I probably have more muscle than I've ever had in my life right now, and have been super stressed out due to work projects that are behind schedule and turning into a mess. Have been working out hard, but also binge eating pretty much daily. My current daily calorie consumption has averaged something like 4000-5000 every single day over the last month.

I keep expecting my belly to start getting fat, which would signal that it's time for me to relax a bit and cut. But my belly actually keeps getting flatter(while my core muscle keeps increasing).

Is it just that I have enough muscle that my metabolic rate is like 5000cal burned per day? Is this even possible? I'm 6'3'', 260 right now. Probably about 19% bf.

Same thing will happen to me then I'll just start to blowup.

I always felt I looked best about 4-5 weeks into a bulk. Still shredded but muscles are super full. Then at that 5 week mark I transform into the FLEX doughboy overnight.

Yeah, you're just around the corner now about to FLEX up

Maybe you're just moving a lot, lots of NEAT as well as working out properly. You're also 6'3".

So 4-5k calories a day isn't THAT big of a deal if those things are in check plus a decent metabolism

You're welcome

A bit worried about the Flex, because that is a terrible look. Maybe I'll just start a mini-cut and see what happens.

Belly flatter?

The fact that you have a belly and no abs tells me you're a fat fukk. (Ded fkn Srs)
