Thanks guys. I am strongly considering a cycle but need to research it more. At the moment I feel big enough(but we know that never lasts long). I'll feel better at a leaner look under 10% and maintain body fat will trying to add lean muscle. My buddy got on diet with me but been messing around. His result are also amazing. His a hard gainer so drops fat fast anyway. This is what he looks like now. His not that small as the pictures make him look but only weighs 80kgs. Arms are 40cm. I'd like to have his leaness then I'll be happy with my appearance.

Guys vains pop like mad especially while training looks awesome but is a bit on small side for me

If i may ask. The carbs, is it carbs with fibre or without?
Does it really matter or not?

Very important. Net carbs if I'm not mistaken is pure carb sources(pasta breads and rices) but then you don't take into account total carbs( this includes carbs in some protein sources). I have not taken into account any fibre as the protein shake is keeping me good.

On my diet I don't allow myself to exceed 25g of total carb intake. Having a program like MyNetDiary helps a lot in keeping me on track.

I'll have a look at the diet 101 102. Cause if I'm not mistaken
Net carbs = total carbs - fibre (soluble or insoluble) and sugars. But I'll check. Thanks

Net carbs = usable carbs.

Usable carbs = total Carbs - fibre

Usable carbs include sugar alcohols btw. Manitol, sorbitol etc.

Thanks guys. Only 10kgs to go till I hit my target for October but target can be adjusted if no abs pop out.

Found this yesterday which I'm trying a bit to curb my sweet tooth instead of ice tea light. Only have 200 to 400ml every Friday sat and sun

Fast is good faint but nice and just just colors the water

I had a cheat day Sunday to curb cravings and for a bit of a break as my mood was bad and motivation was low.

To try to lessen the damage I applied a 24hr fast from 8pm Sunday to 8pm Monday.

I have decided to apply IF to my plan now to test it and see how it affects me. I will be trying to get in all my calories post work out as from what I can read up this is the best time to get your calories. So my feeding will be about 7pm till bed time. This will leave me with a fast window of 20 to 21hrs.

I felt very good yesterday applying this and today is going well so far. I will keep you guys upto date.
