I'm doing a reverse diet from 1700 to 2500 calories. I'm currently at 220 pounds, 5'11", 36 years old. My goal is to reach 3000 to 3400 calories. I sleep about 6.5 to 7 hours a night; I go to bed to get 8 hours of sleep but end up waking up multiple times a night, tossing and turning due to sore muscles. My job requires me to stand on my feet for 8 hours, loading parts into a machine. Sometimes when I get home, I'm so tired that I have to force myself to work out. I'm currently following MAPS Anabolic 3 days a week.
I'm a 5'11", 220 lb, 36-year-old male trying to reverse my calorie intake from 2500 to 3000 calories slowly, increasing by 100 calories every two weeks. I've been doing MAPS Anabolic 3 days a week, and on my off days, I walk for 40 minutes. I work 8 hours running a CNC machine, where I mainly stand and load parts. I sleep about 7 hours a night. Should I continue with MAPS Anabolic or should I switch to MAPS 15 Minutes?
I'm currently on the 3rd week of the pre-phase of MAPS Anabolic. Should I do MAPS for 15 minutes along with 10,000 steps a day during my reverse diet, and then start MAPS Anabolic once I hit my goal or start to feel better? Or should I stick with MAPS Anabolic 3 days a week that I'm doing now?
