one bicep "curve" bigger than the other one by a lot any help how to even them out?


Work the smaller one extra. So on biceps day, dedicate an extra 5 sets to that arm. In addition, you can also throw in another 10 sets of biceps for that arm on legs day.

Hey Raynor :)

Is cardio required on a cut?

Thanks.


Short answer no.

Long answer...

On a cut you require several things: less calories in than burned, generally higher physical activity level than usual (5-6 times a week for 1 hr a day), and generally lower carb intake.

Do you need actual cardio? not really. Does it help? yes.

The maximum benefit is to do...

6 days of exercise....1 hr of weight training followed up immediately by 20-30 mins of HIIT.

also morning fasted cardio helps as well....basically the higher the activity level, the more calories burned, and thus the more fat loss.


make sure to keep protein intake high though.

Alright then, thats what id use well its basically the bulking diet you posted but

Meal 1 - 3 whole eggs + 1 cup oatmeal + 1 large serving of fruit (any type)
Meal 2 - 2 slices whole grain bread w/ 4-6 oz sliced low-sodium meat (turkey/chicken/ham)
Meal 3 - Protein Shake (any brand, make sure to get approx 40g protein) + 1 large serving of fruit + handful of mixed nuts
Meal 4 - 1 large chicken breast or lean steak + 1 cup brown rice + large serving of veggies + black beans
Meal 5 - 1 can of tuna + whole grain crackers + mayo/mustard + veggies or salad
Meal 6 - 1 cup cottage cheese + cinnamon + mixed nuts

For the meal 5, can i replace the crackers for like a whole bread slice
and which meal youd suggest for post workout? What to replace black baens with on 4th meal


Shit, sorry i meant Pre workout meal.

YES! those are all done in ONE gym session lasting approximately 2-2.5 hours. This is for massive volume gains and it is not for the weak or occasional lifters. If you want to see amazing progress, follow that plan to the T


referring to that hypertrophy plan, could you split up into 2 sessions for 1 body part each? so you do chest at 2pm for example and then bis at 7pm. Would it be less effective to break it up this way?

I just read the hypertrophy plan you posted, looks awesome and ill try tonight for leg day and ill continue off keto. Excepting GZ results. if i understand correctly its
1st set, warm up, 15 reps low weight
2nd - first real set, 10-12 med- weight
3rd. - 2nd set, heavy 8-10
4th, 3rd set, 85% of your 1rm ( if you squat 405 youll put around. 345), rep til failure- 5-10 sec break and do it til failure again
5th - 4th set, Same as third, 345 till failure , 5-10 sec break, til failure again ---- not sure on this one, am i correct
6th - 5th set, 225 squat, until failure.

Thats correct?
ALso for leg day, whatd you recommand instead of hip abductors and adductors, gym doesnt have any.

You are correct, that is how to do the hypertrophy plan properly.

Instead of the hip work, just substitute more lunges.
