Yer you got it mate basically cleaning up my diet in Jan then adjusting portions size and have the cutting threw phases, its what i can seem to be able to hack. Cutting is easy its maintance that i find impossible.

Cutting was a piece of cake compared to bulking IMO, i'm hoping to do a much briefer (albeit probably harsher) cut this time round, no longer than 12 weeks. Any tricks of the trade you care to share?

All I would say is don’t jump straight in to using all your life lines at once - stagger it so that once you reach a plateau with that approach vary it slightly and go again I used 6 approaches in a 14 week cut last year. You probably knew that though!! Swift – Throw in a bit after legwork out maybe twice a month, I really don’t think its necessary with all the other core lifts though. What are your thoughts?

What are your thoughts? my thoughts are that when your bulking up you wont really be able to see them anyway, if i know im going to cut at a certain date though ill start doiing them say a month or two before. by the way thought id throw in that i think deads and squats are over-rated as bodybuilding movemnts

good luck wth the journal mate, all the best people were born in 1989, although it would seem 1989 is the year of the powerlifter rather than the bb what bf% are you at roughly mate?

Calipers say anywere between 19-25% so probly about 23% for safe measure! To rite 1989 was THE year.. and who knows one day might move over to power lifting.. Who am i kidding my grip is ****e and i have no back power to speak of!

I really have no idea mate i have never cracked a 200kg deadlift yet feel i can get a 240kg squat out. I have great lower back fle><abilty prehaps this is why it hampers my deadlift in some way..
