@paulotarsus If OP is male, it’s extremely unlikely he’s exhausted novice gains. He’s not trained hard enough to get those gains.

@flelsfdc Sounds great! Well done.

@bridgida Lift 3 times per week following an established full body beginner programme. Happy to help you choose one. Do some low intensity cardio 2-3 times per week. Rowing, swimming, hiking, whatever. Stretch if you feel you must, but you should be getting a good stretch from squats, pulls...

@flelsfdc Get on a hypertrophy focussed 5/3/1 programme and get some heavy compound lifts in while you cut. You’ll be fine. You’re not at a level where you need dozens of different lifts.
