At least you're losing weight.
>>40465733
you're not supposed to count any calories burned while lifting weights
>>40465733
>Not calculating TDEE at sedentary and THEN subtracting
You don't count exercise calories. You're not supposed to go off your BMR. Do your TDEE and then subtract the 600 calories.
Anyway unless you're female or a manlet you shouldn't be eating below 1500.
How the fuck are people so inactive as to need to eat less than 2000kcal to cut?
>>40468732
manlets.
>>40468732
I workout 5x a week but still eating at 1500-1700 calories a day so I can lose 1-2lbs a week.
>>40468754
So your TDEE is 2500kcal?
wtf. How much do you weigh?
>>40468771
Not OP
230lbs at 5'11. Down from 310lbs.
I've been eating below 2000 calories since I started.
>>40468732
This, I'm cutting at 2500 and that's -700 a day.
>>40468781
Thats fine when you're obese/overweight.
Your TDEE will be way over 2500kcal now though unless you literally do no physical activity.
>>40468810
I only lift 4 times a week and do conditioning once a week.
I calculate at sedentary regardless. Office job and I don't do any other physical activity aside from gym days.
Till I get to my goal weight there is no reason to do otherwise.
>>40468732
WHEN WILL THEY LEARN?
OP here I'm 5'8" and 207 lbs, down from 296
I'm a college student so I don't really do any physical activity out side of the days I lift
So yeah commence the manlet comments
>>40468896
Hahahaha, are you atleast non-white?
It's okay to be a manlet if you aren't masterrace, we understand the genetics.
