So much win in this thread. Did i miss why you started cutting? If so i apologize. Same with your height sorry if i missed it.

Cant wait to see your diet i loved what you were diong before.[/quote]

Im 6 feet tall

I started cutting because mentally i cannnot handle gaining more at this point, holding 250+ was hell because i literally got tired just moving around, walk up the stairs and would get lower back pumps, walk to my car from school and my calves were pumped lol. I have adapted to this weight now so I might aswell be leaner since i wont be all out gaining for months. My cardio is back to normal which is naturally very strong.

Also Im throwing the idea around about competeing in a natural bodybuilding show within the next year or so, which i would like to be lean year round so the contest diet isnt that bad. Also with PL i would like to compete in either the 240 weight class or the 220 depending how strong i am at 220. I probably will be fairly lean at 220 but wel have to see about that too.

My diet so far is awesome and Im planning to not eat 1 typical bodybuilder meal throughout my entire cut.

The reason i would like to stay leaner aswell is id like to change my body`s set point before gaining again, i think i have the genetics to stay reasonably lean while bulking.

also if i contest diet my diet for however long i have to cut for most likely the only foods i will consume will be

whey protein, egg whites, oatmeal, coconut oil, almond butter

I probably wont consume hardly any solid meals

Ive been toying around with a strength/hypertrophy idea for a while now, I know a lot of people that get great results training with a variation of the Layne Norton PHAT method but i refuse to use someone elses ideas anymore, all pros have different ideas and programs and if Im going to be great then i want mine aswell damnit!

ok so i had around 2500 calories yesterday and the day before, today im not sure how much Im going to have lol. Im keeping it lower because im going out friday and saturday night this week and saturday were going to this amazing pizza place lol so Im saving those calories.

technically if i wanted to i could eat 3400 today but im going to keep it lower, if i keep saving calories then by friday or saturday i might be up to 4000 :smiley:

I have not had results this fast on a diet before its only been 6 days including today and i feel and look a helluva lot better, still a long way to go but i might even be gaining size so far. My cals are low, considering im still above 245 and i do not have a slow metabolism but because of the high carbs and moderate fats i have tons of energy, still the same strength and results are steady, this cut is actually enjoyable!

Im going to hop on my new bodypart split today since its an off day and i can start chest shoulders tris tomorrow

had 1600 calories so far today it was good muwahahaha i wont eat til probably around 6 lol its 3:45 right now

holllaaaaaa lol

Training chest tris and shoulders tomorrow using my new split with my buddy hopefully ill have more vids up i might just make a youtube channel lol

I just looked at my old mess of a log on here and saw that even way back then i got a 450 deadlift and this was sooo long ago. If i actually trained it all this time id probably have well over 600 because everytime i try it i get a PR, saturday im going to get 585 i know it!

haha thanks, my pressing is a tiny bit weaker already on my diet but with the way im training now will hopefully get stronger!

feel good though ive been reading through george leemans log on another wbsite and DAMN guys ripped now and huge, I want to be in the same neihborhood of leanness when im done this as he is now. Its going to take time but im cool with that

going to change the diet a bit might add more carbs etc.

my go to meal on the road is wendys single lol the nutrition profile is decent but im now changing this to 2 grilled chicken wraps because i want less fat, might ask to hold the cheese even… lol

my macros for the day today are:
carbs 360
protein: 200?? guess i might bring it up another 40g
fat: 50g

cals:2700 calories not bad lol i have to drink 2 cups of egg whites before bed to even make it 200g protein because i have 150 right now lol

I was thinking about my hypertorphy portion of my week and I think thaaat I should change it up from the last week, my muscles were not pumped and engorged with blood last week so this week im going to make sure they are, this is what ive been thinking

Chest, Shoulders Triceps

Speed Bench 6x3
Flat dumbbell twist press 4x10
Incline Dumbbell press 4-5x8-12
Rope pushdowns 4x15
HS dip machines 3x10
Incline dumbbell extensions 3x12-15
HS shoulder press 4x8-10
shoulder saver with bent over flys instead of db presses
3-4 rounds

Back Bis Traps Rear delts
Pullups 50 reps
HS pulldowns 4x10
Reverse grip pull downs 3x10
Marshall shrugs 3 working sets of 12-15
Hammer curls 3x12
Close grip ez bar curls 3x8
seated db curls 3x10

Hamstrings is the same i thought that was an awesome workout except ill be easing off deadlifts for a month and focusing on squats

upper body was good today I think for Biceps and triceps im just going to do 3 working sets, one of 6-8, one with 8-10 and one with 12-15 hernon style using different exercises

so
rope pushdowns 8-10
Incline extensions of i might even do french presses 12-15
hs dips x5-7

then bis
hammer curls x5
close grip curls x8-10
seated db x12-15

thatl eep volume down but will still be awesome i think

i hated rope hammer curls so im taking that out haha
