Losing muscle mass & strength....even the smallest loss pisses me off :/

I range from low 200's at 10% - high 200's at 13%ish.

There is a HUGE definition difference in that 3 small percent.

The "rule of holes man".....when you are in one, stop digging.

Next.......stop whining.

^^^^^^This......For gawds sakes start eating more, lift, eat, rest, repeat. You are caught up in the weeds worrying about bodyfat when you should be trying to add mass big time.

.....and still chippin' away. GJDM!

^^^^This....it really is that simple.

Shoot for losing 1 lb to 1.5 lbs per week.

Your are fairly lean in those pictures....probably 13% - 14%.

Use it or lose it.....period.

Good read! The 4th year brick wall sux :/

I just finished a cut with zero cardio to compare it to previous cuts with cardio.

The results were the same amount of fat loss in the same period of time with perhaps a little less muscle loss. ...

Light ab work three times per week.

6 sets at 15 reps
I choose 2 of the following 3 exercises in a given workout.


(3 sets ab machine)
(3 sets leg lifts)
(3 sets weighted/inverted crunches)

Just finishing up a cut to 10% bodyfat & now I will face temptation. Seventeen days in the Caribbean with all food & alcohol prepaid & at my disposal :0

Last time I went I gained 7 pounds....this...

I hope it holds out as well. One of the best motivators for me to stay lean during the fall/winter months is to go on a beach vacation in the Caribbean between Nov - Feb.
