How long is your typical bulking and then cutting period?

Don't normally have any specific times. I basically just maintain weight until recently as I believe I am close to the maximum amount of muscle I'll get to. That was around 86kg.

Now cutting for first bb comp. Will be a total of 20 weeks.
 
For me I used to do the old school 10-12 week bulk then cut etc etc - Have not done this for years but have planned to go old school again after the rugby season - I will be doing a 10 week bulk - followed by a cut - then another shorter bulk and then trying to lean down and maintain for next season.

I found this used to work very well for me - as I stated I have not followed this for years but think its worth a crack again.
 
I bulk for most of the year...I cut for about a week after the festive season because I feel guilty!! Lol
