changing up macros for first show

[haseki]

hey guys I am 170lbs and 5’6’’ and around 11% body fat. I am going to be doing my first show in the next 3 months and I need to get into top shape. Training 6x a week and doing my daily fasted cardio so far. My question is on my macros. Currently I am cutting hard and am at 2000 cals with 200g protein 150g carbs and around 30-40g fat. Is this a good macro strategy?

A key point is too many change what is already working just cos. Vs staying with that. Change only what DOES NOT WORK

I would try to cycle your calories. That would work better than trying to really fit a square peg in a round hole.

Why aren't you working with a coach? It's very important, especially for your first show.

Bros. Most people react, good to high protein. But not everybody. So you got to experiment.

I would go high protein, maybe 200 to 300 g. Push the protein up a little bit. 200 g might be on the low end.

Very exciting to be doing your first show.
And training six times a week, you want to make sure you're definitely running your support supplements.

I think your Macros look pretty good, especially at your size.
Focus more though on quality of the food.
