Today I'm beginning what will hopefully be the final, 12-week phase of my cut. 93kg and 35.6 inches today, by the end I want to be 87-88kg and whatever my waist has to be for a defined six-pack. Abs for Xms or gtfo! Watch this space...
Good success to you,
@DCM
I think i'm 18 or so days in maintaing a fairly mild deficit (- 400 calories is my best guess). Woke up today just a hair over 195 instead of 200 where i started.
Plenty of bodyfat to make up the difference, and i'm geared up to be using it, so it seems like basically zero impact on performance.
I'm going to continue the deficit and could bump up 100 calories if it seems needed.
I've never done this while actively focusing on strength for a meet, but it's cool learning my parameters better.
I've only ever lost hella weight at once, or done a heavy deficit for two weeks between my last two DL cycles, or mildly mildly modulated weight as i bumped up against 200+ lbs.
Protein has remained at 1gram per lb bw.
As long as my numbers stay in line with my progressions and meet goals, i'll keep slimming down.
November i may want to go surplus again, but that remains to be seen.
I would love to do well at my meet, and also have a head start on the big cut i want.
Could make 2019 more productive than waiting to cut.
