I'd argue you that your solid logic is wishful thinking. Do you think Adarq would be jumping as high if he hadn't practiced and learnt how to jump efficiently first? Being in 100% perfect physical shape is great but it's absolutely useless for sports if you don't have the coordination to apply it in the correct way. Being honest man, and I know i'm ripping you right now - I'm hoping you don't take it too personally but it looks to me that you're making hella excuses - just being real.

You're wrong. The proper nutrition alone would make you lose fat. You need to keep lifting to maintain or build strength but nutrition alone would make you lose the extra weight you had. Again, i'd say you're relative strength is high enough to control your body weight and if your injuries are that bad you should maybe reconsider why exactly your putting yourself through this.

So what wonder happens when u do cardio? Does your body light a flame in your fat cells that magically burns them?

...


NO!

You just increase your daily caloric consumption. You could do the same with less food.

Cardio wastes muscle (even though Adarq will come in and say no) and in a cycle that focuses and peaking at max strength i don't think this is favourable!

I think enough people told you now that you were just lazy about your nutrition and u really just need to make a food log to keep track of your calories and macronutrients.
Cutting fat (especially at your leanness) is easy!

Failing to prepare is preparing to fail. If you don't know the macro-nutrient make up of your foods and you can't tell by eye how much they weigh you are not going to be able to manage your diet well enough to lose weight. I'm willing to bet my life you can't do that right now. That's why you need to keep a journal and learn about this shit. When you've learnt it's ok to use what you've learnt and apply it. Right now you can't do that. Anyway yo, best of luck dude. Do your thing and I hope it goes well but you can count one sceptic in me right here!

For the record MSEM will make your body burn through shit loads of fat in the recovery period.

just dumb. lol.

Don't hate me because I'm beautiful.

people just want to help you and you just act dumb...

I don't see the problem in logging your food intake. You log your training and even your medication (!).
One week of logging and then another one with adjusted kcal is enough to know how much you can eat. You could even invest one hour of preparing some meals on paper with the same amount of kcal. so you can just chose which one u want to eat and just make it according to your plan.

If you don't add stuff to it while it's cooking it shouldn't change very much at all. You shouldn't be frying shit if you want to lose weight aswell...a little bit of oil is ok but you need to be careful. Honestly dude, I think it's good your not taking this personally and you have a sense of humour about it so all i'm going to say is goodluck! Keep away from processed food. Eat as much meat and  vegetables as you can with some fruit in there aswell. Limit your carbs and fat to a moderate amount and you should be ok.

Well I'm not taking it personally because there's nothing to take personally. If I were to believe in nutrition I'd be "offended" Raptor is mocking nutrition as well (if I give a damn about Raptor in the first place). I mean, I'm crazy but I can still keep a good grip on things.

My idea with cardio is, first, that I suck hard at cardio and second, I might make the body switch to a more fat burning mode (make it choose fat as a fuel more than carbs). For that to occur, I need to lower the carb intake, lower the sugar intake to raise muscle insulin sensitivity and alter the hormonal response etc etc etc. Hopefully, that will do something.

Sure, this will happen by manipulating NUTRITION, yes, I know, but to count calories and do stuff like that? No sir. Too much for me. I'll eat less, exercise more, take in less carbs, eat less sugar, more protein etc, but never count calories. That would drive me more crazy than I already am.

If I do this, I still should get under 80 kg and lower body fat %.
