Lifting Question

Gyms opened up again in my city last week. I know Gavin Retardson will force them to close again within the next month or two. What do you guys think about dreamer bulking like 20 lbs during this time, then doing bodyweight exercises and slow cutting (unintentionally) after relockdown?

I'm just starting my lean bulk. Not even going to the gym.

I have a reinforced duffle bag that holds 150lbs of weight (use sand in other small backs that come with it)

I also have a jump rope and 20lb dbs. Going to get absolutely yoked and conditioned. Add in hill sprints on the weekends.

Not going to a gym that requires a mask to lift and will be enforced to put on in between lifts.

Oh yeah, Last time they skimped me on meat (literally put like 2oz) I stood there and bertstared the guy while the next employee was asking what else I wanted on the burrito. I ignored her completely and continued to bertstare him while he was tending to the next customer. The girl kept saying "excuse me sir" but she didn't even exist to me. This ******* knew I was bertstaring him hard and was getting nervous and shakey and didn't know what to do. After he helped a few customers he could no longer help any more because the line was jammed up and my eyes were still locked on his.

Finally he muttered "ca...can I help y..you?" and while staring him directly into the eyes I pointed to the steak. He nervously grabbed the spoon and put more steak on and my eyes left his for a fraction of a second to verify it was the correct amount, then I continued to bertstare him while telling the other employee what else I wanted. I never took my eyes off his while I was finishing up the burrito, paying, and getting napkins. I even walked backwards out of the store so I could continue to bertstare him. When I got into my truck I drove at a snails pace around the front windows and continued to bertstare him through the windows.

Pretty sure that ******* quit after that, never saw him again.

Gotta stop relying on commercial gyms.

Start saving for a basic home setup.

Bulking as a natural is potato. Dirty bulking is even worse

I can't gain strength without gaining weight

I've got a rucksack which holds 70 lbs and got 2 jugs of water about 40 lbs each but I've already peaked with weighted pushups and lunges, there's no progressive overload left to be done.

I'm haven't been buying anything lately. Graduated college with STEM degree in the middle of this chitshow and there's no way I'm going back to the grocery store, so I'm basically a poor, plus, even if I had money, there's no room for free weights.
