Nice Pics and I agree with wildwoody

Great looking bear

Those look awesome

Nice job

That looks awesome!!!

My first cut ever was a big one. All healthy, low calories!!! That sucked! Thats why people get off diets and plump back up because its just to extreme! While bulking I ate healthy 80% of the time and it was easy because I was always over eating and feeling full. This time for cutting I took the advise from people who has made a life out of lifting, cutting, and doing shows. They all say the same thing go long and slow with a cut. Since Im cutting and no longer over eating I feel more cravings for greasy foods. Breakfast I always eat half of a breakfast burrito from the food truck, and usually eat something good like a burger or pizza and wings for lunch. Dinner wife usually cooks something really good and healthy with lots of veggies and greens. As long as I keep hitting my calories and focus on protein I do good. Every week I drop 1/2 to 1 pound of weight every week. So more like 50% of the time I eat healthy while cutting. I won't put myself through what I did the first time.

Summer is up on us again. Spent all winter bulking and lifting. Gained around 5-7lbs of muscle. Now Im on week 7 cutting. Im just doing a flexible diet high in protein about 350 calories below my maintenance. Ive lost 7 pounds. Last time I was at 180 lbs I was at 20% body fat and last week I hit 180lbs again with the extra muscle I gained and Im at 15% body fat. For the first time in 15 years Im starting to look good Im going to keep going until I hate eating in a calorie deficit

ideally 300 yards - 1000 yards for me. I would say I focus mainly on the 500-800 yard ranges. About 500 yards they don't notice you or don't care. Get yourself in an area were 80% of the time you can be glassing 400 yards out. (that means your in a good spot and you can spend some good amount of time in that spot glassing) Never overlook 100-300 yards though

Oh man I forgot about this rifle. You need to start shooting asap and see how she does! Thats a sweet rig

Try the 36A or 36 B youth Nov 23- 29th. If you go that route hit me up. There is plenty of road hunting possible with that limited amount of tags. Ill point you in some areas not to far off the pavement too

Hey Congrats

Went up on the Rim on FR 237. Found out that day was no fire. Suck!! Crappy night! But man oh man the dirt is like sand dunes out there

That looks like my reloading table all the time sadly

Very Nice

I have never been below 10% but most reports of people trying to achieve that says that last little bit will take the longest. You got to remember the body wants fat! Once you get that low it will try everything it can to hold on to it especially at the calories your at for your size . Sounds like your body is near starvation mode and now it recognizes it and slowing your metabolism down. You should know when you hit it. Food craving is getting out of control, testosterone is down, not as happy or somewhat depressed. If you are at that point add some food for a while and cut back down.

Holy Crap!! How long have you been at 1900? Your TDEE ( Total Daily Exercise Expenditure) with moderate exercise 3-5 days just to maintain is 3500 calories Even Jeff has a video Ive seen about being to low and how you will hit a wall. Is the calories his plan? Did you start at 3000? Then work your way down. If you went strait to 1900 you will be losing weight like crazy fast and then hit a stalling point. You could be there. Maybe go back up to 2500 for a few weeks and add some brisk walking for 45 min a day and work on your calorie drop from there. Lots of studies have been done when you hit walls your body needs a change before it can progress on what you are trying to achieve. The easiest is the long slow steady weight lost which your body can adapt (which most people do not want to do) Doing it to fast has a down side. Most people get off and the body doesn't have enough weeks to adapt and wants to go back to what it was. So when people get off a diet and go back to their old habits within 2-6 months they gain it back.

Awesome. What is your height and weight. Do you know your bf%? 5-11' and as of right now for my last seven day average of weight is 182lbs. When I was 190ish I was about 18-20% body fat. (When I started 210lbs 30% body fat in Oct 2017) Im probably 16-18 right now. Still got some fluff around the waist but I can wear a Med size shirt now and not have a gut. Top 2 abs are starting to show! You are in the 10-14% when you can see all your abs not awesome but you can see them. With my typical work outs My TDEE is 2800 calories just to maintain weight. So I usually just hit 2500 calories.

Oh man looks good

Those Mounts on the wall look awesome!!! Oh the scope looks cool too

Do what works for you! If you like it keep with it. Going strict and hard will get fastest results. I lost 30lbs, but in 2 months you hit a wall hard!!!!!!. So I Started to bulk (lifting in calorie surplus) and put on 5lbs of muscle and 2 pounds of fat. Started my cut again 4 weeks ago on a enjoyable diet (nice and easy, no wall hitting) Im about 250-350 calorie deficit, and weight lift M,W,F and light carido Tues, and Thurs. Im eating 2500 cal a day and I just focus on a 80/20 rule. I eat healthy 80% of the time and always have cheat food everyday (just not in large amounts). So far Ive lost 5lbs in 4 weeks (slow and steady) and never hungry, and eat snacks that I want. I just focus on about 150-200 grams of protein and let the carbs/fat fall into place. Once I hit 2500 calories I just stop. But I always leave about 300-400 calories at night to snack on so I never feel hungry going to bed. Oh a big thing is just don't drink your calories. I love Mt Dew but Diet Mt Dew sucks, so I have Cherry Coke Zero, and Sparkling Ice water. Every morning drink about 16oz first thing of water and try to drink as much water as possible. Keep at it and once you start feeling like you want to quit and you need more food, just bump up your calories 250 for about 2 weeks and then go back to doing what you were doing before.
