what exactly are your goals? it's a good idea to envision what you want to look like to find out what you need to do to get there.

similar sa imong end goal sab, but i just don't have that enough dedication.

my mindset now is as long as nka.lose lang kog weight and i'm seeing progress... i'll take it as it comes. but i know dili ni mao akong gusto ultimately.


payter kaau imong delts. nakuha dayon nimo in 2 mos kapin lng...

500 calories over my TDEE. half a kilo of weight gained per week.

you won't know you have enough dedication until you try first =)
it looks like you're doing great with the weight loss. in my opinion it's harder to cut than it is to bulk. it's easy just to over eat and work out - which essentially what bulking is.

as far as my delts go i'm blessed to have wide and big shoulders. hehe. that's all genetics in my opinion. as you can see my biceps are just now starting to "peak". some muscles grow faster than others. after 3 months of bulking i noticed my chest and biceps are the slowest growing as far as hypertrophy is considered.


if you're trying to take your body to the next level i would start by doing a body recomposition diet [ 150- 350 calories over your TDEE ] and start lifting as heavy as your muscles can muster. [ 3x8-10 ]

personally i don't believe in BMI. it's just too old school and doesn't take into account muscle mass at all. don't consider yourself overweight. but consider it as you're high in body fat percentage.

a bulk is required to create muscles. in my opinion weight isn't important. but body fat percentage is. if you remember my before pictures i was 30-35% BF @ 160 lbs/72.3 kg. i've been clean bulking for almost 12 weeks now. i'm now 15-18% body fat and 175 lbs [ i dirty bulked for 2 weeks - didn't like it much ]

despite gaining weight i dropped my body fat percentage by a huge amount through muscle building. the more muscle you have the more fat you burn.

what exactly are your goals? it's a good idea to envision what you want to look like to find out what you need to do to get there.

before:
Feb 6 2014
160 lbs / 73 kg
body fat: 30-35% [ maybe even more ]




picture taken with samsung phone + camera360 + hdr filter. sorry i couldn't find the original. don't pay attention to the "extra" coloring" just the muscle i created compared to my before pic. this was taken 2 days ago.









current: 175 lbs / 80 kg
body fat : 15-18%
end bulking goal : 190 lbs - 200 lbs / 86 kg - 91 kg

end goals:
weight : 155-160 lbs / 70 kg - 73 kg
body fat : 8-10%


this is what my end goal should look like if done properly. despite being "160 lbs" he's 6-8% body fat.
which means 150 lbs or so of that is muscle. i don't even think he's flexing. which is the look i'm going for and what i've envisioned for myself. i <3 aesthetics. to sculpt such "art" you need to do a bulk and cut cycle.



sir @silahis find out what you want to do with your body first. it isn't always necessary to bulk. it really depends on your goals. but if you're truly trying to create muscle and burn fat. a bulk is required for some great results.

goodjob sir\m/ delts of peace!!!

haha sorry. anything you don't understand just google it. it become stock knowledge pretty quicky. once you understand the basics/foundation everything just comes into place by being consistent.

weight shouldn't matter. but body fat percent should.

i have a friend, same height but a lot lighter than me. i think he is just around 135lbs at around 10% bodyfat but looked 10x more muscular compared to me(im fat anyways) what i noticed is that if you have already a decent muscle mass and decided to go on a cut, you will still look big after cutting provided that there is just minimal muscle loss during the process.

yup yup! it's completely awesome. my friend that was in that pic a long time ago is at 150 lbs or so now. but he sure as hell doesn't look 150 lbs. he still can dead lift almost 500 lbs which is over 3x his own body weight. the videos he sends me are completely inspiring.

he tells me a lot of the time people ask him what his weight is and after hearing 150 lbs they usually think he's 175+

Can you share those videos here sir for additional motivation? TIA
