That’s 1250, way too low in my opinion. Eating too little during a cut can have poor results. You have to have the calories to have the energy to burn off. Keep the metabolism high.

At the end of the blast, I would bet that the results would be almost identical in terms of body composition. I like the mental edge of taking it 2 or 3 hours preworkout, not that it actiall y does anything but gives me a mental boost.

I’m not trying to discourage you, so please don’t take it as my being negative. However, you can get a great start to your goal in that amount of time, and it’ll be enough to keep you motivated! That’s the key. Keep expectations reasonable or you’ll set yourself up for disappointment. I’ve learned to set my goals much lower than is actually possible in order that when they are reached, anything over is a bonus and makes me very happy! You’ll get there no doubt. I have faith in you as long as I know you’re doing everything it takes to make your goals a reality.

I kept telling myself I was going to cut soon. A close friend and mentor of mine caught wind that I was planning a cut and he chewed me out for considering it so early in the game. He told me to throw out all of my tren , mast, var, etc and said continue to grow. That was the single most valuable lesson I ever learned in living this lifestyle. I was always a skinny person, but when I got to 180, I was at about 8% body fat. When I hit 200, I was about 10-12. But I wanted to cut. He said I had to have something to cut and that I would end up losing muscle at my current stats.
What newer guys need to realize is that as long as you don’t eat junk and way too many calories, you’re going to lose some fat even on a bulk due to the overload of androgens flooding the body. To an extent anyways. It’s hard to properly bulk without adding some fat, but that’s usually what happens to uss who have done this for a long time because we know we have to eat well above our TDEE, and often times we are the ones that overdo it. When a person is new to things, they might eat over their TDEE most days, then some days eat well below it. So they’ll usually add less fat than us that are very strict in eating to add. They’ve not had the experience to see how things play out until they have some time under their belt.
I got long winded again. Lol. But it brought back that memory of when I was told to keep growing and it poured out. Good memory.
