Hi guys skinnyfat guy here. I'm doing ss on a cut Are my lifts gonna be stalled or will I make any progress? 5'10 and 178 lbs OHP 90 lbs Bench 120lbs Squat 200 lbs Chinups assisted 30lbs Deadlift 200lbs(grip issues) This is my progress after a month. Have been cutting at 500-800 calories per day. My main goal is getting thin enough for abs so should I even bother with not progressing?
I do cardio twice a week

symmetry is pretty fucked up

>skinny >cutting >while strength training
Not going to make it. You need to gain. Get those muscle groups in the green categories by building them up. This will require body fat. Once you've actually got good lifts going (stalling out on SS, no linear progression) then consider cutting and brosplit bullshit. You're subpar in some areas ffs, you can't even get ottermode at this strength level.
Read the StrongLifts website and the sticky.

cut to below 15% then eat at a 300 calorie surplus
Easton Moore
I'm at 24% right now. What about lifting progression?

>strength training >on a cut no, you won't make any progress. You need caloric surplus to gain muscle and strength. You need to lift while cutting to preserve as much muscle as possible but either way you will lose muscle mass and strength on a cut. This is the way of a natty. If you don't like it, you can hop on gear.

Symmetricstrength, it is a site.

Don't listen to idiots who say you need to bulk. I am assuming your goal is to look good, not become huge or push big numbers. Just eat around 500-800 calories below maintenance and make sure to consume 1g/lbs of LEAN body mass. This is what I, did along with SS+upper body accessory lifts and I became intermediate in all my lifts and finished my cut after 4 months. Now bulking for 2.5 months and the gains keep on coming. Pic is me 2 weeks in and a shortly before finishing my cut.

Are you supposed to fill in total weight or weight per side ex. 1pl8(45) or fill in 90 pounds?
Jonathan Hall
because the bar weights nothing, right? lmao nice meme ecks dee
Evan Rogers
Total weight.
Adrian Jackson
Total weight except for dips, chinups and pullups. In those cases you only put in the weight you add to your body.
Nathaniel Myers
>He adds the bar Never going to make it
Grayson Hughes
I'm in the same situation as you looking at your before pic. Thanks Yeah I'm fat. Started at 220lbs and now at 178 but it's getting tough
Nolan Bell
you gained exactly zero muscle mass you might as well have eaten at a bigger deficit
