Th-thanks Senpai..
>>36707244
Really? A year and a half? If you keep doing what you've been doing it shouldn't be more than 6 months.
>>36707324
I'm including post cut bulking and definition. Plus, I'm probably only going to be using minimal supplements, since I'm currently living pretty sparse, trying to get rid of a bunch of debt so I can live comfortable af later on.
>>36707244
You looked like weak ass faggot, you still look like weak ass faggot.
>>36707413
Gotta start somewhere. Started werking on arms pretty hard recently, if it makes you feel better, family.
Is anyone else gonna post progress, or what?
>>36707445
The point is you focused on loosing weight rather gaining physique. You should have retained same weight while turning the fat into muscles. Instead you just lost weight.
>>36707460
That's not how this works.
That's not how any of this works.
Did you even read the sticky?
>>36707469
Yeah, you`ve be duped.
been liftin one month
>6'3 174 to 185/186
I'm pleased with newb gains
>>36707497
To lose fat > calorie deficit
To gain muscle > calorie surplus + werk
Its possible, according to some people, to gain muscle while cutting, but it takes a very precise caloric budget to do without fucking up, and managing macros and micros is already hard enough without adding that on top. The tried and true method is cut fat, then bulk muscle with about a 300 cal surplus (at the wgt I'm going to be working with, at least) to keep from adding much fat along with muscle.

Noice gainz senpai
>>36707537
t-thanks
can't wait til' I have a set income coming in so I can get on a proper diet instead of just eating what I can
>>36707522
You`ve be duped.
Your goal should have been high intensity/frequency training while retaining high calories intake.
Intense weight training would lead to gain of muscle mass, daily pool for cardio as well 1 hour cardio daily to burn the fat in muscle tissies - however you not lose weight since instead water composition in tissues would increase.
The "fat" on belly cant get away targeted, however regular cardio and weight training would result in daily slow burn of it, and relocation of fat in body differently as you burn fat every day, absorb fat every day as well - however new fat goes to muscle tissues to be burned again rather than storage, so would look not that much of a slob.
You start cutting WHEN you have decent phisique. Cutting when you are weak is pointless and if your goal is looks could easily reduce weight by reducing water percentage with sauna/sweat cardio (though healthy it is not).
>>36707244
why do ugly fucks always start these threads.
>>36707557
I feel your pain, bro.
Lately, I've been on this kick of eating tuna and nonfat mayo with boiled egg whites on romaine stalks, usually with tomato, and maybe some pickle all the time for lunch. Beautiful thing is later I can use olive oil mayo, add Avacado, and keep the yolks in during bulking.
>>36707571
I'm gonna need some sources, family. Not that I'm saying it isn't possible, but nearly every published respectable guide says bulking is the worst thing someone new to /fitness/ can do.
>>36707610
If they're already fat, I mean.
>>36707610
well you definitely don't cut, you eat at maintenance, cutting/bulking from the get go is a sure fire way to get you fucked up
i have bis now

>>36708057
Y-you too.
>>36708065
Thanks man. Make sure you're going hard in the gym and adjust your workouts if you arent seeing the progress you want after a month or two. Oh and try posting your routine in the routine threads for advice, doesnt matter if you get shit on all this shit is anonymous (plus half these fags are hungryskeles still)
11 months. From 75kg to 82kg.
Bf?
>>36708139
Thanks, man. You're awfully supportive, I appreciate it.
My gym of choice closed down, and our max fitness doesn't have squat racks, anyway, so I just got pick related + 300lbs of weight and a few dumbells. The bench will be here in a couple days.
Any advice on wat do, since I can't do squats?
>>36708058
>fat faggot support group
>>36708168

>>36708208
Have I made enough gains to warrant a cut?
I've started doing cardio daily 2 weeks ago.
>>36708195
>stop improving yourself, because I'm insecure and want as few people as possible in this world to look better than me
don't have better pictures
177 cm
started at 108-110 kg (240 pounds)
third pic 3 months later at 93 kg (205 pounds)
also third picture is first picture of a non-obese me since...idk
still going, still sweating. thanks /fit
>>36708232
Great cut, man. Needs less shirt.
We don't need clothes, where we're going...
>>36708173
Ive honestly never had that problem so Im not sure what to tell you. When people post routines try to take note of the exercises that you can do that dont have to do with squats and add them to your routine and see how they work for you. Thats what I usually do when my I stagnate and want to add variety to my lifts.
I love seeing people make an effort to improve. All the kids that talk shit are never the ones that post their pics, all the shredded dudes that do post are usually the most helpful.
>>36708195
>hungry dyel's that cant lift for shit
6ft 1, 167lbs, goal 180. is it possible fit
related pic: progress 1.5 years
>>36708220
don't full cut, do a slow cut, you should just eat at a deficit until you can start seeing more definition, then eat at maintenance until you feel satisfied that you have enough gain, then do a hard cut and see where you stand, if you have been lifting for 11 months you are already past the 6 month noob gain stage and it would be safe to cut
>>36708248
Absolutely possible, senpai. Clean bulk and patience.
>>36708248
I'm 6'3'' 185 >>36707972 without a bunch of fat, of course it's possible, keep going bro you can make it, clean bulk that shit into gainsville
>>36708242
i know, sorry. I don't have shirtless pics of me, too ashamed of what i have become. One day...
>>36708255
I guess I'll see what effect cardio will have.
245 to183 still feel like a whale, why can't i shift my torso fat?
>>36708303
nice man keep going. Also how tall are you?
>>36708303
Genetics, mostly. You'll get there, you just have to keep cutting like mad, and lift like your life depends on it. Also, I advise you look up vitamins and foods that increase your skin elasticity
>>36708309
5'11'' eating about 1000cal a day, running a lifting 5 out of 7 days
>>36707919
That hair is making me sweat jesus.
>>36708321
hmm im same weight and height but i dont look like that. Thanks anon...boosting my ego at your expense
>>36708195
just suck it you lil trap
>>36707244
I remember you. Your tattoos are still as retarded as last time. You should consider laser removal.
6'0 168 lbs
Don't have a before picture but I've lost about 25 pounds in the last 4 months with caloric defecit,occasional cardio and full body workouts 3x a week. I'm at a point now where I don't know if I should keep cutting or start putting on mass.
>>36708713
my bad, here's a resized image
>>36708720
put on mass. i was at the exact same stage about 3 months ago and i decided to lean bulk, and it's been amazing.
aim for 1.5kg per month weight gain
> went from 315 to 283 in the last 6 and a half months
>still look exactly the same
>tfw I might always look like this
>>36708780
OP here
Don't feel badman. I thought I looked exactly the same, too, until I saw these pics side by side. Keep going, bro.
>>36708729
Nice. Thanks I've been sort of dreading the bulk I know it's gonna be coming soon, I just don't wanna get too fat again, shit was terrible so I'm definitely gonna lean bulk. 1.5kg a month sounds reasonable.
