2 monthsLiftingLawyer (4): Just having a laugh My advice: 1. Ripped and big is not easy naturally 2. Condition is all diet 3. High condition cannot be permanently maintained 4. T-Nation 666 sprint routine is the best thing you can do in the gym to lean out 5. Add loads of volume to your weight training 6. Good luck!

Do I have enough muscle for a cut?

6 monthseknight (58102): No time to eat? C’mon bro, that’s not like having to make time to train. It takes 3 minutes to eat a pop tart and bottle of milk. If you want it, you’ll make it happen. If you don’t you'll make excuses. Not working out a way to fit meals in is no excuse to start a cut when you’re you don’t have enough muscle to start with though. -3X

Should I cut or Lean bulk? Advice/PICS

NoviceKev

1 yearmikew (11493): @NoviceKev if you calculate your BF% based on the 1RMs you give http://www.strongur.io/body_fat_calculator/) it would suggest a much lower BF than 16% but your pics don't seem to support that so it's hard to give accurate advice. I'm not saying that calculator is 100% accurate - it's only an estimate - and it could be way off in your case. So take it with a grain of salt... My sense is that a program focused on building strength will give you...

If you're asking could you win with your current physique, probably not but if you feel like the challenge or competing then go for it bro! Theres more to competing than just winning.

Ckenne5239

2 yearsAoverto7 (310): For starters, you need to be eating in a slight caloric deficit. Do you know what your maintenance calories are? Your protein levels should be higher than when eating in a caloric surplus, 1-1.2g/lb of body weight would be sufficient. This is going to help prevent catabolism of lean body mass. Also, the slower you can diet down, the more beneficial. Increase your NEAT and don't add in excessive cardio until it is necessary, depending on how...

2 yearsDorich (454): @LBC47 - While there certainly is a limit to how much fat you can burn in a day, that limit is definitely not a -500 kcal deficit, especially if you are eating and training right. Furthermore, the higher your body fat is, the larger the deficit you can easily / safely afford. Fat mobilization and oxidation are complex subjects that too many people oversimplify. The famous "31 kcal per pound of fat" rule comes from a study that did not...

Focus for another year on gaining muscle (small energy surplus, enough protein and progressive resistance training) 2. Cut until you get lean enough (small-moderate energy deficit, enough protein and progressive resistance training)

3 yearsLiftamusprime (364): What about lower body? Deadlifts won't just cut it for legs! you'll look out of proportion. Find a routine thats been properly designed and run it for a fair amount of time. You could try an upper/ lower split, theres a template in the routine for dummies thread but you might need less volume for your experience level. You also need to eat to grow..you'll find all the information you need in the faqs.

A week or so of not stuffing myself and I'm good to go.

4 yearstman87 (4): Thanks for the info mike. With me at a 500 cal deficit that would put me at 1900 calories. I don't want to look like a marathon runner neither. 150lbs will only put me at 5lbs less in than I am in the photo. P90x has Cardio days also with Some HIIT training in there as well so that's why I will be choosing to do another round with it it April. With 1900 calories and 35p/45c/20f would that help in lowering fat while retaing muscle? I'm hoping to...

4 yearsTamere02 (1474): @SnackIt Try weighing yourself everyday and getting an average for the week, relying on one day a week is unreliable imo (from what I take it you weigh in every Monday?) Regarding your nothing lost for a few weeks than a sudden weight lose, im going to say WATER WEIGHT. I assume your reduction in kcals (again I noticed you reduce them by quite a bit on a regular basis) is mainly carbs which when you lower you also tend to lose water weight...

The thing about bodybuilding and life in general is that you should always strive to better yourself and not become complacent. Not saying that you shouldn't be proud of what you've achieved, you did make some nice gainz.

deadlift and squat tehnique

golago

4 yearsMMB (3616): I personally don't like the way you lockout at deadlifts. Leaning backwards like you do can cause too much back hyperextension with that much load we put on ourselves when deadlifting. Maybe I'm wrong on this but when I use my glutes to lockout anyway I don't need to do that with my back and it makes you stay super straight over your gravity center. As for the squats, like everybody said.. Too fast, I used to do the same but @wannabemuscular...

I would bulk for 6 months+ easily at 3000+ calories per day with only gaining a nominal amount of fat, and by fat gain I only mean enough to prevent definition in my bigger muscles, never a ponch or enough...

4 yearsBeans (4204): Body fat % is almost a useless number. Would you feel any different if everyone said you were 5%? You won't get fat if you transition nice and slowly into a caloric surplus, but at this point it doesn't look like you have enough muscle to look really lean. Put some good effort into bulking properly, and you'll like the outcome.

This will fuck up your metabolism big time, because just like @Frostshock said you'll stop tweaking your macro's but will start doing cardio and have to increase it in order to keep losing weight. This will put you back to an unhealthy deficit probably even lower than...

5 yearsFrostshock (13324): Definitely not unless you're fine with gaining more fat than you have to. Refer to this example ---> So using your ACTUAL numbers, I would go back down to 2300 calories and track for a week. If I'm still gaining greater than or equal to .5lbs per week, I would stay at 2300, if NOT I would raise it up to 2400. Sometimes this can take 1 week, sometimes 3, but gaining is gaining and as you stated you don't want to gain any...

Because 2 months out is too close to bring up lagging parts and posing technique is going to be your best bet at this point to make certain parts look bigger/proportional. Where's the wheel pics? Not sure how much it matter if you're wearing swim trunks. Guess nice calfs would be a factor.

