Think I’m ready to just go back on maintenance calories. What do you guys think? Hit a two week mini cut and it seems successful. Starting to get that stringbean look in shirts again due to lack of muscle but pretty comfortable where I’m at atm.
May have like three days at a surplus to gain a few lbs over the next few months but come September it’s time to hit the food hard. Sound like a good idea or should I push for super auschwitz?

Just stick around maintenance and hit your lacking body parts hard. I'm in the same boat and just sticking around 190-200 lbs all summer.

Ive been reading a lot of Mike Israetel's stuff lately and he recommends eating in a surplus for an 8-12 week volume block followed by a quick 4-6 week mini cut to keep BF in check. That the route Im taking. Planning to get back up to 163-165 before I hit the mini cut.

I watched a few couple videos by Jeff Nippard, Omar Isuf, etc and they all talk about how productive a quick minicut every few months is for keeping BF in check while bulking.
It sounds like the most viable way in my opinion because you don’t feel disgusted with yourself and can stay in a state of growth for a longer amount of time over the years compared to a bulk then a full blown cut

Almost finished with my 12 week cut. Not aesthetic yet but hoping to be close before too long. Gonna start adding calories back in, in another three weeks or so

A couple of flexed pics I'm guessing I'm closing in on 10% at the moment

Take a moment to appreciate how far you've come guys. I was ranting in the car yesterday and my wife asked me to shut up and pose when I came home. She showed me before pics she had taken of me and...well it's a world apart.
I'll never be fully satisfied with where I am but I can say I look a lot better now than I used to when I started lifting just over a year ago.
Keep it up brahs and brahettes. Positive Friday Vibes.

I've lost 70lbs since starting my diet. I'm down to 190lbs from 260lbs. I have 20lbs to go until I'm down to 170lbs and then I'm clean bulking.
Give my a year or 2 and I'll be where I want to be with my physique. Even after that im going to keep training because I know I'll never stop being a gym rat. I gave up on fitness and powerlifting once already and this time I'm going all in and putting 110% into the gym and train hard like a motherfuker. I'm going to powerbuild.
