Becoming An Animal: Arub's Lifting/Diet Log

[Arubenstein]

Been a heavy poster in the SCC for over a year and figured it was time to start a log. The goal is to get shredded while retaining as much strength/size as possible. Started out my 'journey' Dec 2012 at 236lbs fat as fuk. Currently down to 171 as of Jan 1st 2014. Retained all of my strength so far (all PR's in sig were set at ~220 lbs bodyweight).

Cutting Macros are currently set at:
2200cal
220c
60f
190p

Running 5/3/1 for my main lifts but with my own spin on it for everything else:
Mon - Chest/shoulders
Tues - Legs/back
Wed - off
Thurs - Shoulders/chest
Fri - Back/legs

Who needs veggies when you got OT?

notsrs I usually have some zucchini but i ran out

[Gibb1991]

I stalked your MFP and I noticed the diet. Gonna be good when you're all done cutting and can try some unclean food.

Tfw when I've been bulking hard for 8ish weeks and now have to get used to not having a half liter of ice cream every night

to be honest man, ill probably still keep it really clean during my bulk. Its not a hassle to eat these foods, i actually enjoy em the only things that'll change is there will be alot more peanut butter, beef, and rice haha

mirin your ice cream intake tho lol

Always consistent with the diet, Arub! I still eat all of the same foods, too, just more of them. I love "clean" foods and to be honest, I'd rather have proats than a pop tart in the morning lol.
