I have been trying to lean down for 8 months now, I am 5'10'' 185lbs about 15% BF (not 100% sure on exact %) and am trying to get down to about 9 or 10% for the summer. I am eating 2.300 calories, 180-190 grams of protein, 64 grams of fat, and 165-215 grams of carbs (depending on my rest day and if I did cardio). I am currently doing a 3 day split being Chest/Bis/Tris, Back/Shoulder/Traps, and Legs. I train each group twice a week and train the muscles in the order listed. I do 4-5 workouts for each muscle group with a burnout after, I do about 30-40 secs of rest between sets. I know you aren't supposed to see much gains if any at all while leaning down, I feel as though I have seen some strength and size gains in my arms and back, however my chest seems to being staying the same or even getting weaker. For example, I will try 4 sets of 8 on bench and get 7 or 8 on the first set, but then each following set drops by one or two reps each time or I have to lower the weight for the last set sometimes. I not sure why this is happening. I am trying to not totally trash my body in my workouts because I do play college baseball and am in season so I need to be able to perform in practices and games. I was planning on trying the cheat and recover workout after the season but am thinking about starting it now, as I have been lifting for 5 years and I feel like my body will respond well and will be able to still recover for baseball, it might also be time for a routine switch as I have been doing the same split for about 4 or 5 months. I am not sure if I need to change my calorie/macros, my workout, or something else? Sorry for the long message, I just wanted to lay out all of the info.
