Why has my cutting come to a complete hault? 16 weeks in...
Hey guys. Ive seen excellent progress with my cut over the past 4 months, a very slow cut at that. During this ive seen strength gains looser pants but tighter shirts, guess im getting a bit bigger as a result. But here lies the problem, over the past 3 weeks I havent been able to drop a single pound and in fact im gaining a few back. This is normally what I eat and just cant understand it. If anyone can offer me some feedback of foods I can add, cut out or supplements I can introduce im all ears. (Ive done 2 cycles of an EC stack over this cut and am currently on Amp. My PWO protein is Onn Whey.
Stats - 5'10 1/2 weight 175 (fat to lose, annoying sides,lowerback,chest and below the bellbutton gut) Training for 1 and 1/2 year now religiosly and consider myself fit.
Flat Bench - 195x8
Squats - 245x8
Overhead Dumbell Press - 85x8
Bicep Dumbell Curls - 45x8
Lat Pulldown - 180x8
(Just giving you guys a better image of my strength and capabilites so you can help formulate some ideas for me)
Maybe its just time for me to stop caring about that tight lean swimmer body and start bulking. Becasue god knows I can put on 25 pounds in 4 months if asked.
