6’1”, 285lbs to 182lbs over 18 months.

On the final leg of my summer cut. Finally starting to take shape after 18 months of cutting and and maintenance cycling. I would cut until I noticed fatigue, strength loss, sleep issues and depression creeping in, then switch to maintenance for 4 weeks before returning to the cut.

This past month I’ve finally had to lower my cut calories to 2090, and added 2 high carb days twice a week. Trying to remove the final bit of fat from my lower abs for vacation in 6 weeks.

Numbers:
6’1”, 41 years old
285lbs -> 183lbs, 102lbs total lost

For the majority of my transformation I followed the following:

Cut: 2200 calories, 200g protein, 50g fat, remainder into carbs.

Maintenance: 2700 calories, 200g protein, 50g fat, rest into carbs.

Routine: 6x weight sessions a week with a focus on strength and mind/muscle connection, this was my most important tracking stat.

Supplements:

Zepbound for food noise control

Multivitamin

Legion pre / post workout w/ creatine
