Scared to Lose Weight?

Glad to hear Kevin :)

Tip eat a lot of fiber And proteïne togheter

[@MuscleEire]

Trust the process man, I've been where you are, multiple times 😂

[@Gigaflare8822]

When bulking: "damn, I'm getting fatter. My jeans are getting tighter and I feel like my stomach is growing." When cutting: "damn, I'm getting small and weak. My clothes are getting looser and I feel like my arms are shrinking." I love feeling strong and having a lot of energy when I'm bulking, but I hate feeling fat and feeling my waist growing and watching my face get rounder. When I'm cutting, I love feeling my waist shrink and watching my jawline develop, but I hate losing strength on my bench and stagnating on all of my other lifts.

[@timothymcnamara6037]

3 years later, but everything you just said... I fealt that brother👊

[@enriquevarela1902]

My life story…

[@Bigbiceps301]

I would recommend mini cuts and mini bulks

[@Bigbiceps301]

just cut to 10% percent then slowly Lean bulk from there

[@KingDayDayDay00]

You just have to trick yourself into liking to cut. Start looking for striations, get yourself pumped to do cardio while listening to music. Start getting excited about having more stamina and being able to do body weight exercises better. Look forward to eating and cooking healthy foods

[@AlexLeonidas]

Good point

[@leevikamarainen1493]

Awesome attitude :)

[@TheBanana202]

this is great advice. im 6'1 and after a few years of lifting i was always around 200-215 lbs but at mediocre bodyfat. I was really not used to cutting and at first it sucked but instead of giving up i focused on the positives, did bodyweight training additionally, watched my pullups skyrocket and at the end i could do a set of five muscle ups as compared to before where i couldnt do one. just deal with the strength plateau and focus on the positives.

[@WesleyWorkout]

It’s all about the psychology of the mind

[@chauvo2626]

Words bro

[@MilosevBosko]

I did a 5 month cut, very slow, I actually gained strength, because the 2 time a week training system is so good. I did lose initial strength, but once I re-ate some calories, all my lifts sky-rocketed. From 18% bf, with 2 pack abs, to 10% very lean, 6 pack.

[@jdevries404]

i am like 18%, i want to try a cut for the first time. I have been lifting for more then a year now. I want to take it very slow as you

[@MilosevBosko]

A few tips, track your food, don't undereat, or overeat, if you want a small deficit, slow, you need to track your shit - because 200-400 kcal, up, down is not much! Eat enough protein (enough, not 300 grams), eat enough carb to have energy to workout, and enough fat to maintain good hormonal status - if you eat a balanced diet, without dogmatic elimination of a whole macro, you will be all good on a 200 deficit, maybe after 5 months, you get some testosterone drop, like I did, but I wasn't eating enough fat at the time. LIFT HEAVY, and push yourself, MINDSET! HAVE A MINDSET THAT YOU CAN, AND WILL GET STRONGER! Good luck.

[@jdevries404]

Thanks for the tips, yea i was thinking of 10-12% because of the hormone levels

[@MuscleEire]

Milošev Boško great tips here. I'd add to that not to fall into the trap of doing excessive cardio. Surefire recipe for lower body strength loss

[@MilosevBosko]

Muscle Eire Yes!

[@siri0te]

Man in terms of stregth maybe you will lose in BP but in bodyweight exercises you will fly!!

[@AlexLeonidas]

Damn right! I've already started to see this myself, calisthenics is way easier when you're lighter

[@Bull3tzCF]

yea definitely haha i went from doing 5 chins at my bulk to 20 now lol

[@andrew-zr1pf]

1000 times better for sport too.

[@MuscleEire]

Definitely true, but for those of you who are bulking, make sure to actually DO the calisthenic movements to ensure you retain the ability to perform them as you gain 💪

[@zarifakhtab5116]

When I first saw this video a year ago, I thought it was filler video and simply regurgitated information. But now, after being in a lean mass phase and getting near a cut, this video was the exact talk I needed to proceed. Keep on speaking the truth man.

[@AlexLeonidas]

Glad it was helpful Zarif

4 year old video but I just have to say. Any time I’ve searched something that I think only applies to me or is a hard thing to find, you always have a video for me.

[@patrickbateman4541]

More like scared to bulk...

