Ask a guy that has been lifting naturally for 17 years straight anything
Turned 34 not to long ago. When i was 13-17 i lifted / exercised on and off. From 17-34 i lifted straight naturally. Never quit like most bros who take a year off here and there.
Right now i m about 245lbs, 6'0 max lifts Bench press 355, SOHP 245, Deadlift 505, Squat 505 (breaking parallel)
100% natural, no drugs ever.

Do you still do typical bulk/cutting cycles or just maintain?

-Some people say good things come to those who wait, truth is, good things come to those who work..... who work later.....who work harder...... who are willing to go further than anyone else to get them. If you're waiting for good things to come to you, you'll be waiting for a pretty long time.

If summer is coming around, usually up cardio and eat a bit less. With covid this summer i was doing alot of backyard quarantine barbell work and broke several all times PRs, trade off is by far not the leanest.

Joking aside, why did you choose to stay natural?

Was always against it for myself. I do believe if i went on, i would be much stronger.

I then finish squats off with paused ATG barbell squats or paused pinned (right above atg) squats
I then move on to some hamstring exercises. I do body weight hamstring curls on the GHD machine or lying/seated leg curls
Also do alot of Barbell or machined hip thrust ( i am big on this motion, helps to lock out squats/deadlifts).
Then always some type of calf work

mirin' legs
you definitely should cut. Would look real good. I used to always hover around 20% but recently, I cut into the low teens and am now just taking life easy and maintaining. Remaining stable is easier than it seems. Just don't eat like a hippo and you'll be good.

I have 2 reasons to not cut right now honestly.
1. I have being gaining strength at a steady rate, it would be hard to cut calories and watch the numbers stop or decrease.
2. It is almost a Sh!t hit the fan situation in america right now. I am keeping up with cardio, jogging 3+ miles once a week, and i d rather have the size/strength right now over aesthetics for self defense. When summer approaches and the world simmers down, i ll probably cut a bit.
Lights what is your age? i m thinking when i hit 40's i ll focus more on asethics year round so i dont have to slam my body under heavy loads.

When OP was lifting for 6 yrs (2009)
You certainly knew what you were doing early years as well. Your big ass squat stat makes sense looking at those legs.
You're my inspiration now. Would rep but on rc..

So if you really are not built for squats, i d say still do them, but do throw in leg press tooo.When OP was lifting for 6 yrs (2009)
