www.picturetrail.com/gallery/view?p=999&gid=5765260&uid=2861356&members=1From starting of march to presently. about 28% to 13%. Height 174cm, 18yr old. My goal is still trying to lose 5-10lbs of fat if possible then bulk. But right now I am not sure. I think mself is skinny but not low enough level of bf. "skinny fat"? If I continue cutting I will be too skinny. But I don't wish to bulk now as I will be going to Malaysia in Chinese New Year and I intend to give my relative a nice surprise with my fat lost result. Between now and then is only about 11weeks left. I will not have time to cut after bulking. What do you guys think? Contiue cutting?

I think besides the fat, you have lost a great deal of muscle. I second fitmania's suggestion on taking up weight training. Drink whey also to prevent further muscle loss/promote muscle gain.

I started weight training about 4-5 months back  , although with only very minimal or no strength gain at all at some muscles. |

sushimon, nutrition is an important factor. You need to feed your muscles, otherwise they either won't grow or they do but are quickly lost.
I find that a PWO (postworkout) protein whey drink makes a huge difference. If you want more gains, add a food source that is high in GI. Eg: Glucose or Weet-Bix.
I find that the latter makes me gain fat so I only drink protein. It's slower, but will do for me. It might work differently for you so I suggest that you try.

As i mention i one of the thread in this forum . protein without carbohydrate after workout is a waste . go look thru the nutrition section .

Yar I think my diet is as good, it consists of 7 meals with total calories 2000, 50/25/25 P:C:F. Oatmeal, Chicken-Breast, Potatoes, Egg, Nuts, Vegies.
Workout- 4 cardio per week, each 45mins. 3 weight training. 1 day off.
I been following this program for the last 4-5months, with a small tweak here and there.

I do know where you're coming from, & wouldn't recommend whey-only for the bulking phase. My body responds negatively to carbs, & on whey-only I find that I am not losing muscle, but no considerable gains either. I am still in the PWO experimental stage & will make changes if need be. sushimon - I think you need to cut down on cardio since you've already successfully lost weight, & do more lifting to increase muscle mass (muscle burns fat). Heed the advise of these guys & remember your PWO nutrition. Also visit www.t-nation.com/index.do for world-class inspiration & advise. |