[@AlexLeonidas]

Hmm maybe I'll make a video on that too. Thanks for the suggestion

[@phillipswain4312]

I'm bulking right now and I've felt a bit self conscious having a bit more fat in the lovehandles but I know it's for the best. Can't get big without gaining some fat. I've been small for far too long due to being scared of being fat. one thing I took from this video is to remember that it's just temporary

[@kylekasak6760]

Yes please I need this video

[@kylekasak6760]

Patrick Bateman I’m shredded as fuck and look small in a shirt but when I take it off in the gym changeroom people stare. I’m currently running NE and making mad gains but I stopped bulking and got depressed, I need new motivation to bulk

[@cbappa2]

Thanks Alex these points are always good to hammer home and remind yourself that gains don't magically disappear if you have a plan in place

[@TasosZagos]

Alex awesome video. After coaching hundreds of clients on nutrition i have to say that the average athlete s 10% deficit is actually a 5 to 10% surplus when counted correctly. I always recommend cuts of 25 to 35 % deficits especially for mild fat to obese people.

Glad to hear homie

[@jaredfleshman4752]

Alphadestiny, i love the videos, keep them up. What you said about muscle memory was spot on. Last winter i started hitting the gym again after a few years since weight training back in highschool. I recently moved to the mountains in Colorado and stopped my horrible habit of smoking cigarettes. swelled up from 142 to 157. Im 5'6. I felt like all the work was paying off in such a short amount of time, i was getting strong. But really i was just stuffing my face full with as much food as i could eat. The 15 pound weight gain was mainly from fat. Maybe 3 to 5 pounds of it was muscle. So When spring rolled around i ended up getting a sprained right arm with massive bruising all from a skateboarding accident. Here i am, bummed out with no motivation to exercise at all, i lost my short lived gains and had just fat on me after 3 months of healing. I went from a Skinny's smoker to just...average. BUT i had what felt like a new pair of lungs and a new heart from being smoke free. I took it upon myself to explore the world of running and extreme cardio work. For six months i ran like a crazy mad man. I got myself down to 146 with 10% percent body fat. YET i still didnt have the muscle tone or strength i was yearning for. BAM its almost new years and i decided to join the gym again. All because your videos, they are informative, motivational, and have inspired me to get back on track. I am already feeling the benifits of weight training again, along with seeing improvements in my running too.

[@feritv.41]

Are you still at the gym after all these years???

[@dvdhuidobro]

Related to 3:10, I found that using a caloric deficit (in percentage) similar to your bf% works is a good rule of thumb. If you are 10% bf and want to cut, use a deficit near to 10%. If you are 30% bf you can get more aggressive and go for a ~30% deficit. And so on

[@vbalu9486]

the game analogy was so good,great video never be afraid to lose some size for the better gainz later on.

[@loading...6722]

To Alex I have just recently found out about your channel a week ago. I have been watching shit tons of your videos and have applied your methods and training style to my routine. I have been training traps for 2 years now and they have not been growing or have not got any serious DOMs the following day. I just tried rack pulls above the knee yesterday for the first time, and I haven’t felt (Muscle Soreness) pain like this in my traps ever! I have good feeling I am going to get YOKED quite soon. Thank You

AlphaDestiny whoa, reply to me to o great leader

[@DaChovies]

I am too, I like to have a chiselled face.

[@russelljimmies1789]

Gym Squad I think the trick is to eat as little over maintenance as possible with meticulous calorie tracking to gain weight really slowly over X amount of years, as opposed to smaller bulking / cutting cycles

[@remstesthd6784]

yes just 100kcal over maintenance is enough to get strength and muscle mass with a good training program.

[@TheCheese9]

Videos lately are on point brah, respect and good luck with ur cut

[@oscarriley9265]

The main fear i have with cutting is how i kind of just get this soft look when i really want that rigid look no flabbiness

[@Bigbiceps301]

You have to be patient yes you will look flat because ur glycogen stories are depleted so you have to wait it out till you get too ur desired leaness then you can eat at maintenance calories

[@theblindracer6364]

I've been doing a cut for around the last month or so. Started at 92kg and now around 89kg. I feel I've done it at a good rate, but I do feel I need to up my protein though. I'm just over 5ft 9 and around 20% BF and ultimately hope to get to around the 12% mark. Great information as always Alex.

