First rate as always.


Leafy has mastered the art of conditioning via diet and no cardio, something so few have the wherewithal to do.  This aspect is VERY important as it not only preserves muscle, it makes the whole overall process of calorie reduction more palatable and obviously much easier.  Its just one less thing to focus and waste time on.


As you can see, Leafy is by no means done in terms of adding muscle.  Should he stick with it further he will keep progressing, ultimately to the Heavies where his small waisted and small jointed structure will dominate as it is somewhat a rarity in the upper leagues.  There are too many doofus boned people as it is and this is a welcomed change.

Looking good - conditioning looks to be there and the physique as a whole is well proportioned - maybe calves could do with some more size and possibly bigger arms needed too but overall a very good physique. Good luck!  8)

QFT

Also,in the front and back relaxed shots,don`t flare your arms so much.........put them down a bit and palms should be facing forwards.

Even pros look like retards with the exagerrated "relaxed" lat spreads they do.

On the front and back double biceps shots,turn BOTH hands in towards your ears................give s the poses better lines.

Minor details,not hard to master in a week,but will improve your look onstage.


Stay focused,you`re gonna` be hard to beat,and good luck.  ;)

I eat eggwhites, rice, chicken, sweet potatoes and alot of beef. I get about 2 lbs of beef a day, a lb of chicken, and 2 cups of egg whites. Macro wise im at 300 grams of protein, 300 of carbs, and 30 grams of fat. I dieted on about 2700-3k calories this year. Now im like maybe 2600 or so. I am going no lower then that. I think the main reason why i have had to do no cardio is because i didnt gain alot of weight in the offseason. Everything has been steady the whole diet.

interesting, did you start at that amount of protein and reduce it as you reduced overall calories or did you start lower and increase it?

also how many meals a day leafy ? do you practice nutrient timing ? do you agree with adonis's belief that 1g of incomplete proteins are the same as 1 g complete protein and added them all into your total macro's ?

No everything has been the same. Nutrient timing is important post work out. A protein is not a protein. You need a full amino acid profile for optimal growth.

Last year was hit cardio twice a week on 2000 calories. The year before that was cardio everyday. This year i did not one session of cardio. I prefer doing a diet cardioless..... its much easier and i can focus on heavy lifting. I am a week out and still doing 300lb bench presses, repping 275 on should press, etc. I think heavy weight helps preserve muscle mass... i feel safe doing it too but sometimes if my tendons feel tight or i feel dry i have to lighten it considerably.

Call me a skeptic, but I don't think that would work for a lot of people. It sounds "too good to be true." I think you have to be predisposed to be lean.
