but you might be forgetting where a persons calorie intake starts, i.e., how much past "maintenance" has the person been eating while bulking.
Yes aerobic exercise must be added but there is a point to where you can not add anymore aerobic exercises and something has to give. Also, you add too much aerobic exercises or performing it longer than needed, 2+ hours for example, your body become too efficient at storing energy when working out to perform these exercises, for example long distance runners and sprinters. On top of that your body needs to rest and if your body is always stressed then you will start producing hormones that retain fat.
