I'm very lifting on and off for past 2 years. (maybe training 4 months then stopping and trying again the next year)
And not really tacking my calories or protein intake.
Now, I'm looking to get more serious and try to put muscle mass. Started more serious 1 month ago and doing PPL currently and focusing on progressive overload. I also tried cutting in the past without muscle mass and ended up at 140lbs without any actual muscles. So a lot of fuckaroundtis
Should I start with a cut, bulk or recomp ? Any advices?
My bench number currently is : 155x8 for 3 sets
My weight : 156 lbs
Height : 5'10''
Not sure about my body fat %, maybe around 18% ?

Long term goal would be something similar to these pictures :
