All I know is that I know nothing, yet with Google I have too much information! I'm 19% body fat and want to be under 15%. I usually plateau at 17.5% then I'm back where I started within 3 months. It's a typical yo-yo. Good news is I catch it on the up before I get beyond 21% but bored of the struggle and need to find a way to maintenance and achieve balance.

    Pretty much in the same boat here - what kind of workout are you doing?

    So you're cutting?

    And lifting heavy

    What's your programme?

    Hey Rabbit,
    I'm on a low carb moderate protein diet. I play squash/racketball twice a week. I'm not currently at a gym but lift a 16kg kettlebell at home and do some core floor exercises.
    Would you recommend heavy lifting?

    I'm playing squash at a reasonable good level and lifting a kettlebell at home as I don't have time for the gym at the moment.
    I'll also run 3-5 miles once a week but that's not routine.
