    I had one refeed day. As for cheat meals/days, I always try to be within like 5 grams of my macro goals. Went out drinking once, only had 2 beers, but still came out within 15g of my carb limit.

    I suppose. Just getting an initial calculation of TDEE online to work from, at my stats and working out 5-6 times a week (underestimating activity level) it says maintenance is like 2700-3100, so...
  • Yeah this is true. Just want some external...

    Yeah this is true. Just want some external opinions on if it was just finding out my actual TDEE or if my metabolism was jet lagged or something.

    I'll try some things and just monitor over the...

    I suppose I could lower it a bit. Last time I would lower it any my weight would stay stagnant, to the point where I'd have to lower it to like 1500..

    So I was trying to stay close to my...

    By roughly I mean it ranges from 2100-2250 depending on how my energy levels are, but don't go over the 2250 mark.
    I aim for 1g/lb of lean mass for protein, 60g of fat, rest carbs.

    I suppose I should have prefaced with I was already on a pretty big deficit for like a year before this due to work, just not as accurately tracked. Eating this much now is more than what I was...
  • Weight Gain On Deficit, Stick With Deficit Or Recalculate?

    I recently started a spreadsheet log since I'm back to tracking my nutrition more intently, and from April 15th to now my weight has gone up, on average, from 181/182 to 188/189.

    I'm a male, 24,...

    Like I've stated before, I would weigh out everything.

    Weighing chicken: put plate on scale, zero out, add chicken = boom.

    I'll just keep going down until I start seeing steady weight loss or I start seeing medical issues.

    Wanted to bump this because I am still at 177-179 lbs., eating about 1700-1800 calories a day, and have been picking up biking 30-45 minutes every few days.

    Still think that I'm miscalculating my...

    I weigh all of my food, so miscounting isn't the issue. Inability to cope with hunger/energy isn't an issue for me.

    I assume it's just because my RMR isn't actually what it's calculated to be, and...

    How low would I be able to go, realistically, without worrying about damaging my metabolism? I still have about 15-20 lbs. I want to go down.

    I only ask because the last time I brought this up,...

    I've been stuck at 178-180 lbs. since August. My TDEE is calculated around 2400 calories, and I've bounced around between 1750 calories and 1950 calories, with no luck at all.

    Starting to think I...

    If it's correlation, then fine. What I meant was I'm not looking to just do progressive percentage based lifts, to increase my overall strength as a primary focus.
  • Intermediate Hypertrophy/Aesthetics Program?

    Looking for an intermediate routine for hypertrophy/aesthetics focus, I don't really care for raw strength.

    Not necessarily, just checking if there are any advocates of once per week, or twice per week training for people who have been training for 2-3 years. There are a lot of things for beginners and...

    Intermediate Training Frequency

    Muscle groups once or twice a week? Or does it not matter all that much?

    What sort of surplus would you guys recommend for the lean bulk? 200?

    Any estimates on what body fat % I'm sitting at?
  • Deciding between continuing to cut or resume bulking

    I do think that I would like to lose a bit more fat before I continued trying to put on weight, but I also think that if I lose any more weight I'll just be skinny and too small.
    I don't know what...
