    If you have a coach I’d express these concerns to them and see what they say and then report back here if you want and then we can further help you without overstepping or contradicting their plan if they have a specific intention

    I would lose them lol
    You can try and see
    But for cardio I find the bike is the least impactful to legs

    I would personally remove direct cardio if body comp allows it for your prep timeline and just do low impact

    I’m curious – just using last year as example, what’s your macros and cardio in the depth of prep vs now peak off season?

    I have lol
    Just about the equipment you’re capable of having but all you need is a bench, bar, weights, rack and you can get big with the proper diet

    Sounds like you have a good plan bud! All you have to do is just track progress via weekly physique photos to watch body composition, track training progression and recovery, and make incremental increases to diet based on those needs!

    I would split the protein portions more evenly across meals
    Other than that things look fine I would focus on consistency and then any other changes from there will be based on the progress you’re making or not making on this plan
