If I want to focus on building my legs and getting them bigger, should I stick to the MAPS Anabolic program as followed or modify it?
I stopped working with a coach when I was around 188lbs and felt pretty lean and strong. I was struggling to hit workouts consistently and often overeating outside the diet. I then did full body workouts following MAPS Anabolic, got strong, and continued eating to put on size. For the last 4 weeks, I’ve been doing push-pull legs for 4 days a week and getting pretty strong again as I get back into shape. I’ve been eating around 2900-3000 calories per day, and now I’m 202lbs. Being this weight feels strange to me. My goal was always to get bigger and leaner, but now I don’t hear compliments anymore, and I’m second-guessing myself. I don’t know if my perception is off or if I need to tighten up on my diet or routine. What should I do?
