Why do i look like a newb at the gym????

[tony2289]

Ok....I eat well within wat my calorie intake should be, i excercise 5 days a week and cardio on the other two days, i do not eat carbs after 6:00 p.m. so that it does not store in my body as fat, i consume about 200 grams of protein per day and have complex carbs pre and post workout with my protein shakes, and i still cannot seem to lose fat. I max 215 on bench (i know it's a light weight) and 375 on squat, i eat no sweets and only drink water, almost 2 gallons a day. Why do i still look like i don't know what a gym is.

i weigh 175
i'm 20 years old
6 feet tall
and have noticeable fat on my lower abdomen, waist, hip, thighs, and calves

(should i lose even more weigh should i really drop below 170-165 or is der sumethin i could do?)

You have much to learn, young padwan. Start with the stickies.

[knox07]

you look like a forum noob by posting the same thing twice :/

[tony2289]

that's becuz i posted it accidentally the first time.

[belairdfence99]

You are eating too many calories if you want to lose weight, but aren't. Eating carbs after 6 and all that broscience is nonsense. Look at the broscience sticky.

375 on squat? ...wtf that sure isnt atg

lol was about to go there. I'm sure it's not parallel. 375 1/4 squat makes baby jesus cry.

Young OP if you're worried about looking like a newb in the gym ... learn to real squat first.

[tony2289]

no it's not a 1/4 squat, it's a perfect squat in which im completely parallel to the ground, my quads are my strongest muscle along with the rest of my leg, but if it helps i used to way 245

That's just sad man. Please do yourself a favour and read the stickies - especially the "debunking bb myths" and "broscience" ones. You'll start enjoying bodybuilding a whole lot more!

You also say you have noticeable fat all over your middle and lower body; well that pretty much spells cutting for me (being in a caloric deficit). Still, depends on your goals I guess... Would help if you stated those, posted some pictures or let us know what your body fat percentage actually is.

Might post your diet and routine as well; make sure you're getting all the EFAs, fiber and micronutrients.
