Where do I go from here after gaining 6 pounds through Anabolic phases 1 and 2 and starting phase 3? Should I follow the RGB and just go to permanence and aesthetic, then back to Anabolic? Do I need to cycle through more than 3 programs if I just want to keep adding muscle and losing fat? How do I get from 22% body fat to 12% body fat? I don’t care how long it takes; I just want to keep moving in the right direction.
I have a question about this episode FIX THIS When Training, and Watch How Your Workouts Improve | Mind Pump 1871 and this Muscle Growth Insights. I just finished phase 3 of the Anabolic program for the second time. This last week, I was in a small cut, reducing my caloric intake from 3700 calories to 3200 calories for the last five days. As I transition into the Symmetry phase next, should I go back to bulking while taking the week off?
I am about to do the RGB bundle (31 weeks total: 9 weeks in Anabolic, 12 weeks in Performance, and 10 weeks in Aesthetic) and would like to lose body fat (male, 5'10", 190-195 lb at 22-23% body fat) while simultaneously pushing my maintenance calories from 2400 to 3000. How can I use mini cuts and mini bulks through these programs to reach these goals or be on the way to reaching them? Can you provide a table?
