I do sprints and jumping rope almost daily in a fasted state, and I do heavy bag stuff. Could this make me buff in say, 6 months? How many sets (and reps) should I aim for with the three exercices mentioned in the title?
Pic is what motivated me to start working out

>in a fasted state Fucking eat

I do, I just like to do cardio faster to control body fat

Are you memeing or did you seriously fall for that broscience? CICO and correct macro balance No, you'll stall in like 3 months and go from skelly to a little bit more than skelly
Nathaniel Hill
Well, going a long time without eating does deplete glycogen stores in the body, meaning when you do cardio with no glycogen in the body you use fat for fuel, or is that wrong?
I've also been thinking about doing intermittent fasting, but I have to do the cardio anyway (for endurance and stamina for the heavy bag stuff)

Better alternative would be to bulk for a season on a strength routine, then transition to an endurance bodyweight/calisthenics routine and a recomp diet

No. You'd gain a small amount of muscle mass, assuming you eat, but you'd mostly just end up getting very defined. Not strong, but with high endurance. Like a sporty teenage boy.

This has to be bait. I refuse to believe someone is this retarded. Let me guess OP, your skinnyfat and on a cut, and you think you are going to look guts in 6 months by doing some pushups.

The pic is just motivation. I'm not skinnyfat, I have good muscle mass but I'm looking to cut down on BF (around 15% right now) I'm 5'7 and like 154lbs. My goal is not to be huge, I'm not asking for too much. Something like Jake Gyllenhaal on Prince of Persia.
