Macadamias are great for bulking
Almonds would be suitable for cutting (in moderation)

Almonds, but don't go crazy a handful is a serving size.

pistachios
pecans
roasted soy nuts (very addicting)

almonds and walnuts tend to be the best for cutting like said above

Agree with the above Almonds. Besides being a healthy fat of course they are a natural testosterone supporter

meh...there's already s mch soy in everything that I'm nt a huge fan, especially given their estrogenic effects. Now in moderation, probably they're ok, but I feel there are better options out there.

Almonds are great as a low cost healthy option. Macademia are good too...

Cant believe you guys have left out cashews for a cut also.compare the nutrition facts with almonds but again in moderation.1/3 cup a day if you are using other sources of good fats throughout the day
