This is my most recent.
(Wasn’t planning on using this pic so excuse the dodgy pose)
I don’t regularly track calories or macros I just use consistency and routine if that makes sense.
My calories are roughly 4000, my protein tends to be around the late 200’s and I’m afraid I couldn’t tell you the carb/fat split.
I’m not much help I know
You look great now.
Really hard to give direction without knowing what you’re doing.
Are you guessing about the 4000cals?
Do you eat the same things daily or do you just wing it and keep track of protein?
What did you eat today?
What things do you eat that aren’t conducive to fat loss?
First find the low hanging fruit and clean that up. After that it’s really just cals in/out for the most part. Playing around with macros can def accelerate things but with the amount of cals your eating and your current condition I think just being mindful of what your eating and limiting high carb/fat meals would be a great start.
High carb and pro or high fat and pro is good but keep the fatty/high carb meals to a minimum.
Cheers mate.
I eat the same thing every day, I know it’s roughly the 4000 mark. I know the protein from last time I tracked it but I just can’t remember the carbs and fats.
I do have a plan for my diet as I start to drop.
It was more the training side I’m curious about, shall I keep volume the same or lower it slightly because of recovery?
Also do you think 8 weeks is roughly the right amount of time? It doesn’t need to be precise as it’s just for a holiday and curiosity really to see what I look like leaner
8 weeks is plenty of time.
Typically when I’m dieting and cals are getting lower I will drop intensity and up volume but your still eating a ton of food so I think you should just keep doing what your doing until you feel like your starting to struggle recovering.
What are you doing for cardio?
15 min am and 15min pm goes a long way.
I haven’t started any yet, but I’ll try a fast walk on my treadmill am and pm once I start cutting then mate cheers.
Thanks for your time, I appreciate it
It’s been a while
I got home from Egypt last week and it’s time to start trying to build some muscle again. And I’d like to have a reference photo for next year. And what better place to store it.
Early bulk plan, just maintenance on the upper body (1 upper session per week, low volume) and really try and hammer the legs (2 lower sessions per week, med/high volume)
Ordinarily soon as my calories go up it all goes above the waist. Hoping this approach will allow the wheels to grow a little.
I plan on doing this for 2 months and then reassessing.
Wish me luck