[@charly40fication]

[@henrilambert3474]

I was waiting for this video for thousands of years

[@RDA8191]

The first 2-3 weeks of a cut is a mindfuck. After that, you really start appreciating the results

[@reconvultureking2544]

I've always been scared to cut. Finally filling in a small t-shirt (arms filling sleeve, neck filling collar, chest and upper back squeezing against shirt (thank you naturally enhanced)) was the highlight of 2017. I was terrified of cutting because of how big of a hit to my ego that would be. Looking small in a small t-shirt would've made me feel like a skinny twig. Now this video is what changed my perspective. I think the whole "you're gonna lose gains, you're gonna lose strength, etc." speeches other youtubers preach really gets into people's heads and placebo takes place. Thank you Alex for your perspective. Really made cutting a lot less intimidating lol

[@jimwalker7569]

Eric helms strat is to bulk for 4 months, gaining 6-8 pounds, then cut for 1, and lose 4-6 lbs. You gain 4 lbs of bodyweight over a 5 month period this way, while ending up heavier and leaner.

[@AlexLeonidas]

That sounds doable. I've also heard some other dudes who do micro cutting and micro cutting.

[@jakem2367]

Thanks bro. Just gotta power through lol. It’ll be worth it eventually.

How tf do hardcore endos like me control our big ass appetites? I feel miserable and permahungry every time I go on a cut. Would easily eat 3000+ cals a day if I follow my natural appetite. Please help

[@AlexLeonidas]

Megadose your vegetables, and increase your protein intake. That's hands down the best way to do it.

[@sammy778]

AlphaDestiny holy shiet that was quick, but veggies feel light af on my stomach and don't fill me up that well. Isn't there anything that can bloat me up and yet be light on the calorie side? Or maybe a natural appetite suppressant? Love your content, thanks a lot man

[@AlexLeonidas]

You know what, I'll make a video on appetite control. That should help you out brother

[@lIlIllIlIllIlllIllIIIIIIIIIlII]

Samarth Tandon isn't yoghurt like low calories (idk one I had at home had pretty low calories) plus fills you up? (+Protein) Make a shake or something out of it, or add fruits or whatever

[@jimwalker7569]

I agree with not going past a 20% deficit. The thing is, your maintenance will drop during a long enough cut, so you’d be taking 20% off of a smaller principal during a later part of the cut.

[@PrivTrd]

Great video, dispelling myths for natties, though I must say it is quite the opposite in my case scared to bulk. I did not know that for natt the muscle memory thing was such a factor, thanks for pointing this out.

[@MilosevBosko]

Cutting in summer is easy af. Basically I eat from morning to sleep, all day long, because when I'm bored I just stuff my self with veggies, bell peppers, cucumbers, I LOVE TOMATOES! But here in Serbia in Winter, there are really few good veggies. But yea

[@ededdy7604]

One thing people forget when they cut is that the shape you get when there isn't a lot of fat on your muscles makes you look bigger in clothes too. Some guy at my gym is lean as shit with decent size, when he wears a long sleeve t shirt he looks big af just because the shape of his arms is way more pronounced.

[@vegardarntzen8031]

Been bulking for five months now. Went from 135 pounds to 165 pounds. Planning on cutting for three months. Wish me luck!

[@Gspotdepot]

Just remember to cut down a little less than the bodyweight you desire, because once you start eating normally again, you'll regain all your water weight and refuel your glycogen storages. So for example if you wish to cut down to 155, go down too 150 because after you start eating normally you'll gain 5lbs in a couple days and fill your muscles up.

[@theveganlawyer2193]

I can tell you've been sticking to the boxing rounds every second day!

[@AlexLeonidas]

Yeah man, I'm LOVING it! It's probably the best conditioning work I've ever done next to swimming. You get a really good workout and sweat like crazy, plus your muscles get tired from it too. Heavy bag work in particular is very tiring. I do 2-3 minutes on, 1 minute rest.

[@HomicidalDavid]

I lost 30 pounds (193-163) a year ago and my clothes still fit similar but I was WAY leaner. It was an experience for me cause I never went on a diet for 4-5 months in my life cause I was just skinny as a kid. The problem I had with losing weight was not muscle loss, but being hungry mainly. I do think losing 6-8 lbs a month is good to maintain most muscle & strength. Of course, it depends on where you start.

[@nomercy8989]

Didn't think I would ever see a cutting video from you Alex.

[@cguns9893]

[@AlexLeonidas]

[@chrisnewtownnsw]

beer and abundant whole foods vs abs, cravings and enhanced aesthetics. I respect Alex's experimental side but for me personally it's a no brainer for the first option.

