stop cutting. you have visible abs

eat at maintenance IIFYM and your lifts will increase without added BF%

when you stall, change rep ranges (5x5 to 3x5 or 5x3)

keep going until you stall again

bulk until you can only just see abs

again when you stall, change rep ranges (5x5 to 3x5 or 5x3)

keep going again

when you stall, start cutting until your abs are as visible as they are currently

and for the love of fucking god work your delts more

repeat

Interesting fact: Your numbers put you ~10lbs above the FFMI natural limit for someone our height/BF. Typically caps around 170lb (assuming BF held at 10%), which is commonly achieved/plateaued around the four year mark of consistent cumulative lifting and dieting.

So...wrong numbers, genetic anomaly or unsolved mystery? For reference I'm also 5'9 sitting at 164lb, approx same bodyfat (10%ish). Apparently you're 16lbs of pure lean muscle mass heavier than me (and 10 pounds heavier than most men's physique competitors in your height/weight bracket).

I'm down from 200 to 190, I'll see how I look at 175, maybe I'll bulk from there.
Once I can see my abs again I'm gonna start lean bulking. I'm wide hipped as all fuck so I can't wait to get rid of these love handles and get my lats back.

Been waiting for a thread like this so I could hit you with a few questions, an anon in another thread said you'd be doing a split since day 1. True or false? For a skinny fat natty with aspirations to look like you, do I eat to maintenance and lift moderately? Protein blend or whey? Cardio or not?

Any advice appreciated. I'm 2 months in and already having soreness in the left shoulder due to shit form and I'm taking the week off currently and gonna deload and work on form next week.

>an anon in another thread said you'd be doing a split since day 1. True or false?

True, all three years lifting thus far following hypertrophy split routine, majority of which being ABCABCX.

>For a skinny fat natty with aspirations to look like you, do I eat to maintenance and lift moderately?

Diet: I made the mistake of wasting several months cutting from skinnyfat to auschwitz when I should have started either recomping or lean bulking from day one. Like most dyel/normies starting out I assumed abs were synonomous for a good physique. My advice would be *lean* bulk (+300cals over tdee, no more) for the first 6 months before considering any kind of cut.

Routine wise, no, don't do any routine "moderately". Almost every session, especially during newb gains for first 6 months, should result in consistent gains so long as you are actually pushing yourself to near failure, not some "moderate" shit.

>Protein blend or whey? Cardio or not?

At this point you would be getting lost in the minutae if you start worrying about blends vs whey vs casein vs semen etc. Yes there is surely a difference between "optimal" proteins during different times of the day, pre and post workout, etc, but you're talking about veeeeery little difference to a new lifter who's body isn't even used to getting large amounts of protein of any kind. If you insist though, whey (fast digesting) in the morning and after lifting, casein before bed.

Cardio is completely optional and more about heart health. It's calorically counterproductive when lean bulking, seeing as you'll have to eat an even higher surplus to offset the calories you're burning in order to avoid catabolism.

Hope it helps senpai, here's me (top left) at 2 months in, same place you are. Skinnyfat dyel etc. You gonna make it homie.

Bro, you don't have anything to cut. You want to look good for the summer? Develop the body of a man, along with man strength. Doesn't mean get fat, but you want to look powerful-ish, at least....not like some suave twink.

I'd recommend a slight surplus, especially if you're still in the newb phase where you can make glorious gains regularly

>>41054212
Normies only care about abs.
People cut down for summer so they can get mires, then try to bulk again. Sure it's inefficient, but it's understandable.

>>41055544
I'd recommend not worrying too much about fat so you can eat stuff that tastes pretty good. You're not gonna get heart disease from eating a lot of fat long enough to gain weight. Just don't go over 100g per day and eat fiber/fruits/veggies as well.

Hey guys, any advice for how to get more defined muscle as a swimmer? I'm planning to start doing full body calisthenics workout every mon/wed/fri and then maybe a 10km HIIT bike ride on the off days for cardio and legs. So my goal is not huge muscle but just more defined "otter mode".

157lbs

Started lifting about 18 months ago, was about 240lbs before that and I'd never stepped foot in a gym before. Been dieting/cutting pretty much the whole time as I had a lot to lose, finally getting to a point where I'm reasonably happy. Going to get down to 154 then start slowly bulking. Still a bit of fat around my hips that's gotta come off. How'd I do brahs?

How do you guys get such good pictures in your bathroom mirrors? I look so awful in mine, I lose all my gains and my skin looks terrible. Is it just the lightning?

Is this a genetic chest gap or something that I can fix with lifting?

Currently doing 5x5 dumbbell chest press, 3x8 weighted dips, and flyes.

So I lost like 3kg / 6.6lbs in a month. Is this good or bad progress? I hardly did any cardio, mainly lifting and just eating good.

5'11 - been lifting for three months now. 250 to 222 lbs.

I've gone from:

BP 185 to 245 (3 sets of 8)
SQ 205 to 275 (3 sets of 8 - I do this after I run though)
DL 225 to 415 (3 sets of 5)
OHP 95 to 135 (3 sets of 5)

I haven't changed my diet at all.

