I’m down 40 lbs since my divorce about 9 months ago. Should I keep cutting or is it time to bulk??

Thanks for the advice and further motivation bros.

>we’re all gonna make it

Yeah man it’s amazing the motivation that comes with getting out of a toxic relationship. I know I still have a ways to go, but I feel better than I ever have.

My fiance left me about 4 months ago and I'm down about 30 pounds. Also a highly toxic relationship. These bitches literally poison your mind and body.

As a side note, I recommend all Jow Forumsizens read Rational Male so they can avoid the mistakes I've made.

Keep your diet the same and hop on test. It’s time to leave humanity behind. It’s time to make her live in regret.

>and hop on test.

How can I get that?

keep cutting. we are only half way through summer. dont know wtf people are saying bulk for.

Dude, fucking good job, man. Since having to break up with my gf for trying to cuck me I'm down 35 pounds since Christmas and have more muscle mass than I've ever had in my life. Still an absolute twink but it beats the absolute shit out of full on skinnyfat. Just keep doing whatever you're doing for a while because it's obviously working.

Hell yeah man! Lookin sweet

Don't do the juice.
Just do a lean bulk, you are still in you first year and their are a ton of noob gains still to be made.

Congrats mate, looking good. I'd lean towards maintenance until the winter, then start to bulk if you're looking to build up more muscle

what are we like this? why do we only get our shit together AFTER she's gone, bros?

you looking gud btw

Only weak minds get fat after settling

One push-up per dollar of alimony

>tfw 5'8 165 and i look like your left picture
do i really need to drop to 125 to not look like shit?

Because she actively sabatoges you and brings you down with emotional and mental abuse.
It's amazing how well you can swim when you don't have a fucking anchor chained to your waist.

which means it will always happen the first time you settle.

heartbreak is inevitable.

Fun fact: If you maintained a body like your after picture through your marriage, you'd probably be happily married right now. Yes, women really are that shallow. Spilled milk and all that, but food for thought during your next relationship.

what'd you do man ?

2 Reasons:

1. Women take up a lot of time and will always get in the way of focusing on yourself. You can boil down everything to one of two things: Work and Relaxation. Being with a woman is work; going out and spending time together, socializing with her friends, figuring out what to eat, etc. Once you fulfill all of her needs you have some time for yourself and well... all work and no play makes jack a dull boy, so you use what free time you have just to relax and enjoy yourself. Whenever you are alone you can have your cake and eat it too. Work your ass off one day in the gym, play vidya and chill the next. You will literally always be doing something YOU want to do (except the obvious job/school work) so improving yourself and becoming a better person becomes easier. Along with that there is the motivation from getting out of that relationship, which leads to point two...

2. "It's better to have love and lost, than to never love all." Why though? Why is it better to have experience the pain of losing someone than to be blissfully ignorant? As someone who has recently gone through a divorce with someone I thought I was going to spend the rest of my life with, it became clear. Losing love will motivate you to find love again. It's easy to be a lazy slob who hates themselves when they've never experience love; knowing what its like will only help you strive to experience it again. That love doesn't need to come from else either. Getting Jow Forums will help you love yourself, to be a better person for yourself. You have no distractions and you have one goal, to feel love again.

Also, good shit OP.

Anyone know if I should start cutting or bulking up?
If so how much should I cut?

Your pics are good inspiration for me user. I have different fat distribution than you but I didn't think I could get down to 165 at 6ft. I was aiming for about 180 but I will try to see how low I can go.

gotta hit chest more fa.m

shave your face
keep cutting for 2 or 3 months until you lose that last bit of belly

Fuck m8, that’s $1000.00 a month for another year.

It really varies. I mostly follow a cal in vs cal out diet. I try to stick to healthier non processed food. I work out a solid 5 times a week with a mix of weights and cardio. A typical week looks like:

Sun: Chest/Bi
Monday: 45 min outdoor run
Tuesday: Back/Legs
Wednesday:Off or brisk 20 min walk
Thursday: 25 min of HIIT
Friday: Shoulders and Tri
Sat: Off

Lol- maybe so, but probably not. She’s with a fat fuck right now.

He's 165lbs. That's very very skinny unless he's a height fraud. What's the point of cutting from there? Bulking here on will get him stronger and bigger. His bodyfat isn't that high, sure he's not ripped but he can lose the rest later

I've seen your other pic. Post more pls

Good shit brah. My gf broke up with me at the beginning of the year and I've decided that I gotta be a sick cunt to spite her.

That pic is only about week before this recent one. Here is a 9 month progression.

Diet? Cardio?

Diet: mostly clean, but honestly I just focus on calories in vs calories out. I also do IF, but that’s really more because I don’t care for breakfast. I’ve been on a roughly 500 cal deficit a day.

Cardio: 3 times a week. 2 steady state runs and one HIIT session. Sometimes my second steady state run is substituted for a brisk walk. When lifting, I generally focus on intensity. I typically rest 30-45 seconds between sets and I’m in and out of the gym in under 40 mins.

Do you feel better

I feel like a new person. It’s like a huge burden has been removed from my life, both mentally and physically. I’m still highly motivated towards my goals.

You are basically me but from the future, I'm doing all the same shit you are doing, with similar height and weight/goals. You give me hope. I have one question though:

How did you get more tan?

I run with my shirt off and go to the pool. I’m naturally more tan, but my body without a shirt on had not seen the sun in years lol. If you look at my forearms they’re actually just as tan in all the pics.

Solid progress, OP. Great job.

Did you just cut at -500? What was your lifting routine?

keep going just a little bit bro, im in a similar state atm and cutting is a bitch but why quit when you are this close to abs?

OP here. Forgot to tell y’all that I don’t do squats or dead lifts due to the fact that I have 2 herniated discs in my lower back. I still work the hell out of my legs and core though.

>there are alternatives
>you can still make it

Nah. Got married when we were 21- way too young. 10 years later we were just such different people and grew apart a lot. It just wasn’t a good fit for either of us.

Good shit man. How long did it take?

really amazing work OP. congratulations, you look fantastic, i wish you all the best. :)

Bump

You fuckin' made it bro. Congrats

Thanks man. I recomped for about 7 months until I hit a plateau and I've been on a cut since early April.
