How did your cut go leonardo?

I think either way is fine. If you have another go at your 10's you will be extending your cycle which is probably good anyways. It happened to me on my last cycle. I was going for 100kg * 10 on bench press but I only got 9 reps at the end of my 10 rep block. I knew I could do better so on the...

Hi O&G. I mean't eating at maintenance calories. I will train to grow over the 2 weeks maintenance. I think it was in Totentanz's book to eat two weeks at maintenance calories if weightloss stalls. I live in the UK O&G so hopefully they do all hormone tests etc at the docs here. What do you...

Thanks Mick. I need to make some changes I guess. Another week down and I haven't lost anything. I'm going to have next week off training and dieting then I'm going to do two weeks training at maintenance then back to the cut. Will be getting some bloodwork done also

So if i'm choosing 2000 cals for my diet. At 200lb I have protein at 200g - (800 calories) for the remaining calories I have been using around 210g of carbs and about 45g of fat. Would there be any difference in me using say 100g of carbs and 95g of fat for fatloss? Or should both diets be the...

I should say fat loss. I've edited original post

Sorry O&G I should have been clearer. I know protein is important for dieting. But I mean I have seen posts here that say only calories matter when it comes to the type of foods eaten. But assuming I start with 2000 calories. I prioritize protein first. What I'm trying to get at is for the...

Do carbs really have any baring on losing weight? I've seen people here say that it's only calories that matter. If the same person was dieting on 2000 cals a day but one was eating 250g of carbs p/day and the other say 100g. Are results the same?

Thats good then adpowah. So assume when you gained most of your muscle back based on looks you would have also been leaner and looked better because of your "light bulk" and the fact you had just come off training for your 10k?

NOOOOOOO!

When you say temporary does strength come back straight away during a gaining phase? Also. If I lose strength does that mean I have lost the hypertrophy I might have gained?

Thanks for the responses. It's not really the answers to the questions I'm looking for though. On RFL jester Lyle is aiming for about 20lbs of weightloss and 4 - 7lbs of fat loss in the 2 weeks. Strength must suffer greatly on this. I'm talking about is there a way to maximize the retention of...

What about fatloss and not general weight loss? Is there a situation where consuming more calories (still below maintenance) results in more fat loss and less tissue loss? Another question. Which has the greatest impact on loss of strength. Not consuming enough calories post workout? Or not...

Is there any situation where eating too few calories will stop the body from losing weight? Might sound like a stupid question. But I remember reading on Borge's website. He said something similar. If my maintenance is 2700 - 2900 is going to 2000 too low? The RFL diet has low calories which...

Ok. I'll get it done.

OK. Totentanz. I'll get booked into that this week. I assume I can get it done at the doctors. I know they check everything else thyroid etc because I've had it done. I'll have to ask. Question though. If I had low testosterone. Would I gain strength like I did on my bulk?

Jester. I have an arythmia problem. I don't think reduced calories will help it. I weighed myself today and I'm disappointed to see that my weight still hasn't moved. I'm busting my ass and being totally strict on my diet. I don't understand how at my weight and height I can't lose weight on...

already got it. The question how much muscle and strength do you lose on it. It talks about losing 4 - 7 pounds of fat in 2 weeks yet 10 to 20 pounds of weight. Is RFL geared towards bodybuilders? Reading on I don't think it is for me. I haven't got the will power to only take 600 to 800 cals...

I'll give RFL a read if I can find it