5 yearsNorIda (46954): Yesterday was ME upper day. Weights felt heavier than shit. I was warming up and did 315x2 and thought I was gonna die. put on 335, felt solid, worked up to 365, and then hit 385. Felt pretty damn happy with that. It was the cleanest I have hit it, haven't hit it in ages, and will be hitting 405 clean! Pretty stoked Nothing too fancy after that, just did some Close grip bench. rows for the hoes, more hoes with rows, and hit my rear delts.

5 yearsOptimusPrime (1257): No probs. Just get a DEXA Scan at the end of your diet, take an epic selfie and keep it with your results on the day so you have a benchmark. You could also get calliper tested by the same person on the day, and compare it to the scan results, if they have a minimal error margin, you can be confident in their pinching abilities. Best 'o luck.

The key is to cut out all Carbs(Mega Potions, Diggletts, etc) and Fats (Leftovers or Fried Snorlax) and ONLY eat Protein. I also shot up Creatine and snorted BCAAs but that was a dark period of my life when I was adjusting to the Pokeball.

And of course fit in some junk good to feed your cravings but for the most part stick to nutrient dense foods to keep u full and supply your body with the micro nutrients and fibre it needs. Good luck man!

Corb90

5

5 yearsFiremanSi (42364): Start with a deficit... monitor results for a week. If u've lost a 1lb.. perfect.. monitor for next week. No Loss ?? Lower cals or add cardio.. Repeat !! Easy as that. Tough part is curtailing the hunger.. High volume foods i.e. food with more water in them, less cals. i.e. Strawberries instead of raisins Blueberries instead of bananas Addition of spinach, salads, tomatoes, cucumbers. I'm sure u get the point now. :)

Story so far....

5 yearschriselkins (1597): I wouldn't BULK because at your body fat you might end up FULKING hard. I'd just keep lifting and eat whatever you think maintenance is for your body. Keep your protein high enough and try not to over or under eat too bad and don't feel bad about a few higher calorie days here and there. You should gain strength and muscle mass while your body does some slight re-composition. Bulking hard at body fat over 15 and 20% doesn't lead to a ton of...

6 yearscardinal (6175): Really cut my kcals again this week. Time for a big weigh in tomorrow. Hoping those scales will put me near 158 lbs. After that I'm questioning how much lighter I can get. Also got a 170kg x 6 squat on Wednesday. At 160 lbs. Less than a month now and I also get my life back from work. Just need to maintain this warrior monk like focus. Wake, eat, lift, study, meal prep, sleep, repeat. All there is right now.

I prefer it also cause I control better my food intake.

Thats INSANE going from 40% to 17% in under a year- you have gotten stronger as well, its not like you've went out and just stopped eating- do you eat more now than you did when you were 40%? your metabolisms probably got a lot faster (pressuming you didn't do much physical activity before you started lifting and yoga etc).

6 yearscardinal (6175): Keep an eye out for your lower back arch. If you look at your squat your lower back and pelvis curl under as you reach the bottom of the lift. It means you're essentially compressing the spine. This will lead to injury so it's best to correct it now. Focus on sitting back into the squat and breaking with the hips and knees simultaneously. If needed, do box squats till form is corrected. Keep at it and you'll be at 200 kg by the time you're 20...

Also, maybe re-set the weight each time and make sure to pull the slack out of the bar. But dude it really did look solid man. Atleast your not going to snap some shit up like some deads...

6 yearsZny93 (91): Well that "ripped abs and throbbing arms" would be a cut, which is eating ~500 calories less than what your BMR says. Cutting is lowering your body fat percentage, and dropping weight. And with carbs, IF you go on a cut, eat around 100g of carbs a day, this will force your body to use up stored fat rather than the carbs, losing weight & fat. That's what brings out the sculpted arms. If you want to get mass, thickness etc. go on a...

You put on bodyfat by eating a calorie surplus. Creatine will not make you fat under no circumstances at all. Read this forum. There are a lot of good threads popping up every now and then. You'll learn quite soon whom's post to look out for.

Previously I used to bridge significantly like a little Biatch. From all the years in the Weight room training as a football player. Terrible habits lol http://youtu.be/8hgrU0tMA7c Feel free to Criticize.

6 yearsmikew (11493): @hurricane92 nice work. quick thought is that you could make a drastic difference in your appearance with a tan. maybe get a spray tan just for kicks? As for the question about bulking or cutting I don't see any problem with adding some size at this time. Just proceed carefully. Are you taking creatine?

6 yearsJordan (241): Shoulders I stick to mostly the basics dumbbell shoulder press, lots of side lateral raises and front raises, I tend to superset with lateral raises my entire shoulder workout. I also do upright barbell rows. I keep my reps high with shoulders as I feel I can work them out better that way for me. Arms were pretty basic, biceps I did hammer curls, then move to preacher barbell curls and single arm preacher curls then rope curls and hammers again...

7 yearsbrian12 (9495): Way to complicated If you are just starting - then you should NEVER make your own routine. Use something like HST 12; Max OT, or Layne Nortons Power Hyp split. Choose something from the list of routines under the articles section on this website What is you goal? If your goal is to slap on muscle and burn fat.

7 yearsBaiTu (3096): Really, the best way to take better pictures is not to hold the camera in your hands. Ask a girl to take your picture. Show her some examples from this website and then you pose. You can take a good picture if your cell phone is in your hand. Personally, I think pictures where someone is staring into a mirror holding their camera always look horrible.
