Dear Robert,
After my LP, I started an HLM and then a 4 days split routine that you can see
here if needed. I was planning to cut some fat accumulated during my LP.
My height is 1m80 and I was around 85 kg at the end of my LP (end of December) with a waist size around 89 cm.
At the end of my LP, daily calories intake was:
3500 kcal
Protein: 230 g (170 g from good sources)
Carbs: 390 g
Fat: 110 g
Fibre: 56 g (without counting the ones from vegetable)
For my cut, the plan was to cut by steps around 200 kcal and see what the effect on the scale and waist size is.
I started to cut in the fat to about 90 g a day now.
Now, my daily intake is:
2800 kcal
Protein: 230 g (190 g from good sources)
Carbs: 280 g
Fat: 90 g
Fibre: 40 g (without counting the ones from vegetable)
Most carbs (240 g) are taken around training.
So far, after about 1 month, my weight is about 82 kg and waist about 86 cm. Training seems to not suffer. So it obviously goes in the right direction. However, you might have advices on some macro tweaking. Also, I was wondering if you think that I could go more aggressively without too much impact on training or if I should just keep going like that.
Finally, during the first half hour of my training, I drink about about 10 g of BCAA and 40 g of maltodextrin. The next time I plan to reduce my calorie intake, I plan to remove the maltodextrin. Does it seems to be a proper tweak to you?
You
Side note: I rounded the numbers so macro nutriments values might not fit the calories.
