put that fork down and start running
/summerCut/ 2019
>running
Fuck no, I'll just put the fork down more.
What's a good replacement for chicken?
ice cubes and cotton
Lamb and goat are great
depends on your fat macros
Skinless chicken breast is already one of the best sources of protein calorie-wise. Tuna or sardines in water maybe?
Are all these "lmao cut 4 months out" threads from fatties? Or what?
Some people go all in on IIFYM or 'dirty bulking' but realistically I don't think most people are any more than 20lbs overweight. You should be able to lose 2lbs a week pretty comfortably imo, that should only take 2 months.
If you live in a Northern Hemisphere Summer doesn't really start until June.
I just started bulkang
ostrich
Ive been in forever bulk lately so when i do a proper cut, im going to be so anxious about doing it right.
Im 188 now, still in bulk. Plus its winter here still and june is when summer starts around here. Ive got time
Nigga, I haven't eaten in 2 days, already lost like 3 kilos
Fish, shrimp.
It's not that hard Imo. Take a modest deficit eat much cleaner with less carbs alcohol bread sugar and tack on 15m of jogging.
I lost about 15lbs in about 6 weeks without any strength dips.
This. I'm not cutting until mid-April
Turkey
>cutting this early
how fat are you
>didn't gain much muscle or strength this bulk
>Weight stalled and strength decreased for a month due to shoulder injury
>Chest didn't grow at all
>Cut will get rid of what little gains I made
This is year three of this bullshit
> that tiny cup
Pathetic
You didn’t bulk hard enough. Or you need roids.
I HATE CUTTING SO FUCKING MUCH
GODDAMMIT WHY CAN SOME PEOPLE CUT AT ABOVE 2000 CALS
>tfw you will never be a Chad
Pic related is ~September
About 150lbs give or take
This is me at 165, ~16 weeks later
About 1lb a week, nice steady gains apart from the no-strength-gains part
Pretty sure I hit my Natty limit and it pisses me off so much
6 weeks out from my spring break. Aiming for 10 lbs down by then so I’m looking good shirtless.
You fags are going to the beach over spring break right?
user...
> nice gains
> no strength gains
??
nah, im increasing my strength
losing fat is easy (went from 300 to 200)
gaining muscle is hard, eating a surplus is wierd, and not training everyday is wierd
just hitting heavy weights, linear increases is slow as fuck, but gotta keep trucking at it
how does your workout routine change to adapt to cutting?
i do heavy compounds and lighter accessory movements. do i run the same program or switch it?
do i need to involve cardio in the equation?
i know it's all about how much i eat, but i feel that the intense workouts dig into my hunger and make it difficult to eat less.
Ugh fucking spring break. My self hatred will be peaking.
I realized yesterday i have a bit more fluff than i like. So i guess ill be starting another cut. 15 pounds would be good for me, probably ve pretty ripped after that. I wanted to to do a test cycle though...shoukd i wait until after cut/summer? Or should i just say fuck it qnd do a cycle?
pic related has less chances of poisoning you when compared to tuna and most other fish.
Not that you'd get poisoning from fish unless you were eating retarded amounts of it (like that woman who was coo-coo and made 5 meals a day all comprised of canned tuna).
Steady weight gain I should specify
I'm making gains in weird places but none of which I'm satisfied with (muscular endurance, cardio, flexibility)
I think I'm gonna have to go full lean-cardio-reps mode because this bulking shit is not working out
How much tuna would be too much tuna? Especially for a big guy.
I love me some tuna-mayo-olive-onion salad
maybe don't have such a big surplus and either train better or do a different split
Rucking Chad dining they hen basedboy face and still looking like a meat juicy.
LONDON?
You have to be trolling bro. You literally just got fat. You can NOT gain muscle if you gained weight without strength gains. Our bodies don’t work that way. Holy shit you ruined a good physique albeit you were a manlet living in someone’s attic.
losing fat is easy if you're obese because it's difficult NOT to be in a calorie deficit. Once you get down to a normal weight losing fat gets exponentially harder, a day of binging causes you to lose half a week of progress, you lose at a slower rate, and you have to be way stricter about what you eat.
>from sexy to SS in 4 months
Look guys, I literally don't understand it. I gained strength and muscle very easily the first two years.
My routine isn't ironclad but it should work.
AxBxAxBx...
A:
>Stretching
>Warmup jog or rowing
>BB rows (8 rep) or lat pulldown (8-10 rep)
>Deadlift (warmup, 1x8, 1x5, 1x3)
>OHP (2x8, 1x5)
>Hammer curls, optional
>Cardio at end
B
>Stretch/warm up run
>BB flat or Incline bench, both 8 and 5 rep range
>Cable flies 3x12
>Decline weighted situps, superset with pushups
>Triceps pushdown 3x12
>End cardio
I eat plenty of protein, I carb up and coffee before workouts, I get big oost-workout meals with protein, I sleep 8-9 hrs, and I drink plenty of water.
Doctor said everything checked out alright, I just don't know what to do.
Got shoulder impingement since December so that's fucked up what little progress I had started to make.
>no squats
Nigga it's January. What kind of genetic dead end do you have to be to have to start cutting for over four mouths to have a halfway decent physique?
Late March at the earliest.
>no volume
>no legs
>no progression
You have a shoulder impingement because you don’t have any fucking rear delt movements. Unironically start doing the face pulls now. If you want to gain muscle, you need to get stronger which means add fucking weight or reps each workout. You better be trolling this shit is pissing me off. Just cut back down to your first pic where you actually look good and maintain, you have no clue what you’re doing.
For you
I stopped doing face pulls because it gave me shoulder impingement, even watching countless videos on form.
I'm 140lbs soaking wet at 5'7 but not even lean enough to show what little I have so if I cut I'll just look fucking retarded.
For some reason normies will tell me I'm fit but you look at those numbers and tell me how that could even be possible I JUST WANNA LOOK GOOD
nice m'lord
how many calories are yall cutting on?
2500 here
>5’7
>ever looking good
That’s a yikes from me, partner. I strongly recommend facemaxxing and walletmaxxing instead.
how fucking short are you that you can look like that at 150
>time to cut for summer
>its like -5 outside
yeah okbud
5'6 buddeh
I'm cutting now so I don't have to be frantically doing it during late spring, a time of year I actually enjoy
always test cycle when you've cut below 15% BF
please do squats...
>stretching before a workout
>no legs
>low volume
>three years of lifting
You've been running a shitty program for way too long. Look up intermediate/advanced routines and pick one.
Hey it’s that guy the Korean girl was fawning over
2200kcal here, will get 8%bf by May
Fair enough. I'm in Ontario so its not hot enough to enjoy the weather outside until 4-5 months for me. I only need to lose like 15lbs at most anyways so who cares.
ooooh fuck user i wanna make halal now.
I'm already below haha
Generally this is where most of my protein comes from, cut or bulk.
>chicken breast
>boneless chicken thighs (much more juicy than chicken breast)
>any beef cut
>ground beef (anything between 3 and 15% fat)
>fish(salmon and trout mainly)
wow, you're one of those genetic failures that has an excuse for everything. take note, anons, this is the kind of guy you don't want to be. this is the kind of guy who will never make it. this guy avoids responsibility for himself at all costs and it's always someone else's fault.
Losing 2lbs a week fucking sucks unless you're on clean/dnp. Don't kid yourself.
>Clean
Clen*
Anyway, I need to start the cut now because spring track season is coming up babby
