No one checked the math?

That's 2,441 calories per day, not 2,359. Not a big deal but an extra 100 calories a day adds up if you aren't tracking properly.

You can also cut on high carbs with...

If you can't train for the strength and power, then train for the pump. I'm on a 4 day upper/lower split now with 2 "Pump" days and 2 "strength" days, and my elbows feel better than ever. The...

Haha, thanks for the comment but I'm married so a tan is just superficial :) Yeah I think I'm going to have to bulk for my sanity, I'm starting to feel like a skeleton. There's always next year for...

Exactly. Of course you are going to lose reps when your muscles don't have any glycogen due to low carb dieting! You should be measuring your 1RM as a true measure of your strength lost, losing...

So I dropped 20 pounds from the end of my last bulk Feb 7th until May 1st, about 12 weeks. 194 to 174, strength down slightly but not too bad. Best I did on bench was 285 @ 194 and I got 265 @ 174...

Meh, I'm a big fan of carb cycling.... when you get far along in a cut. At first you don't need it, but as you near the end of a cut there's really only one place left to cut calories after setting...

I weigh 3 times a week at the gym, Monday, Wednesday and Friday. Always at the same time, beginning of workout after a piss.

New shoes wouldn't hurt, foam rolling is good, and do you play with a brace? I've had three knee right knee injuries in my life and mine will never be the same. Yet I still play basketball twice a...

I function best in the 7-8 hour range as well.

When I first start a cut, my carb intake is generally moderate. By the time I'm ending it though, carb intake is usually low since that's the main way to cut your remaining calories. Most people...

I actually avoid fruit almost entirely on my cut, only because I cut on low carb and it doesn't fit my macros. When I have a carb up day though, bananas are my best friend :)

Nothing compares to the EC Stack. This is my first year cutting without it though and I'm doing fine. But for first time cutters, EC stack really makes dealing with hunger easy.

Sweet potatoes are a must if you want a low sodium, high fiber, unprocessed carb source.

But there's a million other choices out there if you expand your requirements.

I eat 3 to 4 100 calorie servings of Almonds a day. Just a preference though, Walnuts or Almonds isn't going to make or break your physique.

Also, in your original post, you got 4 TBSP PB at 190 calories. Pretty sure one serving of PB (2 TBSP) is about 190 calories by itself, so there's a typo somewhere in there.

I start my morning...

CURLS IN THE SQUAT RACK!!!!!

On Saturday, I got stuck waiting for a guy to finish his curls. I asked him how many sets he had left (1), and he said, "Why, do you want to work in with me on these...

You'll be fine, but I have problem keeping fats below 40g on a refeed day, let alone 13g! Lyle McDonald adovcates refeed days below 20g fat in his Ultimate Diet 2.0 book as well.

Great progress man, but yes you always have to lose more weight than you thought. I was 194 on Feb 7th at the end of my bulk, and I'm down to 176 right now. I thought I'd only have to cut to 180...

I'm actually doing a workout based around the UD 2.0 concepts and his depletion suggestions are crazy. I always thought you kept volume low on a cut, yet his depletion workouts are recommending...

I love Pizza but I haven't had any in several weeks on my cut. I usually just get it once a week on a bulk though. Like someone else mentioned, it just doesn't fit my macros very well. If I'm...
