I have to REALLY watch what I eat (no fats, moderate carb) in order to burn fat. My body doesn't respond well to fat.
I only do cardio when I'm cutting. If not, then its pointless for me. I appreciate your input though. Always good to hear what others have to say.
