I apologize in advance for making this thread, I am just really desperate and at a crossroads...
>29 yom
>5'8"
>165lbs->125lbs (6 month cut; s-sorry for skelly)
>lifts went down from 0.75/1.5/2/2.5 now 0.5/1/1.5/2 (s-sorry for weak piece of shit)
>planned to cut to 10-12% bf then slow/lean bulk after until at least 1/2/3/4
I am worried I am not at 10-12% body fat, but feel as though cutting any lower is unhealthy.
Also, sorry for manlet, and sorry for pajeet (I know I won't ever make it, but I just want to make the best of what I have...)
So my questions are:
1. Body fat estimate?
2. Should I stop the cut/start slow (almost maintenance: lean) bulk?
Thanks for your patience!

What do you recommend son?
>>36270334
>I'm 165 pounds
>better cut
Hahaha you delusional skeleton. Do you have a pro-ana Tumblr?
>>36270342
well how long did you bulk. Because it looks like you lost everything. Maybe you cut to early or cut to much
>>36270542
>>36270567
I definitely think I cut too much. Main reason I'm thinking about switching gears.
I only bulked for 3 months with a 500kcal surplus at 40/30/30.
So you think I should start a lean bulk also or be more aggressive with my bulk?
>>36270495
So he should just become beta cuck and let people walk all over him?
>>36270518
Not apologizing for things you were born with that are out of your control
Honestly these replies are from people who take fit memes too seriously, get out more.
>>36270630
I am probably overdoing it with the humility. I guess it is a fine line.
>>36270609
You cut too early. Stop saying you need to "lean bulk" or be" aggressive" with your bulk. You sound like you dont even want it or barely lift. Bulk for about 8-12months with a 500kcal surplus and be patient. Sleep 7+ hrs and check your diet consistently and buy a food scale Ill repeat that again buy a food scale. Youre delusional if you think a 3 month bulk is worth it let alone going for a 6 month cut.
>>36270334
1. 11%
2. stop cutting hungry skellington
>>36270342
>>36270334
1. 12-13%
2. EAT BIG LIFT BIG C'MON
Go to 15% body fat before cutting again
>>36270685
Okay, will do.
- Bulk for 12 months at a 500kcal surplus
- I have food scale I use like an autistic monk
- lift big. Hoping to get to 1/2/3/4 within the next year
Seem reasonable friendo?
>>36270334
You look like that pic of the sub 10% BF with no muscle
interesting
>>36270756
Yeah but I recommend 8 months bulk and then see where you are then if you want then go for the 12months.
Pick a strength program and stick to it. Get you 1g per 1lb bw of protein. Generally eat whole food (milk,meat,nuts,yogurt, etc.). The only real gains goblin is yourself. And squat ATG
>>36270334
THANK YOU HUNGRY SKELETON
>>36270813
Cool, 8 mos then. I am at 150gm protons per day for the past year. I did SL then tried PPL, but went back to SL
I don't squat ATG, but I'll try it. You really think it makes that much of a difference?
Shameless self bump
>>36270334
Do you lift weights ? Honest question. Do you go to a gym or just do cardio/work out at home? I'm shocked at seeing somebody that works out and is 125 lbs. I mean you aren't really at a crossroads cause all you need to do is eat clean, and get over 150g of protein and lift weights. Which is fucking easy since I have to eat 210g of protein a day to maintain what I have at 6'4 210.
