All the more reason to not let your bf climb above 12-15% even while bulking. If you're on a high dosage of aromatizing steroids you cant avoid the water retention and bloating, but there's a difference between that and fat. A good example is your abs. If you can see your abs but your belly sticks out beyond your feet, you're bloated. If you cant see your abs AND your belly sticks out, you're bloated AND fat, definitely not a good combo. I'm not hating at all. I'm currently 5'10" 285 and am starting a 2 phase 16 week cycle. I'm right there with all you bro's.
