Many thanks

Your carb intake is way too low,you are having about 550g of protein with about 50g of carbs,thats a huge imbalance.And i dont see any essential fats.And all that protein will keep your belly just like it is,you will NOT get leaner at 550g/day.What is your water intake like?

roughly 5l a day

i worked out protein to be 350g and carbs to be 120g. fat mostly from peanut butter...25g ( i spread it thick). i do take EFAS twice daily as well as flax seed oil in my shakes

ok why not do a keto diet if u are keen to drop weight fast?

i've tried keto diets in the past but always super exhausted on them..i have to train at least once a day with weights and cardio..and three times a week of rugby prac. I won't be able to survie on a keto diet unfortunately, but i know how effective they are.

well do keto in your offseason and ur cardio was probably to intense...

training split is:

mon: chest
tues: back biceps
wed: triceps shoulders
Thurs: legs abs
fri: chest

i am also gonna start incorporating HIIT cardio from tomorrow. 20 min a day 5x per week. 14.5km/h 1 minthen 4.5km/h for 1 min alternatring (on treadmill). I've been doing 1 hour of low intensity cardio lately but this hasn been effective at all so switching to HIIT.

ok just realised im being a little bitch....i should just suck it up and tae on the keto diet....what would one look like for someone like me?

A keto diet is a keto diet, limit your carbs, no direct carb sources (20-40g a day), keep fats high and obviously lots of protein. You dont need to worry if you dont go below your maintenance calories as there is something called metabolic advantage on keto diets so if your calories are above maintenace you will still lose fat. Remember its important to keep fat intake high otherwise you will end up metabolising protein to glucose and then it's bye bye ketones :wave
