[QUOTE="Milad Zadeh, post: 95250, member: 3210"] I’m sorry to tell you this but working abs ain’t gonna solve ur problem. Now I’m not saying U shouldn’t work them but as long as fat covers the area they won’t be visible. Your calories at 1800 are prob too low! I don’t know your specific stats (height, weight, etc) but I would suggest you reevaluate them. I’m currently on TRT/HCG and thyroid meds just like you. I went from 155lbs to 172lbs in about 6 months. How? Nutrition and hard training!! The low carb/keto won’t get you far. You NEED energy in the form of a fast accessible source which are best through carbs to push through those hard work out sessions.why? So that you can build more muscle. The muscle in return acts as a free fat burner because it requires energy to maintain itself and that will come with protein synthesis. I’m currently at about 2800 calories and consume about 1.3-1.4 grams of protein per pound of body weight and about 378 grams of carbs. I’m around 12-11% body fat (abs are visible) and yes most of that is also around my waist area that’s how some of us hold fat genetically (sorry but it’s the truth) but I can easily get rid of it by slightly lowering my caloric intake. However I won’t because I wanna continue building muscle and that requires a caloric surplus. You’ve tried your method for 6 months now switch to a new method. But if u do don’t be aggressive and jump straight to high amounts. Every 3-4 weeks increase by about another 100-200 calories and watch the mirror and scale. We call this a lean bulk and it takes time. As you get more advanced it becomes even slower. It’s a marathon not a sprint. Weigh yourself in the mornings after u take a shit and preferably before u eat to keep track of ur progress. Also time to properly brake down the muscle. Train at least 5 days a week maybe even 6 if u have time. High volume works great for ME. About 6 excersices per muscle each at 4-5 sets. Stick with hypertrophy rep range 8-12. Use everything in ur arsenal to burn the muscle. Heavy weights/ slow eccentric / metabolic brake down (hold muscle in concentric portion to contain blood supply) etc. look them up on YouTube. I should mention I do 0000 cardio. I maintain my body fat levels through ligting weights with medium to high intensity. So around 60-90 seconds rest between sets. If you wanna do cardio do high intensity (HIIT) and slow paste they both serve a purpose, but no more then 15min max. Alright my fingers r getting tired from typing Good luck [/QUOTE]
