Alright /fit/,
I've been seriously bulking for about 2 months now, been lifting around 8. Id say i'm anywhere from 15-20% bf. when should I start cutting to have visible abs for spring break?
>pic related
Spring break is in april btw
i think im in the same spot as you more or less. Im gunna try decreasing carbs and see if thats enough to reduce my BF%. Hopefully works cuz im not looking forward to actually nerding out over macros and shit to stay lean.
you should probably give your height weight and lifts too I think

Op here carbs dont matter unless you plan on doing keto diet, otherwise you'll jus exhaust yourself for no reqson
t. Tried a pseudo keto diet befor bulk and all it did was make me weaker

maybe you did it wrong, it seems all the research and shit suggests a low carb diet will burn fat no matter what. you have to make sure to get enough protein and fat. I can definitely see it making me weaker since im more hungry but if I eat enough protein and fat then I wont be right?

theres a transition period where your body still expects more carbs. Expect to feel hungry all the time. After a week or two you'll start getting back to normal.
You're eating at a deficit if you're trying to cut, so yes, you will probably get weaker unless you're keeping careful track or you're at a high body fat percentage.

thats pretty good man Id say youre ready for a little cut if youre lifting that much. im 5'11-'6'0 and 155 but look like i have about the same bf%. cant tell if youre flexing your abs though if you are you have more fat than me so probably should minicut for a bit.

how much weaker though? thats pretty much the only thing keeping me from committing to a real cut right now because im not satisfied with my lifts yet :/
>Id say i'm anywhere from 15-20% bf
You're closer to 25% BF, I think. You could MAYBE get visible abs for spring break if you go on a 700 cal deficit and are strict about eating lots of protein. Don't fall into the trap of going on a severe cut. That will just cause you to lose muscle.

>25% bf
Bullshit. I was measured at 27% bodyfat when I first started lifting and looked 10x worse than him. No way he's over 20%, especially since it looks like he's got some muscle.

You know fuck all about bf estimation
Anybody have a serious answer for the original question?
I guess I shouldn't have come here for an actual finess question lel
>>39577489
told you you're in between 15%-20% bodyfat
but you're right,nobody should come here for fitness advice.
All I've learned here was how to shitpost,I guess that's what happens to newfags

Cry more bitch nigga.
15% bodyfat means you're just 5lbs away from hard, prominent abs, veins and striations all over your body.
But that's ok, everyone's a little delusional, just like how you overestimate your height as well.
