I'm not sure should I continue cutting or I should stop for now a while. My current weight now should be 85kg, which is still a little overweight for my height.

I'm starting to feel that I lost more muscles than fat, and the fats are getting thicker. I need to gain more muscles now. My main concern is my chest, abs and back. I will still do cardio, maybe for only 10 - 15mins, as warm up.

I don't want later my body look like crap. When I sit down, I could see the thick fats around my waist and stomach area, look pretty awful. Very stubborn fats.

Need to do a lot of abs workout.

I don't know why the hell am I getting this shit, because I don't skip meals and I eat clean food, 4 - 5 meals per day. I train hard, get enough rest, drink enough liquid. It's like almost perfect.


Please advise.

This can't be the problem. I don't have carb for lunch and dinner. Breakfast I have 2 slices of wholemeal bread and oat, that's all for carb. I take enough amoutn of protein daily.

I do cardio 5 times a week, 30 minutes.

My arms and legs are pretty tight already, can see muscles, veins are popping out around my shoulder area. My chest, back and abs not so soon.

My upper back is lean, middle back onwards... sad.gif

Many people told me to stop cutting at 85kg, but I want to cut down till at least 80kg.

Well, when I'm standing I do look damn freakin' nice (not trying to what), squating down is still ok, like most people have fats around their waist, but when sitting down on a chair, WTF?! It's only when sitting down.

I think I won't be doing cardio that often anymore for now. Maybe twice per week, 30 minutes. I also work out in the morning, some fat loss workouts. About 30 minutes too.

I know it takes time to get rid of the fats, but I'm not expecting this kind of result at the moment.

So I will be doing less cardio and more weights. I need to do twice at least for back, abs and chest workout.

For now I wanna focus more on my back, because I always tarak feel the koyak orgasm, that's why. Once the back is tight, then I'll move on to the abs, solely abs. My chest is there, nothing to worry much. But still need to flatten it a little.

Once all tight, then I kasi cut again.

I wanna cut all the way to 80kg, but I'm afraid the fats becoming even thicker than before. Now isn't that bad.

I do only treadmill cardio.

careful of hidden carb. Cutting must be not too low and low enough for fat reduction. Also don't stay in caloric deficit too long or your metabolism will go down and you need to either reduce your calories or perform harder cardio. Maybe you should give it some time. Sooner or later you will see your six pax flex.gif

This is what I eat daily

- half boiled eggs
- whole meal bread
- oat
- milk
- banana
- apple
- oranges
- chicken breast
- steam fish
- tuna
- high fiber biscits

I eat damn clean, rest enough, go to bed at the right time, train hard... But getting shitty result. I do gain a lot of muscles, but I'm losing muscles too around my waist and back area. My arms are fine, very fine. Nothing to biatch about.

I only know that I lose more muscles than fat.

zeist, er... i mean what type of cardio? high intensity? low intensity? how long is ur warmup / actual workout / cooldown? whats ur heart rate when doing the activity
*
I do 3 - 4 mins walk at 6.0km/h, then jog at 9.0km/h for 5 mins, for 30 minutes. I don't check my heartrate. But highest was around 19x. This is just average intensity, I don't do 12.0km/h anymore.

I've decided to cut down until 80kg before I stop.

Perhaps you're running on too much a calorie deficit?

Perhaps you should try adding a little more carbs, I suggest pasta.

Muscles don't grow on protein alone, carbs play an important role in adding and maintaining muscle.

I do eat carbs but very small little amount. Pasta is good for slow digestion, and is a good carb. I need to adjust my food intake again.
