Thank you very much! 😊 I need to lose 8 lbs of fat. Hopefully that will be enough for me to stay lean.

I forgot to say that when I first started working out, all I did was cardio. Literally, it was a rookie mistake because I lost a lot of weight but also muscle because I didn’t do any lifting. This resulted in me being skinny fat so I’m trying to body recomp to make up for it.
-
Ok will do. Cheers for the tip. Are there any other tips or adjustments that I can make to my routine? I feel like I’m progressing at a steady pace so everything is working out as planned.

What I mean is that by two weeks time, I’m comfortable enough to increase the weights. I’m always trying to increase the intensity of my workout so my sets for push day is the same as pull day. I know what you mean but they are balanced in terms of the intensity that I do. No, unfortunately I’m not willing to spend stupid…

I do 8-12 reps for 3-4 sets for each exercise for hypertrophy. Yes, I’m tracking my lifts to see how much I’ve improved and I do progressive overload too for every two weeks. I don’t change frequently because I stick to the program that I made for each week due a stupid amount of money for a program and I follow it every…

I only do PPL as I find it most useful to cover all of the muscle groups. x2 push day covering chest, shoulder and triceps -DB press -barbell press -High cable chest fly -tricep dips -tricep pushdown -tricep overhead extension -military shoulder press -overhead press -plate front raises x2 pull day covering back and biceps…

So at what point should I start fitting ab exercises into my routine? Do you guys think that my body fat (judging from the picture) is good enough or should I lose some fat?
-
Yh I understand where you’re coming from and it’s the consistency throughout my lifting that I enjoy the most so it’s not really an issue for me regardless of the duration of the ‘desired’ body. I made my own program through extensive research where I split it throughout the week into push pull and leg day twice a week…

Apologies for the bad pictures but yes, this is what I’ve lost throughout the months. The recent photo was back in October however now, my hip and waist has shrunk by a little bit.

I used to be overweight so around 75kg and I dropped to 67.5kg in 6 months. My nutrition has mostly been on point where I treat myself once a month to something nice but other than that, I cook my own meals and try to fit the macros that is needed from MFP

Yh I know but I’m talking about to the point where I’m grabbing it with my whole hand like it’s playdoh, there’s just too much fat there.
-
Thanks for that tip, that’s what I was looking for. When I sit down, a lot of fat just compressed against each other and I can grab it which I hate most. I’ll try to ease on the caloric deficit a bit and I’ll see how that will turn out! 👍
-
Not to be offensive but that’s the basics to fitness, I’m at a caloric deficit of 1550 calories instead of around the 1800. But the problem is, I think it’s harder for me to lose the belly fat due to genetics because my mum stores fat around her belly too.

I’m 5’7 so I’m using the MFP app to get how much calorie intake on a daily basis, to lose a pound of fat each week. I know 14.4% is on the average end but I think im more leaning towards around 18%. I know you can’t lose fat for a specific area but I still feel like I need to lose the fat so I can be lean.
