i ran into an old buddy at the gym a while ago who told me that i shouldnt be cutting the carbs until im closing in on single digits bf%, that my carb ratio should be higher than my protein intake. i think he broke out the percentages somewhere like 50%carbs, 30%protein, and 20%fats.

im about to go read through my log on the tips you provided in there, but i keep hitting a point where im just wanting to throw in the towel and say screw it. honestly though thats not my mentality, but i cant help thinking im beating a dead horse, and the only thing that keeps me continuing this futile battle is the fact that i want to figure this shit out.

the best percentage ive reached on bf is 12.5%, my goal is 10%. i took a few weeks off for marriage, honeymoon, and then a dam infection so i dont know what im sitting at right now, but if i had to guess i would say maybe 16% @ 205lbs. if you have some time and are interested in guiding ole nips with some more advice let me know. i may start a new log.
that breakdown he gave you is cookie cutter and most of the time while natty will not help you in your muscle retention goal as you drop weight. notice i said weight and not body fat? some people do really well with a higher end carb plan (rare) and some do better with a higher fat plan. you have to find the one that works best for you and your goals and how you feel. quick fix for you would to get nasty and go keto for about 30 days if you need to drop the bf super quick. if not then start with 1.5g -2g of pro per pound then .5-1g of carb per pound and fats should be .5-.8g. that will get you moving back down again but you have to stay tight with it. if you want to go low and slow then go back to the carb cycle i set you up with and keep training the way you were training. being natty doesnt mean you cant hit your goals but it is going to go quite a bit slower. jump on a plan and when you stall out throw in a good fat burner like incinderine or something like that to crank it back up.
