Absolutely AMAZING RESULTS! Love it!

Oh that's good to hear! That might explain a bit why I have been eating way above my bulk kcal these last two weeks... Was feeling I needed more and more...

My name is Imaan, I am 41 years old and I am from The Netherlands. I've started my first bulk as of the 2nd week of September. 1. Starting weight. 71kg 2. Bulk goal weight. 75kg or so... 3. Maintenance calories. 2200 4. Bulk calories. 2500 ( but have been eating way more the last weeks...) 5. Bulk goal duration. Sept -…

Amazing job!!! Your hard work is paying off! Proud of you my friend :-)

Bump for later! Thanks!

I agree with this ^^^. I also found it hard to go back to cutting. So I ate at maintenance and when I felt good about that, I dropped 100 kcal a day. I try to weigh every 2 or 3 weeks, allready lost 0.7 kg, but seeing changes in the mirror >>> that' what I like :- ) Good luck!

Just AMAZING! Congrats and wishing you two all the best!

@ Heybales, thank you so much! Exactly what I was looking for!

Hi, I got my FB yesterday and I'm still trying to figure out how I should set it up. I have my restweek coming up. Normally I lift 3-4 times a week. Can anyone explain to me, very very simple, how I have to set it up to: -eat at TDEE ( as I want to eat at TDEE for 1 week every 4 weeks) -to eat at 10-15% cut both including…

Thanks! Will save to read later.

Thanks! This info really helps! :flowerforyou:

Hi, you're welcome to add me if you'd like. I've started my reset on the 8th of February. Since then I've upped my cals a couple of times as I'm trying to find my correct TDEE. At this point I would prefer eating above TDEE than under as I hope to benefit with lifting. ( started again after a couple of years break ) I'm…

Need to follow this one!

@Ackeebee & Chrisja, Congrats on completing Insanity! Excellent job!

Congrats! Awesome job! Enjoy your well deserved rest and lots of fun with Asylum!

Is this the last week for the 2 of you? Good work!

Hi! Can I still join too??? Really need some support ;-)

[/quote] If you selected moderately active for your TDEE activity multiplier why would you eat back your calories? Unless you are working out more than at a moderately active level then your calories are already accounted for. One thing about a 10% cut I would caution you about and that is precise food logging and food…

Thanks! warm up and stretching is about 20 min. I am a stay at home mom that homeschool little ones, so I try to sit during the day but that's a challenge, lol... so mostly on my feet and busy.
