2 month progress (pics)(bf% plz)(advice)
Hey guys, long story short Ive had a bad heroin/crack addiction for the past few years, I got clean 80 days ago and started lifting/cardio after withdrawls lessened.
I'm an athlete, skiing/climbing (rock/ice)mountaineering. I was in bad shape when I finally quit I was probably 20% bodyfat and 160 pounds, I'm 5'10". I lifted for 6 months 3 years ago and fell in love with olympic lifting.
My schedule is as follows
A day- Deadlift/Overhead barbell press/Rows/flat bench/weighted chins/dips
cardio- 30 mins 65% MHR
B day- Overhead Squat/ Front Squat/ Back Squat/ Seated calves/ weighted chins/dips
cardio- 30 mins 65% MHR
So I workout everyday with 3 days rest between same exercises.
I am on the "zone" diet, eating around 2kcals per day (140gs protein, 180gs carbs 50gs fat) I eat clean, veggies, fruits, nuts, and meat and whey.
I wanted to cut since I was skinny fat and do a little recomp which has seemed to work, the pictures look like shit and I still look like shit but I wish I had pictures from the day I got clean. I've been using the navy method to calculate bodyfat (tape measure) according to that I've somehow gained 8 pounds on my "cut" and lost 10% bodyfat, It's currently calling me 10.14% which I know is bullshit but its consistently trending down each week so I don't really care. My goal is just an athletic build because I got reconnected with my mountaineering partner and we have some awesome goals. However I do want to look good so I'd like to get low bodyfat, any advice would be great also what ballpark do you think my bf is? The pictures really suck the lighting blows, I think I look better in the mirror than I do in the pics but ohh well.
I was never able to effectively cut last time I lifted so I'm scared to bulk but I realise I probably won't look great exposing what I have now but I've been losing consistently so I don't wanna mess with it. Any advice would be greatAttachment 114383Attachment 114384
