i will soon start my diet

its no rocket science

week 1-2 = 2000 calories

week 3-4 = 1700 calories

week 5-6 = 1400 calories

thats it. i figure thats enough to get if not a six pack, then at least a flat stomach and thats good enough.

How about meal frequency,your goals,and actual food eaten.................ve ry important.

ratherbebig · « **Reply #6 on:** January 03, 2019, 03:00:11 PM »

ill try to keep it simple. 3 meals a day tops. probably wont care so much as long as i hit the no of calories. dont want to complicate things.

not sure, i just got a little bit of a belly i want to get rid of before im trying to put on muscle

problem is, as many of you knows, is stomach tends to grow along with everything else when bulking, and im not too found of that so i reckon ill try to stay somewhat flat during bulking phase and take it slower

You'll have to put on even more muscle after you lose half of it with you starvation diet.

dropping a few hundred calories every two weeks for a total of only 6 weeks, i dont think ill lose that much

im not doing a 3-4 month diet thats for sure...

ratherbebig · « **Reply #14 on:** January 05, 2019, 02:16:19 PM »

ive made some changes.

instead of lowering every other week ill stick to the same no of calories every week. i dont know where i picked up that adjusting every week or other week was a good idea, should be easier just having the same every day, less complicated.

roughly 1500 calories per day.
50% protein
25% fats
25% carbs

thats like 1 big meal and a couple of protein shakes. real simple.

since i cant screw up the numbers too much that means this will be 6-8 weeks of no candy, soft drinks, potato chips etc and very little alcohol i guess i have to stay with vodka or something with few calories

training is limited to twice a week.

You plan to diet on 1500 cals and train twice a week? Dude just go back on the chips and booze, don’t bother. The results will both be shit

the number of calories you diet on depends on your weight. naturally if i were 300 pounds i would not diet on 1500 calories.

as for training, it's the type of training you can expect while dieting, you maintain.
