Were my expectations too high?
Hello all,
Today marks 6 months of working out after a tough breakup/leaving college. I have a before and after pic in my body space. I felt like progress happened really quickly early on but has slowed down. Honestly I can't even tell if I've put on muscle or just lost fat. My lifts have all increased a lot, but I'm not sure if that's just strength. Any tips for putting on muscle? Losing fat is easy for me but not gaining lean muscle.
Thanks for the support!
5'8
Weight before 176
Weight after 153
Lifts before: Bench 115 Deadlift 165 Squat 165 OHP 70
Lifts after: Bench 215 Deadlift 275 Squat 225 OHP 115
I guess I just expected more to happen in 6 months with all the work I've put in on my diet/workouts. But maybe I set my expectations too high.
