You really need to implement some fasting as well.

its a healthy way to get that body fat down.

In 2014-15 I had a hard and long time on losing weight. In a year, I lost 78lbs. Two things made my metabolism drop a lot: very low carb, and fasting. My nutritionist had a maquine to check the metabolism through indirect calorimetry. The metabolism dropped around 20% after low carb and fasting. There are other reasons as well. Strict diets raise your estradiol due to the stress.

So it’s the reason that I’m training max 10sets per muscle, and max 90min per day (normally 1hour).
Also, no cardio yet; waiting for losing a bit more weight

Welcome to the EVO family @Saboya

fasting how much did you do?

Thank you, I do not do fasting. First meal 8am, last meal 8pm. If from 8pm to 8am is fasting, so 12hs. I prefer to be in high caloric deficit, but eating each 3hs.

Keep up the good work man.

I think fasted cardio is going to be the weapon of choice.

 

[Arabian]

Keep the die updates coming. We haven't seen much out of you lately with that.

 

[BookerTNY]

I definitely want to see what you're doing with your diet.

Besides just posting, how many calories you're getting in your Macros.

 

[Austin316]

I would start the cardio sooner than later.

That's when your turbo charged Fat loss will start.
