DEXA scan number 4
A further 6kg lost since the last scan 6 weeks ago.
Some bad news was 2kg muscle loss but I know why. I cut way back on creatine.
I had a cold for 7-9 days so didnt train or take creatine but was still in deficit. Then when I started training again I did not take creatine on non training days, thats 2-3 per week. On top of that some days I forgot to add it to my drink.
All up that means of the 6 weeks I did not have creatine for 3-4. This does explain a 2 kg drop in mass.
Hope so anyway as I am continuing to the bitter end, the fat must go. Loading creatine hard to regain any loss.
Body fat was 28% but if I claw back 2-3 kg with the creatine then its down to 26-27%.
This means I can start a once per week carb load and i shall. I do not want muscle loss at all.
I will deficit down to 19-20% bodyfat then begin lean bulking. End goal 14% bodyfat. Preferably at 100kg but there will be some muscle building to do.
