>>42357610
Then how'd you cut and not lose on muscle?

>>42357744
...lifting weights burns calories. Faster than running I may add.

Its only been 7 months I'm not surprised

>>42357766
No it doesnt you retarded autist. If you were to run for 2 hours, youd burn thousands of calories.

>>42357392
cut you fat fuck. you'll even get gains at the same time since you're a dyel and noobgains is a thing

>>42357610
How long did this take you young blood?

>>42357392
300 cal def. and lift. Eat fucking right and lift. Shit takes time and consistency you won't like like zyzz in 6 months but keep at it and don't skip legs you fucking dweeb.

>>42358097
7 months almost 8

"While the weight training session may not burn as many calories minute per minute during the actual workout (although that too can depend on how intense the weight lifting is), the overall calorie burning benefits you receive from it typically outweigh that of cardio"

how about you actually read a University textbook on Excersize Science before throwing around accusations of being a "retarded autist" becoz carduo is how u los weght bro. Fucking weak cunt confirmed.

>>42357392
bulk broooo its too late to cut...start putting on size for next years epic cut!

>>42358163
No it doesn't u retard Jesus Christ atleas t link a source

>>42358081
especially if you do a 'strength' based program like how I have. Heavy weight, literally increasing the weight lifted EVERY day you go to the gym (get on the right program stop doing bro splits n shit) going heavy for low reps you will burn more cals than running. Seriously this is Excersize Science 101 ffs.

>>42358176
Okay
>Anatomy of Movement: Exercises
>Science and Practice of Strength Training
>Strength Training Anatomy Workout

Do some real reading scrub try and educate yourself dont just browse the internet for fitness information. Read shit written by people who have coached Olympic lifters. Probably the best source of information... dont cha think? 'retarded autist'

>>42358176
enjoy never making it /fit/ard

>>42358176
Recommend starting with Science and Practice of Strength Training, written by Vladamir Zatsiorsky and William Kraemer that combined have trained more than 1000 athletes. Olympic, world, continental and national champions and world record holders. REAL athletes. Read their shit, dont fuck with cardio unless you want to be a good runner. Grow a set of nads and lift heavier weights constantly progress if you want muscle development.

Does anyone think he has a six pack under there? You can kind of see it.

>>42358829

No. Lifting can burn calories for up to 24 hours afterwards, and only slightly less during (unless doing PL style slow long rests)

Not to mention the astronomical difference extra muscle mass makes in terms of BMR

Starting Strength now moving into conjugate full body heavily focused on swapping styles of same lift
(grip width, pause reps, different stance, plank/box variations, ect.) to maximise carry-over
effect for main lifts, also going to start incorporating 'isolation' moves at lower weight higher reps but still doing the 5x5 heavy major lifts

>>42363690
Yeah top kek bruh

>>42357610

>>42357392
I wish I could go back to tell newbie me to stop fucking around as a skinnyfat DYEL and cut to 10%, no ifs no buts no excuses. Cut to 10%, then bulk to 15%, cut, bulk, repeat. I wasted my first year of lifting by first cutting for a few weeks, then changing my mind and thinking I needed to bulk.. then thinking I was too fat and need to cut instead.. Right now you're skinnyfat. CUT. And lift. Don't listen to anyone else. CUT.

>>42357392
Start doing IMF So you cut while you're bulking

hello /fit/

First off, thank you all for your glorious advice. Since I've started lifting again I'm feeling phenomenal.

I followed advice of some anons here and started SL 5x5 12 weeks ago.

I entered strict Ketosis on a 600kcal deficit and went from 85kg (187lbs) -> 75kg (165lbs).

I'm 182cm/6ft

Current stats are (all 5x5, started with bar):

Squat: Bar -> 80kg (176lbs)
DL: Bar -> 100kg (220lbs)
Bench: Bar -> 50kg (110lbs)
OHP: Bar -> 42,5kg

I'm feeling very low energy on the cut. I had to abort 2 workouts in the last week because I felt so weak. At first it was okay but now that the weights are getting kind of heavier I need energy.

I've read that bulking on Keto is not very effective.

Should I continue cutting, eat at maintenance or bulk?

Thanks

>>42364874
My plan was to exit ketosis, enter a 300~500kcal surplus on a regular diet while doing 5x5 for the next months.

Good idea?

>>42364889
Just wait for the buffdudes bodybuilding plan. Itll hit in September. In the meantime take niacin preworkout and something for energy. Keto works but its a hell diet

>>42364904
Actually I love Keto

It's beautifully simple and delicious.

But I really feel the cut and the lack of energy during the last workouts.
I get very tired and have intense headaches.

Yesterday I said "fuck it", ate 2 bananas and a piece of bread pre-workout.
Had no problems lifting and felt high energy.

I could try eating Keto at maintenance.

I'm 5'10 and only 156 pounds, but I feel like I am skinny fat. don't know whether to cut or bulk

>>42369940
You should kill yourself.

>>42364874
I had a similar issue. I got my energy back by doing a carb refeed once every week or two depending on energy levels. The refeed I use is basically one meal with rice or potatoes or similar with 100-150 grams of carbs. I look bloated for a day or two after so I need to dial it in better but my weight gain the day after is only about 1 lbs or less and the bloat is gone within 48 hours but my energy stays higher.

>>42370017
Adding - my refeed day tends to meet my tdee rather than my cut goal.

>>42370006
:(

>>42369940
You're the definition of skinny fat. Lift and cut till six pack. Could see it at 150, if not before, depending on how hard you go in gym, how much protein you get, and how much rest you get.

You're super weak for 5'10". Tons of potential. Have you been sitting at a computer your whole life?

liftan 6 months, have gained 30lbs in that timeframe

>>42371042

every time I post this picture I always get conflicting advice. for the past few weeks I've been bulking, because in the last thread i was told I barely have any muscle so a cut would be pointless.

what a good weight I could bulk to, and then cut down to? and do you agree that it's good for me to bulk and gain more muscle, and then cut afterwards?

>>42371177
you should take hormones, you'd make a hot bitch desu.

>>42371177
more like 1 month

>>42371269
I get the same shit.

"no point in cutting, you have no muscle! bulk up"

"dude, just cut down until you see your abs, then bulk from there!"

You get the same shit 50/50 and no definitive answer.

>>42371423
what have you been doing? and has it been effective?
