Preliminary FAQ

Cutting

Unlike weight loss techniques, cutting does not have a particular Goal weight or Start weight, and is more focused on body fat percentage and general aesthetics.

This is done by reducing the levels of fat storage on your body at the best ratio between fat loss and muscle loss.

This subreddit will focus on different cutting techniques, impressive macro-recipes, progress pics and ways to retain motivation during the cut.

How to gain weight

17 and around 53kg. Idk a thing about gaining weight. I have recently started going to gym and i want to get to 60kg. What's the best way to gain weight without using protein power? Like just normal household food if that makes sense.

Body Recomp ??

I tend to easily gain weight in my stomach and glute region, and my arms and calves stay small with little fat. Should I start bulking? Or cut the fat first?

Supplements

Hey all. In a week I’ll be beginning my cut and I’ve been wondering. What supplements do yall take to help preserve/build muscle mass? My issue is that this will be a relative aggressive cut due to me having/wanting to look good for a certain event relatively soon. Any advice?

Advice on reversing out of a cut

I’ve just finished a cut and my current cals and exercise are:

Calories 1,800 Cardio: 12-14k steps per day

My plan is to increase by 5 percent of calories the first week of reversing, then 5-15 percent each week after that. But not sure what to do with my cardio level.

Does this sound like a good plan? And should I maintain my cardio during this period?
