1st cycle critique...

[Curls4dGirls]

I knew at some point my diet was going to be brought up. I am at 6% for a reason. I mean I cardio probably 6 days a week and I eat extremely clean but i take in 4000-5000 cals a day, except for 1 day a week as a cheat day. This is where i want to be, not a puffy thick dude. I like the hard look I have achieved thus far and I know that with test you gain a lot of water weight but I'll handle that with PCT. I just don't see anything wrong with what I'm tryin to do here. But, then again thats why i asked for a critique and I appreciate all the input.

Sucka - Something's wrong if you're taking in 4000 - 5000 calories per day and your at 6% bf. My guess is that you're not taking in 4K - 5K cals. Here's why:

Given your stats, your Basal Metabolic Rate + Activity Factor + Thermogenic Food Effect puts your maitenance cals at ~3150 per day. So, unless you're burning 850 - 1850 cals per day doing cardio, you should be gaining weight. That's a lot of cardio.

In addition, unless you're a freak of nature, you can't stay at 6% bf without being in a calorie deficit.

Post your diet and let us take a look.

Ditto - I don't have anything against what you want to do - I just thought that you might get better gains in the long run if you hold off now and focus on your diet etc. Post up your diet and let us poke around that first.

Meal 1 - 1000 cals
Meal 2 - 160 cals
Meal 3 - 900 cals
snack - 475 cals
Meal 4 - 750 cals
snack - 15 oz = 280 cals
Meal 5 - 400

Total cals = ~4000

Unless you're doing a ton of cardio, you should be gaining weight.
