I’m 220lbs, and 5’11, 25-30%bf
I have been lifting 2 years
BP:225
SQ:320
DL:385
Up to this point my diet has pretty much sucked, I would skip breakfast, eat shit, etc. Start of this year I began to improve on it but it still sucked. I began eating breakfast and stuff and “cleaner” but it all totalled to around 1800 cals and I wasnt gain mass or losing fat…which I def. got a lot of. It was hard to stick with a diet since I didn’t know what to eat and got a little confused with all the info. That stressed me out and I ended up eating bad again.
But I recently decided I’m gonna change all this, I never rly had a goal either. So here it is, a year from this day I want to compete in a body building show. Why a year from this day? The show I want to compete is today, so a year from today I want to be in that show and not place last. (which will be my second goal.)
Anyway, I was told to follow Chad W.'s method of eating 1 gram per lbs of protein, veggies with every meal, fishoil and space this out over 6 meals.
I will follow that diet along with his 10x3 for fat loss routine till new years, then clean bulk the rest of the year. Hopefully at my stage, I can lose some fat and gain muscle at the same time to a certain point.
then, the last 12 weeks, cut down for show time.
If anyone has any suggestions or advice I would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks!
Its good that you have selected a goal for yourself, thats the first step in anything.

well before it was routines like 5x5 and stuff.
I am going to use Waterbury’s 10x3 for fatloss as my routine for the next 4 weeks starting now. After that, I’m gonna make one with more volume since in these 2 years of training. I never rly did a routine that had a good amount of sets in the 5+ range so it will be a good change of pace. I’m shooting to train more now in the functional hypertrophy zone. Ill post that one up when I need to, I wanna take it one step at a time.
Thanks!

Thats a great start! In the past when I was losing weight, I did a lot of compound excersises like, squats, dips, bench press, deadlifts, cleans, pull ups. etc. They burn more callories than doing solo excersies… just a tip
