I agree. I think bulking and cutting are advanced things that shouldn't even be considered until you know your body well, let alone a complete beginner trying them. All you need to do is eat big, sleep big, and lift big, and your body will transform.
Bulking and cutting introduce so many other factors on top of your weight training that trying to go into bulk or cut mode can throw you off.
Try Starting Strength. Then, try something else. Try a bunch of different routines over a long period of time and see how your body handles different exercises and programs. Once you get a good grip on how your body reacts to weight training, then bulk or cut depending on your goals. That way, you can focus solely on your diet, and not really have to worry about how a new diet AND routine are jointly going to affect your body as a beginner, at the same time.
