Starting at 83 kg skinny-fat with no experience, my goal was simply to get big. I spent two years aggressively bulking to 107 kg before cutting back down to 85 kg, dropping from a 36-inch to a 32-inch waist. Alongside the body transformation, my strength skyrocketed: bench from the empty bar (20 kg) to 135 kg, squat to 180 kg for 5, and deadlift to 210 kg with strict form. During the cut, I locked in my nutrition at 1,900–2,000 calories with 190–200g of protein, ran a 5-day PPL/UL split, and hit 10k–12k daily steps. My biggest takeaway is that I should have prioritized protein and controlled the bulk better from day one. While stubborn lower belly fat remains, I’m continuing until I hit visible abs. If you’re skinny-fat, prioritize protein, train hard, and don’t fear gaining weight to build a real foundation.
