I will use this platform to record my progress during the followings months. I'm 31 years old , height 5' 8'' and i am planning to start today the Kelei's workout on a cut.
I began training 8 months ago with a weight of 174 lbs and 25,5% bf. In four months i got to 146 lbs and 17% bf but i got way too skinny. i think it was because i drop the weight too fast. So i decided to do a minibulk for 4 months. the firt month i eat at maintenance and then i aim to gain 1lb per week for 3 months. I use the shortcut to size program and i really gain some strenght but in my opinion i got too fat.
Right now i am 161 lbs and 18 to 20% bf. I really like the Kelei's workout, because of all the people that help each others, and especially because of Kelei's is willing to help us and share his knowledge with everyone.
I plan to do the four day split using the following sequence:
Monday: D3
Tuesday: D1+D2
Thursday: D3
Friday: D1+D2
I don't have much problem following diets. i don't drink and i don't smoke. I learn how to calculate my macros on this site using the post of Lemma Leigh or something like that.
The next two weeks i will eat at maintenance which is aproximately 2600 kcals. My macros are:
P:156 g
F: 72 g
C: 312
You can see photos of my monthly progress on my bodyspace. I dont think i can upload pictures here because i don't have 50 posts.
And lastly, my main motivation was to get back at my ex gf because we split after five years together (how childish is that). The first months were the best and my motivation was sky high, then i began to forget about her but going to the gym and dieting almost became a hobby of mine so can't let go now. I am like addicted to this thing now.
My goal is to get to 148 lbs and 12% in the next four months.
Today i start this program.

Nutrition was on point yesterday. I take glutamine, protein shakes, bcaa and fish oil.The moments of my life in which I've grown had to do with failures; the moments of my life when I've gotten worse, had to do with success. Success is deforming, relax, deceives, makes us worse, we fall in love too much of ourselves; failure is the opposite, it's formative, makes us strong, brings us closer to our convictions, make us consistent.

Subbed! I'm also doing Kelei's routine, but cutting because I have some fat to lose. Keep it up!
ps I know the feeling of not being able to share equipment. They ask how when I'll be done, and I say,"I don't know...5 more sets of 3?"From unappealing to slightly less unappealing - A QUEST!
