Hello. I am a 19 year old 5'7 manlet who currently weighs 165 pounds. I have been training for a year, mostly doing a brosplit since I just found out about /fit/ last week.
I was thinking of cutting down to 143 pounds or somewhere that close so I can get lean before starting to actually properly bulk since I am already at like 18% bf.
General tips are favorable , I actually want to improve.
Also yeah, I took the picture in the gym but it was during non work hours at a uni with a friend so I only embarrassed myself in front of him.
you sure you're 165?
I'm 5'7" as well and I weigh 165 and you look way bigger than I do

Last time I weighed myself(Friday) I was at 75 Kg which is 165.3 sharp. Idk, maybe the scale was off.

youre delusional, you arent 18%, try like 23%
no offense man but you are clearly over 20% bodefat.
but anyway you shoud try fasting or just eating two times a day, also do some HIIT or if you are not even doing cardio star doing it

Will do, Yeah the body fat guess was just me being dumb about it.
Fasting like Interminent Fasting I guess?

Don't let the manlet meme take over your life famalam it's all BS
Recommend a big cut with IF or water fast. Good muscle but heaps of BF to lose.

did you take your shirt off in the middle of the gym with other people in it? wtf
>>42645513
did you not read the last part of the message op posted or are you retarded
>>42645348
Ignore weight, cut until you hit 12% bodyfat, and then do cut/bulk cycles from 12% to 15% and back to 12%.
Read the fucking sticky, the body recomposition articles in particular

Will do, thanks for the advice.

Enjoy your manlet gains. Here's my 4 year progress from 5'7 155lbs to 165 lbs.
First I cut to 135lbs and I have been doing long bulks and short cuts for 3.5 years
