Dang dude 💪💪 

Thanks, I'm glad I did this comparison because when I cut hard, I always feel small and weak. It plays with your head. This will help me focus on the goal. 

Until the mirror depresses me too much or I hit 180. Whichever comes first lol. And yes, strength follows suit. Pound for pound I should be a bit stronger though so idc. Strength is a bonus. 

Beautiful smile -Diablo  

Noticeable difference even for me who notices nothing. I'm as observant as Lois Lane. 🥺💪🏼🏋‍♂️🤩 

Thanks! My jowls are more shapely.:P 

It is a noticeable change and it’s the face that is the most obvious. Keep flexing 💪🏽brother 

So with this cut, you are say in two weeks you’ve leaned out 11 pounds? 😳 

Nice leg definition 💪 

I notice a bigger smile and better posture in the 2nd pic. You are happier! 

Congrats 

StormsGirl, the cut started that long ago, the pic was from the same bodyfat but it was after a little bit of a cheat day so my actual weight was probably closer to ~202 or so. I'd say about 8 pounds. 

When you are cutting do you choose leaner meat cuts and reduce fat intake? How much of a calorie deficit do you go in for a cut cc to bulking? 

Visible improvement. Good job!  

Yes, less fat and a greater protein to calorie ratio. I don't usually do this but I'm getting a late start so my calories are pretty low but protein is high. I'd say at least a 1k cal deficit. 

I want to do the bulk and cut method when I get healthy cuz I have muscles when I flex but not when relaxed and it really bugs me. I'm looking to my bodybuilder fs friends for help when that time comes. You look great in black th pics btw, but happier in 2nd one. 

ooooo 

Man I tried the steep deficit, and I went from benching 265x6 to 245x6 😂 and I was having the shakes walking the pups 

I know, cheese, it's sucks. No shakes yet but definitely feel small and weak which is why these pics help. 

Thanks, everyone. Diana, you sure do! I'll help where I can.
