Hello!
I hope you are guys doing well.
I am 168lbs at 5'9in.
I have been struggling with a skinny fat morphology, and I have been trying really hard to get rid of it. I am always at dilemma whether to cut or bulk.. and it is just so mentally exhausting, when I cut.. I feel like I am getting weaker and skinner and when I bulk I feel like my gut is getting bigger.
I have everything in check:
Training: 6 days a week (280lbs leg press, 80lbs BB curl, 160lbs bench press, 110lbs bent over row, can't do squat or dl due to a physio issue)
Diet: All clean and about 220g of protein.
Sleep: Perfect
Supplements: Taurine, Citrulline malate, maca, creatine, betaalanine, hmb, caffeine, b12, alpha lipoic acid
I look much better now than two years ago, I looked so awful now I look so much better and much stronger. I just don't seem to progress more and those love handles are not going. I said to myself that I should cut perhaps and been cutting for a week now, but I'd love to hear your thoughts on this! Do you think I should cut, lean bulk (200-300 calories) or perhaps follow a 500-caloric surplus program?
