Andro's Get Lean Log w/ Pics

[Bouncer]

You really shouldn't be starving a couple weeks into your diet though. When I competed the last 4-5 weeks were very hard but that's getting down into extremely low single digits. I have abs now and I'm full almost all day long and I bet I'm eating the same amount of calories as when you were bulking.

I'm curious how strict you were with your food selection when you were bulking? For me I eat the same exact thing just more or less depending on what I'm trying to accomplish.

When your used to eating a ton of cals like he was it's very common for people to get cravings after a few weeks of dieting. Tons of diets fail because of it.

The longer you eat clean the easier it gets. It takes times though. You just have to ask yourself what you want more.. that piece of cake or abs..

This is what's called dieting bro. If it was easy everyone would be big and lean..

Yes that's exactly what I'm saying. Just stop. Do what you need to do to drop the bodyfat. To get lean you need to drop cals. End of story.

I can already see your mental process. "If I eat too clean I could slow my metabolism".

Just no. Eat clean and stop worrying about shit you don't need to be worrying about.

No that wasn't it, eating clean isn't a problem. More like cutting calories too low. The calories is the problem. I went from eating 3400 down to 2350. I fear "what if I dropped it too low that I'm actually preventing my body from burning fat" it's possible your body can go into starvation mode and resists, I think it's called metabolic damage or crashing metabolism something like that

you have to understand this here and now. you WILL lose some muscle in your quest for abs. BUT once you get lean the quality of muscle you gain once you slowly increase calories will be much better.

[Androman]

Yea this is gonna take some time. I'm gonna do monthly updates or so. One thing for sure I woke up today feeling really small, kinda depressing and I've been getting really bad sugar cravings. I never had this especially when I was eating enough to gain probably because I was "well-fed".

Exactly. Nothing against andro, I like the dude. But I don't think he's ever been lean enough to truly understand his body. Things change drastically when your lean and by that I mean the way your body looks and responds to food.

When your shredded but "bloated" that's called being "full" and that is a great fucken look. But if you carry a bunch of bodyfat the same amount of bloat just looks sloppy.

Test doesn't give me the look that I'm going after. It is great for building mass though.

I always laugh when someone says use this for mass and use this for cutting. Let me run a gram of test and 50mg dbol a day and I can still be shredded if I choose to. I'd prob have man boobs but I'd be shredded. lol You haven't dieting long and hard enough to even understand this yet.
