proper diet/losing 1% bf wk?

[jef]

If my eating is dead on and i'm lifting hard is it possible to lose 1%bf a week?

currently 220-224, 6'2", 28 y.o, apx 11%bf

[Kärnfysikern]

possible but I would say its pretty damn hard.

If you lose 2ibs of pure fat(incredibly hard) each week that would reduce your bodyfat with about 0.8% bf week.

More resonable would be to assume one of those ibs are fat. So maby 0.5% week.

Depends offcourse on what super sups you are using

Yup, that's what I told him.

so this just popped in my head huh? do you work out with me? Do you know my routine, diet etc? I don't think so...I didn't just get a gym membership yesteday and decide to start cutting 2 weeks before summer. This was a question as to whether or not it's possible. if you can't give decent advice then don't answer and don't say shznit.

jeez relax man - cant u tell u was just joking around

[Franky4fingers]

It would be doable if you were like 2x %bf, but at 11%, this is going to be rough.

My comment wasn't directed at you at all , this thread just reminded me of it, people that I'm talking about don't come to AR they'd go to McDonlads.com

yum mcdonalds.com ....sorry day dreaming cutting diet getting to me. haha. patience is a virtue or whatever. I've been cutting for around a month and a half. just sitck with it youll get there and if you dont take some sups that speed your metabolism. getting a new bottle of ECA soon

Jef, in your current state it would be hard to do seeing as you are already lean. i would aim for what Johan suggested and just eat dead on. if you are sticking the diet without cardio you should still see great success if your diet fits you well enough. then throw in some cardio after a few weeks and you will get there. my $.02
