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.

Yeah sounds good bro

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

Started at 194 and am 190 now... 2000 cals a day. Refeed every two weeks or so with the occasional YOLO after hard workouts.

2 weeks in and in noticing changes already but my gf says I look the same.

Haters gonna hate.

Damn, nice. I can see veins in the chest when I flex but they aren't raised at all. Such is life for a white brah though, can see most veins before they actually come out. Agree that chest veins are ****ing sick, and want to drop the ~10-12 more lb. to get them to pop when I lift.

If I have to get to the 160's, so be it. Really, REALLY hoping I don't though. Nothing I own would fit anymore. Most of my work shirts r dumb now.

Wow in the same boat there, have lost some weight this year and now half my wardrobe is useless. Brb 2 pairs of pants that fit, no summer clothes.


Time to gamble I won't be gaining it back and buy some new fresh clothes

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

Lookin' pretty aesthetic to me bro, 2-3 more lb. and you will be entering shredded territory. You did your cut exactly right.

How tall are you brah? Always thought of you as being tall enough that 160 would be anemic...

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.

5'9. I will likely not need to hit the 160's for what I'm looking for though. My six pack is basically there. The bottom two come out in this little "pack pouch", they just lack definition. Serratus is defined. Will have some pics tonight.

Gotta get us some progress pics eventually brah.
I'm back, bitches!

Nice, would call it at 5 more pounds tho as a natty. You'll be entering an area where you can make very little shred gains and most likely just lose real gains instead. Basically saying your already 10-12% and anything lower on natty's is risky territory(un-sustainable) unless your doing contest prep and it will be a short thing.

I had a feeling that 10 lbs might be too ambitious. Thanks for the feedback, i'll probably heed to your advice and end the cut earlier

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.
