Please Scroll Down to See Forums Below Right now im on a cutting cycle but I feel I might not be taking advantage of the cycle to its full potential because I have not noticed any substansial difference with fat loss and decided to ask the pro's. Right now im taking 50 mg a day of winny and 500ml a week of primo. I'm headed into my 5th week and I have gained about 10 pounds, going from 175 to 185, and my lifts have had a definite increase. About 30 to 40 pounds on bench. My diet has been pretty good. I figure I slip once a week but mainly have been on a high protien diet. EAS shakes and maybe a bar once a day. An average meal for me is 5 hard boiled eggs in the morning, two chicken subs from Subway( That 5 dollar special has roped me in ), and as I stated a shake and bar after my workout. I was eating tuna alot but I sort of got sick of it and I switch up the subs for tilapi once in a while. I know I should be doing more cardio. I only do about and hour and a half a week. Besides an increase in cardio what other changes should be made to my program( BTW I lift 6 days a week, two muscle groups a day, even though I am completely satisfied with my strength gains, just incase that helps you guys determining changes I should make with my schedule ). Im interested in all advice and as always thanks to ever responds.

Im leaning towards the same conclusion but the problem is I dont really have a diet to critique. Besides the low carb protien shake I dont have anything that I do exactly the same. More often than not I stick with hard boiled eggs for breakfast and 4 days out of the week its two subway subs for my other meals but there are alot of substitutions and like I said before, I slip off of my diet for a day here and there. I guess I should just look at other diets on the board and start copying one that sounds benificial for my situation.

Def looks like a Diet issue, but cardio could be playing a pretty big part also. As stated above, post up a full daily diet breakdown, we can help from there.

Though your diet doesn't need to be the same everyday it should be basically the same.
For example you can plan Meal 2 at 9am to be 8oz of lean meat and 1/2 a cup of veggies. You can choose whatever lean u mant along with whatever veggies u want.
It sounds like u fluctuate so much with your diet u r never consistenly getting approximately the same amount of calories every week.

my diet is also up and down so i have become a big fan of HITT cardio a few times a week--always gets me past stuck points and keeps my metabolism a little faster than its natural set point (like tortise slow)
If its about posting a general overview of my diet than I gues Ill throw this up, however pathetic it maybe. Unitl the end of next month this will be about what my schedule is,
10:00 AM 5 hardboil eggs
2:30 PM 12 oz of lean meat, 2 cups of vegtables, tablespoon of ranch
9:00 PM 12 oz of lean meat, 2 cups of vegtables, tablespoon of light mayo, EAS low carb protien shake, scoop of whey protien, and banana.
I know this isnt a very solid diet but I never really tried to keep a strict one before. When I was in the Army I just made sure to run 5 miles a day but I lived in Georgia where it was warm and I had a nice outdoor track to run on but now im in NY and its still cold outside. I do at least an hour and a half cardio in the gym a week but I want to get some good results. If you guys have any advice, no matter how dramatic of a change it is to my routine now, I would like to hear it and thanks for everyones time.

You gotta watch those chicken subway subs, I believe its processed chicken, not to mention whatever you add too it such as mayo, ranch dressing ect. best bet from subway is the roast beef or turkey if you HAVE to eat there, also thier tuna subs use tons of mayo so thats a no-no if cutting too

That Subway chicken, along with all their other meats are processed and full of sodium. All they do at Subway is promote how low the grams of fat are in their sandwiches. Who cares.. I don't think eating Subway is healthy at all when you have committed to a serious cutting cycle.
