Sorry, I should have mentioned that I am new to weight lifting, as in free weights. However, I am not new to strength training. I have been doing lots of body weight exercises and I am a martial artist, so I have some strength. When I did my first workout yesterday, 45 lbs did not seem heavy for me at all, so I should be…

Hey I am in the same position as you! Except I started this in December and have barely seen any results. I would suggest you try the TDEE-20% method, which seems like what you are doing! But I think you should calculate it online and see what you get. This one's good http://scoobysworkshop.com/calorie-calculator/