Will I look ok if I do a cut? Do I have gyno? Are BCAA's a joke or do they actually help? Should I take pre-workout or is that a meme?

I just keep cutting and cutting. 5'4", 145 lbs. Still feel fat.

Cutting would imply there was ever a real bulk. Naw, just a recovering fatty. Started at 240lbs graduating highschool, gained to 250lbs over the course of my time out of highschool. Early last year decided to change it. Now down to 182lbs, happy to prove to myself that I can stick to this stuff. Always had weight troubles and the mind to fix them as a kid but I never stuck with it. Also, tfw first pullup of your life recently

I don't know if this counts as a cut since I never really bulked but went from 250lbs to 182 over the course of early last year to now. Happy to prove to myself that I can stick to it when I want it. Also, that first pullup of your life when you used to think it impossible.

It's because you don't have any muscle dude. You need to do a slow bulk and put on some mass. I mean you're only 145lbs I could OHP you for reps.

Do you get more visible results the lower you go? I've lost about 5kgs (76-71) so far and I don't see that big a difference in my body.
If it keeps at this rate I'm gonna have to lose unreasonable amounts of weight to look good.

>>41059756

Actually made some significant changes incorporating some compounds into the routine. If it proves worthwhile I'll post up the changes. The prior routine was more newb friendly with all muscle groups following the same set/rep schemes (4 movements per group, 4 sets of 8-12 reps per movement). That's been changed up a bit with trying to make consistent strength gains on squats, bb ohp, SDL, and (incline) bench.

>>41053589

Cheers, m8. Would love to hear if it works out.

>>41063784
Damn dude you must be pretty new to /fit/and fitness in general. I'll try being as constructive as possible, you have very little mass so there is absolutely nothing to cut down to. Your body alone speaks volumes about your lifestyle, sedentary, mostly indoors, unused to demanding physical labor and most likely young.

You and the many others like you on /fit/, and even me are naturally disadvantaged because we were not blessed with a strong foundation both in nature and nurture.

The solution isn't easy but it is simple, literally just grind it out in the gym for a couple of years, visible abs aren't all that and even less so in combination without mass or visual proportion, to cut now might provide you with a sense of achievement but I assure you it will be a pyrrhic victory at best once you realize just how far it set you back from the true endgame.

I don't even know if I got baited or not but really guys you should at least bulk/maintain until you reach the 1/2/3/4 standard before considering cutting.

mirin breh, looking thic

routine?

>>41064011
Its a really shitty pic and my front is shitty due to bad fat distibution and gyno.
bulking till 1/2/3/4 is useless if i dont do 2 of them and not neccessary before cutting. If you think you need 1/2/3/4 to be big then you probably started skinnyfat and have issues putting on weight and strength, just like me.
My last bulk in december added 4 pounds of weight over 6 month, and most of it probably fat, and barely any strength.
I dont care about strength and gaining mass takes ages for me, cutting is easy as shit so i use it to look best, as i dont lose much strength in these 2-3 month cutting once a year but look better than a whole year of bulking would make me look.
The reason i want abs is just to have a milestone to reach for, ill probably cut up to 5lbs more and say fuck it then.

Glad it helped anon. Don't get caught up in the belief that your routine has to be maximized for efficiency and perfect in order to make gains. If you do virtually any strength or hypertrophy routine with sufficient volume and progressive overload you WILL make amazing gains so long as you are committed to knocking out every lifting session, not skipping days, not sabotaging yourself with poor/insufficient diet.

I offer up my routine to people who ask for it not because I think it's "the best" way to build a physique, but simply because I know it got results for me. I know there are a million other routines out there I could run to success as well, mine is just tailored to exercises I find enjoyable. Whatever routine you enjoy, that's the one you will actually look forward to and thus stick to and reap the benefits from.

>>41055692
Here's the mentioned routine I ran for the majority of the last 3 years. The only thing that isn't noob friendly about it is the volume. New lifters might fight it hard to not fatigue out before finishing 16 total sets (4 movements 4 sets each) per muscle group. If that's the case, scale down to 3 movements 4 sets each. After a month or two you should be able to add that fourth movement.

I would really appreciate some advice for moving forward at this point, /fit/. Like everyone else and their mother I'd like some more defined abs for this summer season, but I am having a pretty difficult time breaking past my current weight and revealing their true shape. At this point I feel almost aimless and am not even sure if I should remain in this cutting path. Just seems like whatever I do I can't get them to really pop. I've been training my core twice a week for about an hour to an hour and a half each session since last November in an attempt to be ready for summer, but I'm pretty new to this so maybe it just hasn't been enough time? I'm definitely planning on trying to get bigger this fall, but this cut cycle seems somehow harder than the last. Should I not go down as low in weight as my last one due to my increased muscle mass? I'm currently sitting at 164lb and am 5'9". And yes, that is a surgical scar, not an ab line.
