I know it doesn't seem real low, but I'm certainly feeling the lack of calories...
Just cut 10g of fat off my prep macros.
Yesterday's cals- 2825.4cals
I'm hoping to end prep above 2350/2400cals daily. I can't even imagine trying to lift and do cardio 4-5 days a week on 2,000 or under."The code of Bushido is harsh and relentless."

1800. That was lower than I would have liked due to being behind schedule. If u take care in the offseason to gradually up your calories, u should be able to get your maintenance level fairly high so that u don't have to go so low calorie when it comes time for prep.

It was MISS\LISS so sometimes I'd walk on an incline and if it was miss, cross trainer. Towards the end I was that exhausted to even walk that it'd take me 2 hours to burn just 700 calories as opposed ton 40 minutes in the middle of prep.Originally Posted by JOSEF RAKICH

1700-1900 no cardio. Not so bad if you can get in a nap during the day. 2400-2500 If I was doing cardio.
