    I’ve been a bodybuilder for six months and this is my take. The diet is big. Remove excess junk from your food and focus on eating nutrient dense foods. I go hard and measure all my food in grams so I have consistency with my food. Do you have to do this monk level BS? No but I’m pushing myself for health reasons and want to see where it will take me. If you can do four to five meal breaks per day. You just eat a lot less per sitting. It helps keep hunger pains away and I never feel like I’m starving or so full I’ll burst.

    If you find your caloric needs per day you can slowly enter a deficit. KEY. Deficit is not starving yourself. So don’t think you can do 1/2 your daily needs and magic will happen. Something will happen but not what you’ll want in the end.

    Be safe. Be smart. Good luck.
