My very first cut is going quite well.

shotkong · 03-18-2009, 10:35 AM

first pic I was ~230.. that was in september. Started a not so serious cut then, and started getting serious the past 3 weeks. Here are my results so far, I'm more or less where I want to be. (for this spring/summer anyways) I'm 208 in the after pic. I wish I had taken different angles for the before pics, but I did not :/

Bokito · 03-18-2009, 10:37 AM

wow awesome dude keep it up
nice

WhatDidYouDo · 03-18-2009, 10:45 AM

Great results man you are able to see some abs now keep it up

Viking1983 · 03-18-2009, 10:58 AM

Great job! Keep up the good work, i bet you could really cut down low for the summer and then go on a nice clean bulk afterwards.

shotkong · 03-19-2009, 12:04 PM

I'm not going to be cutting much more than this, maybe like 5 more lbs. The thought of going under 200 is scary to me lol.
thanks guys

will definitely keep it up.

Jester78 · 03-19-2009, 12:19 PM

Great progress there, can start to see them abs poppin through, must be exciting!!

Sebby · 03-19-2009, 12:59 PM

corzzx · 03-19-2009, 01:15 PM

Few months and you'll have a 6 pack

5Times · 03-19-2009, 02:16 PM

meal 4 - usually some kind of legume.. lentils being the most popular
meal 5 - a good size portion of meat and veggies
meal 6 - 2 servings of cottage cheese w/ 1 tbsp of pb and a handful of raisons.
also i drink around 1.5 gallons of water throughout the day.

bigdan · 03-19-2009, 07:03 PM

nice work... your diet looks very intuitive/reasonable. I agree with you in that I wouldn't see much of a reason to get any lower in the bodyfat department you are pretty lean.

Jamie77 · 03-19-2009, 07:23 PM

Looks like you did 2 cuts (Your hair) lol. Nice progress so far keep going

SebastianG · 03-19-2009, 09:14 PM

Dude, im jealous. You think if i follow ur diet, i will cut down the same way?

shotkong · 07-03-2009, 02:06 PM

Thanks for the kind words everyone

Right now doing the 531 routine (http://forum.bodybuilding.com/showth...hp?t=112382761) My lifts have always been geared towards my performance in throwing (powerlifting + agility training / olympic lifting). I graduated last year from my university, so I decided to cut weight since I didn't "need" it anymore. For cardio, during my cut, I did 3x a week interval running, and 1 or 2 days of LISS (walking 40 mins on the beach or something).
