Hi, am needing some help cutting again
My first attempt at cutting turned into more body recomp, I added about 3 pounds and lost an inch from my lower abs. But have hit a wall again, now am less focused on abs and more on cutting fat overall. I have made some real good gains and my strength is still going strong. What I really want now is to get ripped, stay strong and increase endurance and speed. Not competing (never say never).
My diet as of the last five months
1 - Oats and milk, sometimes 1 slice of toast and peanut butter
2 -1/2 Chicken Breast - 100g cooked Brown Rice
3- 1/2 Chicken Breast - 100g cooked Brown Rice
4 -2 Egg Omlette
5-Meat/Fish, lots of veg sometimes carbs
6 Cottage Cheese - sometimes small chocolate or yoghurt/glass of wine
Last month started having a handful of nuts and dried fruit to eat during day, but have ditched this as felt the fruit was giving too much sugar and I sit at a desk all day so was taking in too many extra calories, plus i have dropped the carbs from meal 3. Dont feel like I miss the carbs.
Am currently doing 1 week bulk low reps and heavy weight and then 3 weeks moderate weight high reps on rotation. Have upped cardio and full body exercises such as 180 jump squats and incorparated yoga at the end for stretching and flexibility. Am currently on week 3 off this type of training. Have done 1 week bulk and am starting 3rd week high reps then next week will be bulk again.
Thinking wether to drop more carbs and be more strict on the treats at meal 6
How long can fat loss take to start happening, am planning another cycle in 4 weeks to help with this but want to be on the right track first.
Thanks for any advice
