Damn, copying this off excel comes out mad out sloppy. I'm in a hurry so I can't adjust it now. Hopefully you all can still comprehend it lol

How is much is your daily calorie expenditure and are you cutting/bulking/maintaining?

Original post was edited to include caloric info.
Right now I'm actually maintaing.
I'm planning on cutting in a couple of weeks, but I'm not sure where I should reduce my calories. I'm thinking a go a little ligher on the carbs in my post-post workout meal. Cutting back 25g carbs in this meal would reduce be a 100calorie drop in daily caloric consumption. I don't want to go too low under maintenance. I'm thinking I'll go a little below maintenance, incroporate ECA, and do cardio 4 to 5 times a week. What do you all think about this plan? Also, any thoughts on carb cycling?

I have similar stats to you and I would starve at those calorie levels. Plan sounds good to me. Cardio should help. Lowering calories anymore than you have now might not be that beneficial.

Try eliminating the carb sources which cause bloat.

I explained this in detail on MD.com as well as my own forum.

I'll dig for it and re-post/backlink here.

Basically the argument is to avoid allergens, as well as foods with lignans (grains etc.) at all costs.

Switch to tubers predominantly.

This should bring an end to your bloating.

kcals look just above maintenance.

I don't particularly like your food choices.. but to each his own.

I'd increase caloric expenditure.. I would not change the diet.

Looks like a pretty solid plan to me.
