Dude you shouldnt take it down at all. Thats like motivation for this entire board lol

haha thanks dude, yeah man hard work pays off

We should just have a separate workout log with pics.

Well I survived my workout! Actually I felt fine after warming up. Did underhand chinups, db shoulder press, and deadlifts. All in my 10-12 rep range, for 35 reps each.

I know I'll be hurting tomorrow though

I think the best way to do a progress share would be to create a private social group, so pics aren't out in public

dude guys I have a problem and hope you guys can help me out....
I started out 3 months ago at 162lbs....

eating 2800 on my non-training day (I'll just use non-training, just assume training days I eat 200 calories more with a fair amount coming from carbs PWO etc.)

I know this was way above my maintenance but hwat I did was lower it by 200 every 2 weeks or so
Got down to 1800 calories and was at 159lbs
Now I'm at 1600 calories and still at 159 lbs.
I only drop calories after at least 2 weeks of no progress, ie. weight still the same/didn't lose any fat.

I still honestly don't think i look any better, it's hard to tell because during the daytime I don't look that great, but at night time or morning I look ok.
Waist is 32 still so sucks..

I'm 5'7.

Should I lower calories even more? It seems like for most people 1500 or lower would be almost "starvation".


fyi all this time I've been doing 1-2 hiit sessions a week about 10-15mins, 4-5 low intensity cardio 40mins...
now I stopped with HIIT because my carbs are really low. I've even started losing strength due to the low carbs...

any ideas? Should I just lower to 1400 cals? Metabolism is still fine as my body temperatures are above 97.3 in the mornings and above 98.3 in the afternoon.

Don't count calories, country protein (1g per lb bodyweight) from good sources, drop carbs to almost zero, and do high rep weight training with HIIT. forget calories, forget fat. That will work itself out.

IMO you should lower the cals to 1400 and hit the gym really hard, 5-6 reps each exercise to try and maintain whatever muscle mass you still have while loosing weight. do HIIT 3x a week. this is what I have been doing for the past 3 months and its working. keep proteins at 1 to 1lb, drop cals from carb sources.

Calories are nearly irrelevant compared to the actual nutrients going into your body.

true but if your goal is to loose weight they are relevant

Wrong (well technically it is, but if you follow my easy advice of only paying attention to protein and carbs, and proper training, it most likely work out in the end)

There is no magic 'number' that you need to hit is my main point. Starving yourself and doing stead state every day will only backfire for most people.

dam my shoulders and tris are on fire today

Tylenol 3 ftw :thumbsup:

Water, and lots of it.

I'd play if we could do something like this. Just got home from 2 weeks at work and found my fat gripz and whiteflood samples sitting at my desk. Looking forward to the next week at the gym. I feel skinny after not hitting the weights for a week.

I think a social group would be the best way to do that, we have way too many forums as it is ;)

I'll set it up tomorrow morning. I think myself, RRxtar, and Halo could be the group admins. I'll PM you guys about it later
