Training days
Protein: 220 grams x 4 = 880
Fat: 80 x9 = 720
Carbs 300x 4 = 1200
Totals: 2800 cals

Off days
Protein: 220 x 4 = 880
Fat: 120 x9 = 1080
Carbs: 210x 4 = 840
Totals: 2800

If anyone has any suggestions or comments please share
Every week carbs will be dropped 10 grams

I’ll try to help dude.
First off, what kind of carbs are you eating? If your goal if fat loss, that is a fairly high carb intake, and there is almost no way you will lose fat. Time for a quick science lesson then you can make the decision for yourself. When you eat simple/complex carbs they break down into sugar (glucose) in the blood, the pancreas secretes insulin, insulin then shuttles sugar around to the liver and the muscles. However, once your liver/muscles are full the sugar has NOWHERE TO GO EXCEPT FAT CELLS. Also, if there is glucose present all the time, your body says “This shit burns quick, we don’t need to use fat as fuel, lets burn this stuff!” Basically your body never gets a chance to break into it’s fat stores to burn them instead of the ever present sugar.

There is a solution. If we do not eat large doses of carbohydrates, and there is not a spike in blood glucose levels, our body will burn fat as fuel. Since there is no glucose, and gluconeogenesis (using protein as fuel) is not a terribly efficient process, fat is the best option. If this makes sense and you want some food ideas just let me know.
