Cool, I like the idea of eating at maintenance and making gains without adding fat. I'm pretty sure I've heard this from a few other people. How long do you think my bulk cycle should be?
Before I started my bulk two weeks ago I was on a cut for two months and seemed to lose a lot of fat. I still seem to have a bit of a stomach and love handles. For how lanky my body is, would it be a...
Thanks for all the replies. I was originally on a cut for two months which helped a lot with losing body fat, but with more research and talking to a couple of personal trainers I've been on a bulk...
Yeah I thought maybe 15%. I don't think 17% though, especially for being 6' foot and 166 lbs. It's hard to say, because of the 12% professional measurement they gave me.
I went to the gym about two weeks ago to measure my body fat percentage and the results came out as 12%. I feel like I look a bit higher than 12%. What do you guys think? I don't know how to post...
To get my 50% of protein, I'm eating a lot of fish and a couple of scoops of whey isolate. For my carbs I'll have oatmeal for breakfast, and eat broccoli with two of my meals. My fats usually come...
Once again thanks for all of the feedback everyone! A few days ago I went to the gym and got measured for my body fat % and they said I'm sitting at 12%. Only 2% away from my goal!
I've been doing 50%, 30%, 20% (protein, carbs, fats) for about a month or so now and have managed to lose 16 lbs. Not too sure how much of that was body fat, but I seemed to maintain muscle. If you...
Thanks! I ended up buying the 5 Lbs Chocolate PB. You're right, I may have to reduce the amount of scoops I use, cause I can imagine it will get expensive
Wow thanks a lot for all the great responses. It really means a lot to me. I'm glad that I could help motivate a lot of you, as you have all motivated me even more to keep going through with this!
I'm currently using some cheaper stuff from Wal-Mart. I wanted to try something new of better quality. Any suggestions for a cheaper alternative to IsoFlex?
Trust me I eat eggs and chicken quite a bit! But I still can't seem to meet my daily protein intake without an isolate. Maybe I can just take two scoops and try to get some more protein rich foods in...
I just finished Accutane back in May 2012. Definitely some powerful stuff. If I were you, I would continue to JUST take the basics. Accutane is already harsh enough on your liver as it is, no need to...
I used CLA supplements. It's not necessarily a fat burner, but it does help reduce body fat. I lost quite a bit of fat over the month I used it, but that could also have been/most likely have been...
