How to get abs while bulking without losing size or strength

The best way to get abs while bulking is by following a high-protein, low carb diet.

While it’s important to maintain your muscle mass when bulking, you will still need some carbs in order to fuel workouts and keep up with your caloric intake.

For that reason, try sticking to complex carbs like sweet potatoes or oatmeal for breakfast. You can also eat more fruits than usual! But be sure not too exceed 20% of your total calorie intake from sugars and carbs since they are easy to overeat on. Try adding them into snacks as well! For example: add fruit slices onto an avocado toast or peanut butter sandwich for a healthy snack option that won’t break the calorie bank!

Some foods containing carbohydrates are rice, oatmeal, honey, table sugar, potatoes, among others, and can be classified according to the composition of their molecules in complex and simple carbohydrates.  Functions in the organism Carbohydrates are the main source of energy for the organism because during their digestion glucose is generated, being this the preferred fuel for the cells of the organism, since they degrade this molecule and ATP is produced, which is used in the various metabolic processes for the proper functioning of the organism.

Bariatric Surgery: What It Is, Types And Risks

Bariatric surgery is a set of surgical techniques used to treat excess weight, where the digestive system is altered in order to reduce the amount of food that enters the body and to modify the natural process of digestion, facilitating weight loss and improving or curing diseases associated with obesity.  There are several surgical techniques which can be restrictive or restrictive and malabsorptive at the same time. The restrictive techniques will only allow to reduce the amount of food ingested due to the reduction of the stomach volume. In the case of restrictive and malabsorptive techniques, in addition to reducing the size of the stomach, the intestine is also modified to reduce the absorption of nutrients, thus reducing the calories that enter the body. Because it is an invasive type of surgery, bariatric surgery is only indicated when the person has already tried to lose weight using other methods without obtaining any results, or when the excess weight puts the individual...
