So close to abs... Keep cutting?

[mind4muscle7]

Thought it was cals in vs cals out

no, sugar is not the same as protein, not all calories are made the same

[BronyBrah]

no, sugar is not the same as protein, not all calories are made the same

wow ur fawkin retarded, calorie is just a unit of heat measurement, so 1cal=1cal

and the exothermic reaction associated with protein and sugar (carbs) are equivalent, being 4 calories per each gram.

[JordanCABJ]

and yeah bro if u wanna lower calories up the protien it will help converse muscle

Won't go below 1750

[BronyBrah]

and as for OP, this is very common for former obese people. they will get loose skin and it will go back to normal size eventually, but i hear it takes a long time depending on severity of obesity.

my advice:

-cut until you cant lose anymore weight at 1800 cals
-incorporate HIIT in ur cut
-slowly raise calories and lean bulk, making sure you dont pack on alotta weight, use mirror as guide
-tan to reduce the excess skin problem
-work out obliques,lowerback,upperthigh,abs to stretch the excess skin

[mikey78910]

how tall are you? look about 10-11%, i'd start bulking to 180 now

When you say HIIT cardio.... The calories I burn, would I eat them or just let it further my deficit?

further, only do this when reaching plateau

[JordanCABJ]

further, only do this when reaching plateau

It would be the same as eatting 1800 cals and burning 200.. = 1600
As just eating 1600 cals right?
And ok

yes but HIIT has other benefits that are better then opposed to just calorie reducing. and going that low will cause future problems. jumping from 1800 to 2000 wont be a prob, but 1600 to 2000 will add much more fat due to your metabolism shifting and adjusting to lower states of caloric intake

The key to calorie reducing is to lose weight at the highest caloric intake possible.

nikkas these days cutting at 1000cals and losing weight successfully, but bouncing back from that will fk em over.

i finished my cut at 1200cals and 157lbs... 4months later i was clicking 3000cals at 220lbs

bulk not even once

[Del1nquent]

Keep cutting bro get dem abs u want, chill with them for awhile then start bulk. What I'll be doing anyways

[muffiinmatt]

Exactly what I'm aiming for. Bf estimate? And 2-3 is a good estimate to having a decently lean stomach?

Maybe it's just me but I don't see anything wrong (fatness)

[Hiokbrah]

I'd cut till summer and just be shredded if I was you. That's what I'm currently doing, think about being shredded and being able to bulk through out summer.......perfect.

Once I get the abs showing completely my bulk would start... I wanna be as lean as possible while bulking

[Coneilly]

Don't lose heart mate. Will be tracking your progress, good luck

Also, were you slightly chubby as a kid? I was and had the same problem. Now trying to bulk up so that I can afford to have a higher body fat to show the abs

Ive got the same mentality. Ive never had a "six pack" before and this is the closest Ive ever been. I know dis feel.

It sucks but good luck to you bro

Lower back and side ab is driving me insane.. Should it be getting softer and more "jiggly" if I'm cutting?

Huh? When your cutting you wanna get dry, correct me if am wrong.

I'm currently on creatine5g a day... How do I drop this water that the article claims my fat cells are holding?

lower carb + cardio

[JordanCABJ]

Just took these pictures 2
Minutes ago..been taking creatine and 1800 cals.

[JordanCABJ]

lower carb + cardio

Thought carbs didn't matter, but how many grams of carbs would you suggest?

[Rabie72]

Carbs in morning (upon wakeup) around 50g, and after workout around 50g. That's what I do when I cut.
