(Pardon the body hair) I finally started tracking macros about a year and 8 months ago but I don’t feel like I’ve made as much progress as I could have based off some other people I’ve seen, and can’t help but feel like I don’t look much different. Have been really trying to focus on time-under-tension and slowing down the eccentric only pretty recently (past month) so maybe that’s why
Relatively the same weight in the first and second pairs of pics, first two pics are the result of my very first attempt to bulk and the second two are after a short cut followed by a slower bulk (6 week cut into 6 month bulk). I’m starting a 10 or 12 week cut in about 4 weeks, as I’ve never been at a very low bf% and want to cut the fat before bulking again, but I’m considering starting it sooner if not right away.
I’m not entirely sure what my 1RM’s are but as far as my main lifts go:
Bench: 185 used to be my 1RM, now I rep it 2x5 after 2 sets at 175x8
Deadlift: 185 1RM to 315 1RM (with hex bar)
Squat: Didn’t have access to a good squat rack for a while but currently I do 185, 3x6
And overall my isolation exercises have gone up a bit, usually 10-15lbs
Currently eating 4000 calories a day (previously 3600, steadily increased because I stopped gaining weight) and 180-200 g protein, I’m running PPL six days a week. I’m not sure if it’s just body dysmorphia or if I’m fucking something up, but any advice would be greatly appreciated!
