Like anything in life people often make a bigger deal and rely on anecdotal experiences more than necessary.

It's all basic science. Burn more calories than you consume and your body has to burn stored calories (mostly fat) for fuel.

Same with muscles. Stress to the muscles causes them to grow bigger in order to adapt.

The details of the workout plan don't matter nearly as much as actually doing something and staying consistent with it. That's what separates the ripped people from average.

Drink a lot of everclear. Oh do you mean the other kind of ripped?

Diet is the core. Research dietary approaches that aren't total BS. Find one with some scientific basis that aligns enough with your food preferences that you can stick to it long term.

Even a decent diet will get you ripped for 2 weeks max if you cannot drive yourself to stick with it. Consistency is huge.

I'd get a basic linear program (unless you're getting enough lifting where you're already intermediate level). Candito linear, Greyskull, the major ones all do the trick. Simple routines with a multijoint focus are your friend.

Cardio wise, that's another question of what you like. You can see benefits from shorter, intense work, longer, steady state work or a mix. The key here is some stuff you'll actually do. For me, it's high intensity, short interval. Both kinds will help.

You're a bigger guy period, so I recommend the basic linear strength program because a bigger framed dude has way more space to fill.

At that height, weight, and body fat %, I would not try to lose weight. Especially if you haven’t lifted before. Everyone’s going to tell you to squat and deadlift, but you’re not going to do that, because all you care about is aesthetics. Every mon and Thur, do barbell bench press, DB incline, press (Db or barbell) and close grip BP for 2 sets of 8-10 reps. For tues/fri, do pulldowns, rows, and Db curls.

6’6” and 255 with 25-30% body fat. Forget everyone telling you to cut. If you’ve never lifted before, start. Do you think you will look good at 10% body fat and 210#s at 6’6”? No. You will look anorexic. Do basic exercises twice a week.

We have similar builds. From 18 to 40 I tried various ways to get in shape. Even went so far as to run 5 marathons. But I feel like I’ve just now figured it out. Join Avatar Nutrition or som other macro program that has you eat lots of protein. Make your way over to the greyskull program thread. You’ll be a new man in 3 or 4 months.

kinobody

Greek god or warrior shredding program.

For diet, use this calculator and find your Marcos. Plug that into MyFitnessPal and get within 10%.

So in short, eat in a deficit when plenty of protein and get strong as frick.

Who says he has to cut to 10%? Even 20% body fat will be better then 25-30%.

Most important thing is your diet if you're going for looks. You can lift all you want and at your size you won't cut down if you eat whatever you want.

I would incorporate some distance running as well as it will help to trim down overall.

To get ripped diet is like 80% of the work. You will need to count calories and track macros.

Distance running is the least effecient way of burning calories and the muscle to fat burn ratio is shite.


OP just do what I said, run kinobody and hit your macros the calculator gives you.
