25 pds

[Mattman77]

I want to drip 25 pds to get to 260. I have a meet coming up at the end of August. ( Benchpress). Not to lose strength. What's the best way? I do cardio 4 days a week. I have both my hips replaced so it makes me very sore to run like that. Any suggestions? Thanks

the only way to drop that much weight and not lose strength would be to do it very very slowly.

but lets be honest there is no way to do it without losing SOME strength. hence why in powerlifting there are weight classes.

the benchpress is the lift most effected by your bodyweight loss/gain...
if you said squats or deads i would say you could do it, but you will lose at least a little on your bench- that is unless you are running a cycle... that changes everything...

It can be done, but like others said it must be done slowly. I lost 30 lbs over the course of about 4-5 months and actually ended up stronger at 30 lbs lighter....all with no anabolics.

Keeping protein very high is essential also