[@XSimboJonesX]

Spot on as usual!

[@DNO_Fitness]

I'm looking to go from 16% down around 12%. I'm confident I can maintain most of the strength I've built by taking a slow approach with a goal of 1-2 pounds each week. I put most of my effort into diet, lowering carbs and increasing healthy fats on days I'm not training or days I'm not squatting/deadlifting. Cardio performed with high intensity too often will eat away at muscle and strength in natural lifter. It's much easier to omit 3oo calories from food than to expend it through exercise.

[@pushthroughthewall3396]

Well I had already let go of my ego since I have decided to stop lifting for a few months and am working on stretching and correcting my posture and getting good shoulder mobility, but this isn't the first time I had to stop lifting, and I easily got back to where I was.

[@thecardguy]

Hey Alex, haven’t watched the video yet so you might have mentioned it, but let’s say I’m around 20% bf, should I still cut even if I haven’t reached the strength standards? If I keep bulking I would hit them in the next few months. Thanks!

[@AlexLeonidas]

Entirely up to you Evan. 20-25% is the highest you should be IMO. I either bulk a tiny bit more, run a maintenance, or cut. You must decide what is most important for you brother.

[@thecardguy]

AlphaDestiny aright thank you very much

[@ArticleReaderRandy]

Evan Alberto yes 20% is fat as fuck

[@AintDyin999]

[@reezis1619]

Am I the only one that prefers cutting over bulking? I get so much more done during my day when cutting. You can cut and get enough protein on 2 meals + 1 shake a day. Opposed to bulking where you need to eat 5-6 times a day. I can concentrate on my studies for hours without thinking about my next meal and eating every 2 hours.

[@xof2642]

Alex can you do a video on your what your daily meals look like, now that you're cutting and incorporating a whole food, plant based diet? I'm cutting out meat and dairy out of my deit also and would be good to get some tips from you. Thanks and keep up the great work as always. xof.

[@DaltonHallett]

You lose strength on a cut in the same way you seem to shrink, but as soon as you get your food intake back up it all comes back really fast

[@AlexLeonidas]

Pretty much, people don't realize how fast the strength comes back

[@jonatanolsen37]

I travel alot, and i always loose muscle on longer trips, due to eating less and lifting less. But guess what? After around 1 month at home i have regained my strength and size.

[@sherbilaboaoksa67]

Make a video about bodyfat misconceptions and what certain bf percentages look like

[@darthghitza8037]

I usually bulk for 4-6 months and then cut for 4-6 weeks. I do this because I hate doing long cuts... I hate cutting... and the only way to avoid long cuts is to do shorter bulks. I recommend this to everybody: 4-6 months of bulking is enough to put on some muscle without putting on a lot of fat. It makes your cuts shorter and also keeps you in decent shape all year round. I usually stay between 12 and 18% body fat. As soon as I hit 18... I stop the bulk and cut down to 12 again. Then I repeat the cycle.

[@ncongnolancong]

During high school, I was always thinking about cutting. When I did I was super skinny and weak. So now I've been doing a smart bulk and will continue to do so throughout this year. I've been noticing my energy going up, happiness and focus is up, and my strength is shooting up very fast. I think you should only cut if you're VERY fat or you have a solid strength and muscular base to do so.

[@taylorhill8001]

Great video, howdy from the American west, could you do some more videos on different workouts, maybe like your week in workouts?

[@Hersovyac]

Nice video man, so true about leverages, when I was dieting for shows or shoots I was loucing the elbow and knee thickness at bottom of presses and squats and was feeling a lot more fragile and unstable there. Moment I refeed its there again even if not that quite like in maintenance. BTW, your video is in a playlist next video is "What your poop say about you". Can you explain please XD

[@zukodude487987]

I have been cutting for the past 4 months and lost 10kg, now i am doing a short term 2 week bulgarian bulk trying to put 60lbs onto my max deadlift, i am expecting to gain a kilo of fat within the 2 weeks, but i can burn it off within a week and then resume cutting for a month or two.

In all honesty, right now is the perfect fucking time to start cutting. Way easier to maintain strength, and muscle with a slow 5 to 6 month cut. Rather than a quick 2 to 3 month cut with a severe calorie slash, loss of strength, and the crazy hunger that comes along with it!
