Been asking YOU for years why YOU won't leave.....
I know, 'cause you're a sissy  :D

Being a reactive person, you're always full of shit or in other words: you've never asked.
You can go back to your grave now, thanks.

For 198 pounds, I gotta say I'm in good condition, face is lean, lots of vascularity in the shoulders/arms/quads, I feel good/strong, my energy levels are really good. Not really broscience approach, honestly it's more of a emphasis on healthy foods approach: minimal processed foods, zero transfats, zero high fructose corn syrup, lots of easily digestable foods that allow me to eat high quantities, good amount of fiber, good amount of micronutrients, good amount of essential fatty acids.My elimination process is on point (2 solid dumps a day), minimal to zero bloat, minimal to zero gas.  A broscience diet is pretty much what you are stating: Ihop for breakfast (eggs, pancakes, and bacon), protein shake and muffins pre workout, post workout protein shake and poptarts, hit a Chinese buffet, and maybe a few 5 guys burgers for dinner, if you want a snack maybe a few Pb &J's. Would that approach get size on me faster? Probably, but for sure I would look like a meatball and feel like absolute shit.

You might feel worse, but if calories are the same, you would look exactly as lean as you are now

hes not joking mate...its true...
I work on a cruiseship, 90% of the passengers and crew eat the way you guys describe, none of them have a physique I desire, however there is one common denominator I see amongst them, they all seem to have impressive gut development.

Steve Davis would bulk back in the day.  Not sure how heavy he would get but he looks pretty fat in this shot.  No reason to ever be this fat.

so your advice is that if one can pick between two diets - pick the one that is the most unhealthy?

No, yours is the bro science diet. If you are ok/like it then that is perfectly fine but promoting it as being the only way/magical foods don't allow you to get fat that is complete bro science. Not saying you are doing that but your diet is not based on science, etc.

I think I remember #265 - #285 being his heaviest range. Draper was another guy that was pretty big.

The old advice (20 years ago) was to say close to the 10-12% bodyfat range when bulking. The logic being that it allowed you to eat and lift well, but wasn't hard to diet off.

That's basically whay Ric Drasin says in his videos as well.  It makes sense.  I bet most people have optimal health and hormonal profile at somewhere around 12% bodyfat.  I have read that if bodyfat is too high or too low, test levels will drop significantly.  12% seems like the best to aim for if you want that "I lift bruh" physique.
