[QUOTE="TransitPoloce, post: 101836, member: 14550"] Hey Guys I'm looking for some advice on training. I'm 32 and I've been going to the gym for the last 10-15 years, although not always very consistently. I feel like I've made very minimal progress in this time at all. I've always been skinny but had a high body fat percentage and store fat very easily around my chest and stomach. I've tried various routines over the years, starting with Starting Strength / 5x5 style routines that focused on heavy compound lifts combined with eating in a caloric surplus to gain weight. I ate a lot to increase my strength and eventually abandoned this because I ended up just getting fat from it. It seems to be a recurring theme with my training, I will follow a routine for 3-6 months, get some results early on but eventually stall or gain too much fat and then give up and lose any results I had. I've tried a lot of stuff: heavy compound lifts with low reps, crossfit, boxing/kickboxing, bodybuilding style routines but it seems my progress has always been so minimal or non existent that I just get discouraged and eventually give up and move on to something else. I feel like I have a lot of knowledge on training from all the reading I've done over the years, but embarrassed at the results I've gotten. Same with nutrition, I've tried most things over the years: Ketogenic diets, Paleo, Bodybuilder style high protein diets while counting calories strictly. I'm now on TRT and am probably in the best shape I've been in, but still feel like I should be in better shape for all the effort I put in. Any advice? I want to get to a low bf% and have a 6-pack for the first time in my life without losing any muscle. Unsure if I should be trying to gain muscle, cutting or just maintaining current weight. I am currently doing a 3 day Gym Split and 2 boxing classes a week. Am currently 78kg (172 lbs) 5'11. [ATTACH=CONFIG]4818[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]4819[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
