yeah in all seriousness - those stickies are great for reading through. I dont want to pretend to be an expert and give you A1 advice.... read through those stickies and try figure out what may work for you...then come back and ask questions if you have any. good luck bro

after going thru the stickies, post up an example of what you eat on an everyday basis so we can critique.

230 x .20 = 46

230-46 = 184 lean body mass

184 x 15 = 2760 cals for maintenance

you should cut at 2100-2200 cals and try this macro split 50% pro/30% carb/20% fats.

fasted AM cardio also helps!

This is my current diet;

am trying to get down to 12-15% bodyfat.

Breakfast-3 eggs and 1/2 cut of oats
Mid Morning- Protein Shake and 1oz Almonds
Lunch- Chicken Breast, Brown Rice, and Veggie
Mid Afternoon-Protein Shake, brown rice, and 1oz Almonds or Almond Butter

Dinner-Chicken Breast or Talipia, and Veggie

One Cheat meal a week

AM Cardio three times a week and 5 days a week I lift, body part a day and lift heavy.

Any thoughts, comments, or suggestions is appreciate it. Thanks

From one older guy to another go ahead and cycle(test) and use the cycle to help you cut bf, get your diet on point. This is just my opinion.

just do it at least 4-5 times a week.

for starters, you are not eating enough and try to limit the protein shakes and sub in real food. do you and me a favor by writing next to each food item, number of protein/carbs/fats/cals, that way you will actually see your numbers and how much you are eating. i use my fitness pal app to track cals and macros! you can also go online and put in the numbers you want to eat at!

i disagree with this unless he has bloodwork to back it up. i would never just tell anyone to go ahead and cycle.
