So I just started my first cut phase ever. I'm doing under 1800 calories at the moment. Eating pretty well and I cut it close each night. I'm an athlete and train excessive... Is 1800 calories not enough? Even thouhh im cutting or is that okay?

Like I said I'm 6'4 230-235 lbs. and I fit that frame very well except for definition .. Which is obviously what I am going for now

I'm around the same size - 6'5" 255-260. Currently cutting and eating 1700-1900 a day.

Edit: We will see how it goes.

How's your cut going? And how's your frame? So I guess it's a solid nunber to workwith

Seems like you both need way more . At my lowest of 163ish pounds I was just getting to 1900.

Why would you say that? I'm looking to learn more about cutting. I'm a nutrition major and I've only learned on the recommended diet an shit thus far

Also, could U explain what macros means? And how I should find these? Thanks

You're a nutrition major and you don't already know what macronutrients are ? I learned in one semester of a basic nutrition class.

Just go under the stickies and use the fat loss guide by lightman. But bodybuilding.com had a good breakdown on macros

Well I obviously know what it means. I meant like how you know and more in depth. It's this division between fat carbs and protein.. I only took one class thus far. So stil have a lot to learn

Well I won't go in depth as you should learn shortly or you can google it but at your weight and height you should be eating much more . I just started my cut and I'm 6'1 190 lbs and I'm eating 2300 ish cals

How's that going? Any profess on pics?
