How much longer should i cut?
5’11, 33M. Started cutting end of December from ~183 lb. Current morning weight is around ~164–169 depending on post-cruise water/food weight, so I’m waiting a few days for that to normalize. Progress photos attached, including starting point.
Question: based on current visuals, how much longer would you cut before starting a lean bulk?
My goal is to get lean enough to start a long lean bulk and stay roughly 10–15% year-round. Plan would be to bulk around ~0.25–0.3 lb/week once I’m done cutting.
I’ve historically stopped cuts too early because I thought I was leaner than I actually was, so I’m trying to be more objective this time. I was losing around ~1.1 lb/week before a cruise/travel break. Considering another 3–6 weeks depending on how I look once weight normalizes. Training intensity stays high, volume moderate. I'd aim for 1.5lb/wk for the short cut window/
Appreciate any honest feedback.
