TDEE = maintenance calories

not really... it's easy to eat 1700 and save 1000 for a special occasion on the same day

this is pretty much what i meant in the starting post's second paragraph, but wanted to be absolutely sure...

well, sometimes near midnight i still have 700 calories left but already feel satisfied after 500, then eat the remaining 200 calories the next morning (when i'm actually hungry) as a slightly bigger...

count your calories. you can start at something sensible like 2500, weigh yourself every morning for two weeks and see what happens to your weight. adjust your calories based on that - so if you're...

Do you ever bank your calories on a bulk, just like some people do when they're cutting? By banking I mean saving some amount of calories over the course of a few days, then eating the saved amount...

not saying rep power matters, but how does he have under 200 posts and over 4k reps? shouldn't that indicate quality posts?

probably cut for a bit based on the stats, but we need pics for a better evaluation

- music
- morning coffee
- hyped for upper body sesh later tonight

quark and skyr are very good for cutting. i don't know if you guys have this "isey skyr" in the NL, but the volume and flavor (especially caramel + lemon cheesecake) are godlike for only 100 calories...

how are you going to lose fat anyway when you're that close to being underweight? you need to gain some muscle first

besides, your body fat percentage goes down if you can build some muscle on...

some kind of novice program while eating at maintenance i'd say

fierce 5 novice is a good one

just about anything imo

oatmeal, banana, eggs, milk

no point in macro splits (exact percentages) since they just overcomplicate things. make sure you're counting your calories correctly

you should cut for a bit more than two weeks imo

500-1000 surplus is way too big, aim for 250 or something. also you should still try to get like 120+ grams of protein if possible

the exercise routine itself won't make you lose weight, a caloric deficit does. you can try eating like 2700 calories for two weeks while weighing yourself every morning, see what happens to your...

OP didn't mention calories once, so i wouldn't be so sure

also it's "calisthenics" with one L ;)

1000 is probably reserved for overweight people and people who only care about the scale number, i can't imagine any normal weight lifter would do that if they were trying to retain muscle

rule number 1: never, and i mean never, say you want to lose weight (or gain muscle) fast

i'd understand eating something like 1500 calories even though it's very low too, but literally 400...

caloric deficit combined with a program like Fierce 5 Novice if you're a beginner

you need to build muscle first, but your abs won't show before you cut back down
