The last few weeks I’ve still been eating clean but I wasn’t tracking anything . Just eyeballing my meals . Had some cheats in there as well. Didn’t gain any fat . I lowered my cardio to 30 min a day fasted soon as I wake up 5x a week.
I started tracking my calories again bc I wanted to see just how much I can actually eat without gaining weight . I’m also doing this bc the next time I cut I will be able to start with my calories way higher then last time .
So I started out trying to eat 3000 cals . First day only got 2500. Second day easily 3000. On the 3000 I started to lose weight … I was like wtf !!! So I started adding calories while watching the scale and mirror everyday . Yesterday I got up 4000 calories for the day and I stayed the same . I’m gonna run with 4000 for another week and see what it does to my body. I feel incredible in gym . Skin splitting pumps . All my lifts have increased as well. I’d like to add that it’s not exactly ez to eat this much food when your eating clean. Just the sheer volume of what you have to put down bc the food is just generally lower in calories . My diet is pretty simple and mostly the same shot every day . Lean beef , ground turkey , chicken egg whites protein powder rice potatoes pasta oatmeal cream of rice . Typical bodybuilding shit . I also keep stuff on hand like halo top ice cream and a protein bar I really like for sweet cravings. The diet I created for myself is one that I like and can follow long term . Best part for me is I do actually enjoy eating this way so when I cut I get to eat the same shit just a little less of it .
