I was a (super amateur) athlete in high school that got lazy in college following a car accident that messed up my shoulder. Though it was bad and I still attend therapy for my right scapula and neck, I've recognized that I was mostly using it as an excuse to be a lazy fatass. After graduating, I realized that I did not want my future to continue to be full of fast food and terrible fitting clothing. I've worked to track my eating habits and to exercise, although it was only the in the past eight weeks or so that I really started lifting and eating clean consistently. Since then I've gone from 170lb to 152lb.
I've been following a PPL routine with a day off of rest in-between (give or take a day if I was feeling worn out) with a focus on form over higher weight. My diet (since actually dieting) has consisted of carb cycling with a re-feed every fourth day, or timed to coincide with deadlifting or squatting depending on my goal for the week with 500kcal under maintenance. I've fairly consistently moved up in weight over the past few weeks in my main lifts from:
30x5x3 to 45x5x3 (maxed 50x3x1) for DB bench
100x5x5 to 140x6x4 (maxed 165x3x1) ATG squat and
145x5x1 to 215x5x1 (maxed 235x3x1) DL
At this point I'm fairly sure I will continue to cut, although I would really like to hear if anyone disagrees. Thank you for the help.
