🍗 Food Quality Still Matters During a Bulk

Smart Surplus 🆚 Dirty Bulk
Hypertrophy is built on repeatable high-quality training, and your nutrition either supports that process or adds friction to it.
1️⃣ Control the rate of gain (so most of it is muscle).
2️⃣ Use a “small surplus” and adjust with data.
3️⃣ Prioritize performance calories, not random calories.
4️⃣ Hit protein and “quality targets” before extra treats.
