how does that look?


My cutting will be the same meals expect I will lower the calories 500 under maintaince. I just have a few questions

1. what do you guys do about clothes I mean if your going up 10-15 lbs a few months a year than cutting down 10-15 lbs a few months of the year how do you still fit into your clothes??

2. Do you think it is ok to bulk 3 months than cut 3 months and maintain 6 months than repeat that cycle year after year?

Thank you for any help

you're going to eat those same 8 items for a year straight? good luck
