To Cut or Bulk??

[humzy]

I have been training for two years now with minimal results. I have attached pics of how i currently look.

I am 84 kg with unknown bf %. Height: 6'1

Basically if i try and increase calories it all goes to my stomach and if i reduce calories i lose all my hard earned muscle.

I'm not sure what i am doing incorrectly, i feel i just have really **** genetics but i am determined to get the physique i want.

This is my last resort before i start paying a personal trainer in hopes of some sort of changes.


My Diet consists of the following:

9am: 2 scoops of whey protein with oats

11am: 1 can of tuna / 3 rice cakes / 62g of cottage cheese mixed with 1 scoop of protein

3pm: 200g chicken breast / 125g Brown Rice / spinach / 50 g pistachios

7pm: 200g chicken Breast / 4 wholemeal bread slices / olives / hot peppers / spinach / onions

8.30pm: Workout

10pm: 1 scoop of wey protein / 1 banana

Macros:

Protein - 276

Carbs - 217

Fat - 73


Total Calories : 2700



I currently workout 6 days a week with no cardio

Following split:

Mon - Chest / Bi's / Calves

Tues - Shoulders / Traps / Abs

Wed - Back / Tri's

Thurs - Legs / Calves

Friday - Rest

Saturday - Arms / Calves

Sunday : Legs


So i guess i just need some pointers on whether to bulk cut or maintain and recomp, as well as critique of my training and diet. A lot of people train less and eat less then me yet still grow more and it pisses me off!

You're pretty high body fat % I would work on getting that into the 10-12% range.

Try to do your cardio on the stair mill.

Do you drink at all? Be honest

I drink once a month to be honest.

Yeah how much cardio do you think i should do?

I already feel skinny fat, if i do cardio i will just look skinner right

Ok gotcha.

Regarding cardio do 30 minutes on the stair mill first thing in the morning prior to eating. Do that for 4 weeks and reevaluate based on what that does for you.

do you think i should do it 7 days a week or stick to like 4 days a week?

 

[infraredline]

Do every day

Hey buddy this is what I would do. Wake up in the morning and do fasted cardio first thing. 30 minutes every day. Then do your lifting in the afternoon if you can. 4 day split would be fine.

Decrease your calories by 400.
