Hey T-Nation i m 20years old guy carrying weight 67.5 emma skinny fat guy ii have lots of fat around my abdominal area i follow a very strict diet but still em not able to shred that muffin fat what should i do? a keto diet or just have my carbs intake around my workout ie preworkout and only in postworkout
What is your current diet like?
Having your carb intake around your workout is a good idea. Indigo-3G is a great option, it can help with fat loss in stubborn areas.
Hard to say without knowing much about you. Are you doing a strength training program or mostly just cardio?
generally my meals are
breakfast - 2-3wholeeggs+5eggwhites omlette ,10almonds
lunch chickenbrest250g+boilveggies+salad
preowrkout 70goats+1banana+nuts +5eggwhites
before workout 45mins (black coffee)
post workout protien shake +60goats +1 or 2 bananas +5G glutamine in oats
dinner fish200g boneless boil +veggies and salad
this is
my typical diet through the week days
i lift for 6 days one body part particular day and do cardio 5-10 mins aftr traning for 3 days that’s it

How many compound movements are you doing? Think squats, deadlifts, OH Pressing, chin-ups etc.
I would be getting on a pre written program that focuses on large, heavy, compounds. Squats will give you a larger metabolic debt than curls and crunches.
6 way bro-split not geared towards fatloss and generally only for very advanced guys, pick a fatloss program off this site. Upper/lower split or fullbody your best bet
At your age once you train hard and full body etc you will lean out very fast as long as you eat clean/no junk/sugary crap(which you seem to be doing). Carb timing is just the icing on the cake at this stage
Another young dude looking for the magic pill. A good work ethic in the gym and consistency with food will bring you steady progress. You shouldn’t need to carb cycle or fast or go extreme low cal or ketosis or go on a fancy liquid only diet at this stage.
Watch this vid. Great breakdown on the balance between food volume, calories and protein – which is what it’s all about when it comes to getting lean. There are no magic foods, but the closest thing to a magic food is one that is high in volume and protein, low in calories.
I think 70 goats would put me well over my daily calories, unless I was bulking of course.
Just kidding man, your diet looks solid. How long have you been CONSISTENTLY following that diet? What weight/fat loss have you seen during that span of time?
it’s not like everyday i go for 70goats it depends on my training like back nd legs are muscles which needs more calories … btw i follow my diet very strictly that i had mentioned above the problm is on sunday i always crave for smthng sugary food
