Good stuff. Sounds like you’re making good progress and making adjustments when needed. Listening to the guys on here can really help too, as long as it’s the right guys lol.
Interesting what you said about the chocolate bars pre work out. I take it this is to ensure you’re using the fast absorbing glucose from them to avoid any glycogen depletion. I’m definitely going to try that out on my next bulk, especially considering you’re not seeing any significant fat gain. I went really high carb on my last bulk and didn’t like the results at all, lots of fat gain and almost no muscle so I’m going to try going higher fat, and carba peri workout like you.

Dre: The chocolate bars pre workout (on an ‘empty carb stomach’ serve a twofold purpose (I believe LOL, BBB told me to do it and I didn’t really question him/understand exactly what I was doing) i) increase insulin sensitivity ii) protect muscle glycogen stores.
I can tell ‘FO SHO’ that this protocol, helped me gain muscle AND burn fat! From now on, irrespective of my goals I intend to incorporate this little trick.
I’m in Rohampton mate, not far from you.
