Hey all,
I've been cutting since January 1st and seen decent progress in terms of definition/muscle retention (roughly 200lbs/ ~15-16% bf to my current 180lbs/ ~11-12%) However, I hit a plateau that I can't seem to break through no matter what I do. My supp stack for the past few months are as follows:
January: OL Bloodshr3d/Forslean (one hell of a combo), fish oil, PES high volume pre, OL Endur3+ post workout, creatine hcl
February: OL Bloodshr3d, PES Shift, fish oil, PES High Volume pre, OL Endu3+ postworkout, creatine hcl
March: OL Assass1nate/Sup3r 7/Sup3r Shred, fish oil, stim pre, OL Endur3+ intra workout (switched the timing), creatine monohydrate
Current month: OL Assass1nate/Sup3r 7/Sup3r Shred, fish oil, stim pre, OL Endur3+ intra workout, creatine monohydrate
*just to clarify, I time all of my carbs around my workouts, equate the carbs in Endur3+ into my macros and generally do about 15-25 min of LISS/HIIT cardio a day. Will be switching from Endur3+ to Scivation Endure within a couple of days due to the sick Nutraplanet Easter sale.
Looking back on this cut, the first thing I can say is that I should have saved the fat burners for later in the cut so they were more useful in a situation like this, but hindsight is always 20/20 i suppose. My main goal is to get to 10% bf or lower, but as stated previously, this plateau is stalling hard. Figured I'd call in the reinforcements and inquire with the experts on how you guys would approach this.
Currently, I have been running a 75g fat, 140g carbs, 190g protein macro ratio and upping my carbs 1-2 days a week to 200-280g whenever I feel energy dwindling or look flat. Also i have a bunch of supps in my stockpile that I can utilize when my current stack ends:
3 Ignit3
3 Forslean
1 Sup3r 7
1 Sup3r Shred
2 Tr1umph
I was thinking of either taking a month off from supplements other than pre workout and my intra workout/ fish oil, taking a month or two off from fat burning compounds and taking Tr1umph for both months to try and reset my body, or just sticking with the cut and stacking Ignit3/Forslean/Tr1umph for the next two months and then entering a recomp. I've been debating hopping on my first hormonal cycle (Sup3r epi elite) but I've been putting it off because I want to see how far I can go naturally and don't want to substitute 100% knowledge of my body and the way it works with a "crutch" (for the lack of a better term) that will only help me momentarily and leave me where I left off: not 100% sure of what to do/where to go
I was thinking of hopping on something like alphamax for a test boost, but I'll leave that to you guys to suggest.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated and thanks for taking the time to read through my lengthy post. Thanks a lot guys/girls
