Bulk season is a time for improvement when it comes to building muscle. Building does not mean putting on unnecessary weight, becoming insulin resistant or negatively impacting your physique. In order to gain muscle and get your metabolism in a healthy place, yes, there will be more food, yes the training may change, and yes, the scale may nudge up a bit. However, by building more quality lean muscle mass and eating optimally for your body you can drop body fat and improve how you look and feel through a proper fat loss phase. But we need to improve your internal health, and the muscle and shape you want, before throwing you into a fat loss phase. It's all part of making sure you can live life without being deprived and making sure your metabolism is in a healthy place. Lean body mass is what will help you gain muscle and strength. Being insulin sensitive, and building lean body mass is essential as you age and enables you to live a longer, healthier life.
