how many weeks out should i start dieting?

[max_payne]

well your already pretty damn lean.. i would say 15-16 weeks out so i agree with dahurt

have you ever had someone help you with a contest prep?

yeah that i was thinking starting out 15 weeks out at 300g carbs/day and lowering week by week.There is a friend of mine who competes in Canada and he's giving me some advices. This is my first show and im lookin' for help here and there to get as much info as i can

Don't follow a straight macro split. Make sure to carb cycle.

you have great legs.. actually looking at that relaxed pic i would say start out 20 weeks

20 weeks ? seriously ? Why torture the fella when he is dialed in more now than some people on stage ?

Sorry ..and no disrespect...there is no way in hell he needs 20 weeks of contest preparation.

Don't take offense to it bud I didn't mean it in a bad way. In your relaxed pic your bf shows a little better. The slower you drop the weight the better for you. You start 20 weeks out to preserve muscle.

yeah im thinking to carb cycle last 8-10 weeks!Highest day on legs and back,medium day on chest,delts,arms and 0-50g carbs from greens on he day off.Since often im training twice a day i think it will be more easy to drop the weight and that i can use some few more carbs because im eating +400g-500/day now and still maintaining the bodyweight.plus last weeks on clen and t3
