How long does your bulk/cut cycle last for?

[DarkShadow]

As per thread title,

About a year ago I was overweight at ~200lb. I lost a lot of bodyfat, I got down to 155lb. As of the past 4-5 weeks I've been bulking and I'm on the brink of 170lb. I've added a bit of bodyfat as you can imagine.

Now the question is how long do you guys cycle in between the bulk/cut cycle?

I bulked for 6, and then cut for 2.

Went upto 20% bodyfat. Then got back down to 12%

Worst 8 months of my life, it seriously isn't worth it unless you plan to compete

Just lean bulk like I am now, I'm getting good gains and my fat gains are pretty much non existant

After doing a lot of reading, I'm drawn to the same conclusion.
