Episode 3487: Eric Bach explains why the classic dirty bulk leaves lifters with more fat than muscle. In part one, he covers how excess calories spill over into fat storage, why new fat cells never really go away, and how insulin sensitivity shapes the way your body handles nutrition. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://bachperformance.com/dirty-bulk-five-reasons-clean-bulk/ Quotes to ponder: "Following a dirty bulk will leave you fat and frustrated, not jacked and confident." "The big kicker here is you can't eliminate cells." "When you're sensitive to insulin, your body effectively burns stored body fat and breaks your food into energy."
