those look good but how about almond batter? probably easier to use too

coat the chicken in almond butter and cook it like that?

diet
as per photos

training
as i’m still very sick from the flu i got yesterday i didn’t do any weight training today as i am very weak

cardio
i did however make something out of my day

in the morning as i had no work due to being sick, i did a fasted 30min walk/run with my dog around a 3km route in my area. i didnt have anything downloaded to track it but ill do it tomorrow as im having tomorrow off too.

then i just went to the gym and did 45mins on the same bike i did the other day see photos.

note:
i have now swapped gyms to the gym i logged in my most recent weightlifting log so compare all my future weights to that, not from my old logs at the old gym.

i have also added in 3 updated physique photos in the same room as my ones from when i was lean as it was at the same gym (went here previously then swapped, and now swapped back to the same gym where the lean photos were taken)

as you can see my body fat is still very high but i’ll keep being consistent as i always am.

can anyone guesstimate my bf%? just curious what it’d actually be close to. i’m assuming 20+

just to update my goals

i’m cutting right now to get lean and then ideally stay lean most of the year ‘round.

i want to be as lean as maintainable, preferably with abs.

so when i start my cycle i want to preferably stay lean, dry out as much as i can and continue slowly getting bigger.

mainly want to stay lean for social media content creation + modelling opportunities

i don’t know what i should stack for my first proper cycle so if anyone could help and suggest a few possible ideas for my soon to be first cycle, i’d appreciate it.

i’m assuming test e by itself would be the best.

With my previous ‘fake’ cycles, i was pinning into my quads however i’d really like to learn how to pin my shoulders so they can get bigger. is there any resources on this forums for pinning guides or anything along those lines?

@lukeobz80 make sure youre eating clean and ordering from our approved sources!

1 avocado
120g of rice (which i will now go and add to my bowl)

i was just meeting the macro goals.

should i lower the fat and carbs then or just have walnuts and rice at different parts of the day and only have the chicken and avocado as a dinner meal?

split the rice with fats in different meals bro
rice is pre post workout only

 

[stevesmi]

Hard to tell with your pictures your body fat but I would guess somewhere in the High Teens

 

[lukeobz80]

yeah it was after my workout as i left all my food till the end but yeah i’ll do that from now on

 

[ceo]

Bros that recipe looks amazing and very healthy as well.

 

[ROIDDERS]

you can add some baking powder and spices to chicken.

That adds a lot of flavor and it's perfectly okay.

 

[chesty]

Sorry about the flu.

Make sure next year, you get vaccinated ahead of flu season that will help you better.

 

[Ulter]

That's great. That you got some fasted walking and running with the dog.

 

[e2]

Here, chicken walnuts, avocado, and rice looked fantastic together.

That's a nice meal with good fats and good protein.

 

[2Thick]

You don't have to be scared of carbs. As long as they're good carbs is perfectly okay,.

Nobody gets fat off Sweet potatoes.

 

[Vadim Fedorov]

Body fat is somewhere between 18 and 20% would be my guess.

 

[Wootoom]

The worry, man, we're gonna get you in the best shape of your life on this log.

Just keep with the fasted cardio, every morning and be consistent.

Make sure to be full recovered first
