      Hi, I am starting a bulk. I will be eating on average 3500-4000 calories including supplements.
      And I was thinking of adding 20 minutes of cardio before and after my workouts to keep the fat gain at a minimum.
      Is this a good idea? Or will it affect my muscle gains?

      Please help me out. Its needed!

      Cardio while bulking?

      How much do you weigh? That's a lot of calories, and your picture doesn't look too big. I am bulking and the only cardio I do is a short bike ride to and from the gym.

      Cardio while bulking?

      I weight 66KG. Thats what I was wondering, because its so much calories, will a lot of cardio be necessary? I like doing cardio so its not a problem? what do you think?
