ITT: Constructive Criticism

You could afford to cut another 400 out of that. I'd start with the nut butter.

>Breakfast: Nothing
>Lunch: Nothing
>Dinner: Coffee with cream, 2 cups of fresh homemade salsa and a bag of pork rinds. 5 servings of cauliflower

I screwed up because I woke up at noon and my buddy wanted to go to the gym, I went and hung out at his place for a few hours and when I got home it was 6pm.

Today (which is my birthday):
I had some beef brisket with two slices of buttered french stick
A banana
A free Boost Juice bc its my birthday
A pretty heavt 90 minute workout because I figured if I'm going to be in a caloric surplus for the first time in a month it might as well not go to waste. Heavy squats, deads, ohp, some core isolation work and weighted pull ups. On and I did some front squats and cleans while warming up.
A free subway six inch sub + bottle of water
And I'm going to eat a shitload of italian food in a few hours. Considering getting some mcdonalds atm
My goal has changed from strength to aesthetics in the past couple months, so I'm meant to be cutting rn. Believe it or not it's going well.

I disagree, my daily expenditure is ~2400cal so I'm running a 500cal deficit at 1900. What are come good reasons for cutting past the 500cal deficit if I'm also going to be doing weight training? I also attend spin classes twice a week 45 minutes and swim laps for 30 minutes two nights a week.

You weigh 280lbs, I guess if you value your lift numbers over your scale number then by all means. If I were you, I'd focus on getting your weight down as quickly as you safely can and a little less food wouldn't kill you or impact the amount of exercise you can do, just the amount of weight you can lift.

>1 celery
one celery what? Stalk? Stick? You don't call it "one celery" you call it "one celery stalk"
If you ate a part of a stalk, it's a celery stick.

Oh okay, so sets and reps do not change? I still try to fail every set in terms of weight, gradually going down as needed to finish my reps. Is that still okay despite the caloric deficit?

Sorry 1 stalk

You should focus on moving more and losing weight, the amount of weight you're pushing and pulling isn't all that important in the grand scheme as long as you're doing the exercise.

You can start to worry about the amount you're lifting when you start to get closer.

t. one ex-fatty with a hot subjective opinion

Is the routine okay otherwise? I've read compound exercises to be good for fat burning.

>>40743863
It happens. Could've been worse honestly.

Better to eat too little on a bad day than too much.

Kudos for getting in your workout too anon. My birthday is next week and so far this is my plan
>make banana pancakes
(Like literally it's bananas, maybe an egg and you cook it like a pancake. i haven't tried it but i've been wanting to since it's no added sugar and i usually have a banana in the morning anyway) .
>A cupcake from the local shop
I don't want a cake sitting around in my fridge or to be tempted to eat more than a slice because "it's mah birthday!" or "it'll go to waste" so a cupcake will be perfect. I'll probably eat some when I buy it (they're kinda big-ish) and have the other half to end the day on
>italian restaurant
So i'll probably get chicken francese or something on the healthier end of italian cuisine, depends on what this place has since my friend picked it out.

And since the cupcake and the dinner will be pretty dense I'll probably just have a salad for lunch or even just a shake and do my cardio routine before we get ready for dinner.

I can't wait for that cupcake lmfao it's been two months without sweets.
