First of all - the fat loss post, super guide PT 1, and daily routine are all great posts to reference and come back to. They've definitely helped me formulate current stack and routine. In the past week I started zone 2 cardio every other day, L carnitine, and 250g+ protein daily and already noticed significant difference.

Current - 29yo Male, 6'0", 205lbs, probably about 20-25% bodyfat. Decently strong and have muscle mass, but not "jacked" and have fat to lose.

Goals - Get to sub 15% BF, build more muscle, improve cognitive ability (said everyone ever).

Current Stack - 1g L-Carnitine 3-4x (taken with meals), 1200mg Fish Oil daily, Animal Pak daily (to fill gaps), 400mg Mag Glycinate (1H before bed), 200mg Theanine (1H before bed), Alpha GPC and Chorella taken randomly like 1x a week.

Wondering your thoughts on stack and just general advice to achieve more shredded look. Current macro goals 275g P, 138g C, 61g F, but usually fall a bit short on protein. Thanks!

If by falling short on protein you mean less than 200g per day, then you're wasting your time and need to change something. Dabble with different recipes until you find something you can prep quickly, eat often, and digest well and just run with that.

Animal Pak isn't a great multi vitamin for the money. Here's what I'd do:

Log your food on cronometer ( because you should be anyways) and find where the nutrient deficiencies still are

Try to resolve with food, but if not supplement with the individual nutrients in their best most bioavailable forms

Most of the stuff in that are unnecessary btw

Honestly the number 1 thing is patience. Get a DEXA scan. It will change your life. You'll be able to know exactly how much you need to lose and how much time it's going to take with simple calorie deficit math.

As fat as how to achieve a more shredded look? There's no secrets besides PEDs haha! Just get lean without losing your muscle (keep the protein high and weight training frequent)

Super helpful thanks for the long answer.

Yea in the past I would tell myself 150g P is good enough. Even just 2 weeks going near 250g P I've noticed a massive difference. Will try out what you mentioned and follow up when I hit 15% BF in next few months.
