TOPIC: Overboard Progress Log

Overboard Progress Log 21 Oct 2018 06:24 #309920

I've been wanting to get down to 8% body fat for awhile now, and after checking out a few other cutting logs here on the forums I figured I'd go ahead and start my own for accountability and so that we can all hopefully learn something along the way.

I visually estimate myself at 14% right now, but I'd like to hear from any of you experienced guys if you think I'm off the mark.

The goal is to get to 8%, or at least look like I'm at 8%.

Here's my starting point - 6'1", 180.5 lbs

End of week 1 results:
Lost 4 pounds (went from 180.5 to 176.5)
No loss in strength. I'm going to try to maintain all of my lift numbers throughout this cut, but at some point strength loss may be inevitable.

My daily calories/ macros were 2400 calories, 172 grams protein, 71 grams fat, 265 grams carbs. I eat the same thing every day.

Here's what I look like now- to my eye I definitely see a difference compared to last week

From now on, I'll post updates here at least once per week, but I'll save the progress pics for every other week, since visual changes are going to be slow. I'm aiming for 1-2 lbs of fat loss per week

End of week 2:

No weight lost since last week. Still 176.5 pounds.

On the plus side, I did gain some strength, so still a productive week overall. Macros and calories were pretty much the same as last week.

I was a little loose with my diet this week and went a little over on a couple days. I also weighed myself earlier in the morning which may have skewed the results a bit.

What I’m going to do now is lower daily calories by 50 and add in cardio 2x a week and see what happens.

Nice man, lookin good already. We have the same height and weight stats right now, and it's interesting to see how differently our bodies look.
Thanks for everything you guys. It's time for me to move on to bigger things!

So long, and thanks for all the fish!

Thanks man, at the start of this year I looked like a nonlifter so I appreciate that.

Am looking forward to that looksmaxing site, I really need to improve my style as well, particularly with some cool shirts

End of week 3:

Weight - 174.5 (lost 2 pounds)

This week went really well. I dropped my daily calories by 50 from last week (so about 2350 per day). No loss in strength at all.

So last week I didn't lose any weight, and this week all I did differently was instead of having a full glass of milk with lunch, I had 3/4 of a glass (that's a 50 calorie reduction). Just goes to show that a tiny almost imperceptible change can make a significant difference if you're consistent.

I'd estimate myself at probably 12-13% bodyfat

End of week 4:
Just had a great workout after seeing this -


I lost one pound this week (173.5), eating 2300 calories per day. I gained some strength in my chest and forearms.

To summarize the cut so far, it's been 4 weeks, I've gained a bit of strength and lost 7 pounds. Perfect considering I have been aiming for 1-2 pounds of fat loss per week.

I'm considering taking a break and doing a lean bulk for a month or two, before resuming cutting again. I still have quite a bit of weight to lose before I hit 8% bodyfat and I really don't want to drop below 170lbs at my height (6'1").

12/1 update-

came down with the flu this past week and lost a couple pounds. Current weight is 172.

Only made it to the gym twice but managed to set pr’s on both days.

I’m going to switch over to training 4 times per week now and see how that goes. I’ve been doing 5 sessions a week up until now.

The route I am going with my training is very minimalist- I have 6 (or 7 if you count shrugs) main movements that I’m trying to constantly get stronger at and then I have a few isolation movements thrown in too.

Next step for me is to keep upping my strength while being in calorie surplus. Once I’ve added to my numbers a bit I’ll resume my cut. Currently emphasizing chest (via incline dumbbell press)
