# Cutting problems

[gymjunki3]

Honestly, I think my dick is a little less sensitive now, but I don't have to peel back the foreskin in the shower anymore, so I guess its easier to clean myself. The ladies actually seem to like the cut look, so overall I'm pretty happy with it.

so glad im a helmet.

IMO if you cut carbs on rest days and put them on lifting days it makes for a very satisfying post lift carb face-stuff

just saiyan

I may try this! Thanks!

i've always preferred higher CHO's on rest days, makes little sense to me to have them higher after you need them. i realise it's glycogen replenishment but still more of a mental thing i guess

I follow the same logic in terms of total intake
Eat most on my rest day prior to two Power WOs

Since July 7th I've remained the same weight or half a pound less on a daily basis. Despite getting noticeable leaner and measurements slowly going down, I remain the same weight thanks to water. Over 6 weeks have gone by and the scale has not budged once. I'm tried everything from overloading on potassium and sodium, dry starchy carbs and low water, to not drinking water at all. Measurements over scale weight, but it's becoming mental anguish slowly. I was at this weight running 2,500 daily, remained this weigh for 2 weeks running 2,200, remained the same for another 2 weeks at 2,000 daily with some days dipping low as 1,600. Even had 2 separate refeeds. Taking food weight out of gut transit, I'm shown my true weight. Life sucks. It's taken me into a depressive, pissy mood. I've been sulking for weeks and will for more to come, I'm sure. Took some advice from others and bought Yohimbine today and going to try 10 g of creatine a day. I don't know what I'll do if this doesn't work out.

have you tried long term fasting? i hear it's a great way to shed a few pounds





but no srs, that's quite peculiar. maybe try upping to something like 3k? also have you considered cardio?

You don't get to choose where you lose fat. It just comes off where it wants to. Dems the breaks.

Personally I eat all my rest day CHO before I sleep since I only sleep for ~6 hours and train first thing in the morning.

Me too. Up at 4:30 train at 5am. All carbs consumed between 6-9pm. Sleep good and great energy even with 6 hours of sleep, although I do try to shoot for at least 7 hours of sleep.

Anyone ever try cardio in high Heels? wait.......

this but about 3 hours later for each (9-1), (7:30-8:15) during the week and on weekend nights 10-2:30am/ whenever I roll out of bed I train

3K for how long? I guess I could be underestimating my TDEE, I don't have a Body Bugg and I doubt it'll be a good idea. It can't be that high. 95% of my day is spent sitting at a desk. I'm already too anal about my body. I've been doing 10 minute pre-workout and 10 minutes post-workout cardio on the elliptical, averaging about 120 calories. 240 (Cardio) + 200 (Conservative estimate for lifting) + 75 (Walking to and from the gym), places me in a 1,000 deficit daily if I'm eating 2,000 calories. My arm, forearm, thigh size has gone down since I measures last. But I remain the same weight. It's a trip, to be frank with you. I stopped posting here because I'm injured, depressed and busting ass for my lower body, yet not seeing any chance on the scale. I'm going to try drinking 2-3 gallons of water a day today and the rest of the weekend. Because at this point, I don't know why I bother working out when only my arms and legs are leaning out and my midsection is getting softer yet smaller as the days go by. It's really depressing.

i know that feel unfortunately. but instead of focusing on what you're unhappy with and what isn't working, focus on your strengths and the improvements you are seeing. it doesn't sound like much but it can make an absolute world of difference, seriously. perception is everything.

as for your TDEE estimations, in the end all your numbers mean absolutely nothing if as you stated the scale isn't moving. it isn't impossible to believe you're under eating. individual thyroid production can vary TDEE within a degree. but then again you say you are getting leaner so therefore you are losing weight so i'm not even sure if there is a problem? How often do you weigh yourself? You could simply be seeing a skewed view of weight fluctuations which can be caused by sodium/potassium balance, stress, etc..
