6 / 0I'm eating 200 kcal below maintenance, usually I burn 800+ kcal on lift day and on """rest day""" I burn about 600. Whenever I get cravings so strong that I genuinely can't resist them, I eat no more that whatever calories I burned that day, so I'm still under the maintenance so everything's good

3 / 0Hello I'm a 34 yo Male. 5'9, 195lbs down from 250. My goal weight is 175lbs. Since January I've been on the reddit fitness wiki dumbbell PPL amd have been decently consistent in running it 2x a week. I'm switching to a 5x a week M-F PPLPP instead of 6x a week due to a schedule change at work. I also walk for a hour every day after I lift.
I eat 2000 or less calories a day since I am still trying to cut but eat 140-160g of protein daily.
My question is: How much progress can I expect to make in 6 months of consistent lifting?
I lifted in my early 20s for a year or so but other than that I'm basically untrained.
I feel like I've made decent progress. My lifts are progressing for the most part and I've seen some muscle definition but I'm wondering what is realistic for someone like me?

132 / 24/Roon/ Running General>Advice for new runners
- Build up speed and mileage SLOOOOOWLY (start with 15 minutes, increase mileage at most 10% per week)
- It will feel like you're going slow, you are; don't worry about setting good times for a couple of months
- If you start to feel pain anywhere, stop and rest
- Don't try to copy what pros are doing. Do what feels natural
- Once you can comfortably roon 6 miles/10km, start thinking about a goal in terms of race distance and time, and look for a training plan for that goal (see below for suggested plans)

When I do workout next should I do it at lower weights than I usually do my routine or just go right back into it?

For salivating seagulls working towards a longer life and a better physique through meaningful hard-work, strategy, and dedication. This is not QTDDTOT, stick to questions on fat loss. Post height and weight when asking for advice.

1. Read https://physiqonomics.com/fat-loss/
2. Calculate your Body Fat Percentage: https://fitness.bizcalcs.com/Calculator.asp?Calc=Body-Fat-Navy
3. Calculate your TDEE: https://www.sailrabbit.com/bmr/
Remember to use bodyfat% and use Katch-McArdle Formula with sedentary settings or your TDEE will be too high.
4. Plan your weight loss: https://www.losertown.org/eats/cal.php
5. Track your nutrition with MyFitnessPal (better for packaged food), Cronometer (better for generic food/macros), LoseIt (great for both), or Waistline (FOSS).
>Now what?
Count calories, all of them.
Eat about 500-1000 less calories than your TDEE.
Buy scales, be accurate.
Learn to cook. Try to stick to lean protein and green vegetables.
Eat a lot of protein. 0.72g per pound of goal lean body mass.
Doing cardio, even just walking, will improve your health. There is no such thing as a healthy fat heart, but you can offset the risks.
Lifting weights will keep and gain muscle mass and lose fat much quicker. Not lifting results in the body eating away muscle AND fat.
Drink more water.
Read the /fit/ sticky: https://liamrosen.com/fitness.html
>DON'T
Eat refined sugars, they're terrible for you regardless of calories.
Eat processed foods.
Drink your calories (alcohol, soda, Starbucks).
Freak out over a weight loss stall. Plateaus can last up to three weeks.
"Reward" yourself. Cheat days cheat only yourself.

10 / 1Gentlemen. Are these a meme or can they be useful to me?
I'm becoming a dad in August and I want to work out more at home once my son is born.
I'm currently just doing some strength training at the gym.
170cm manlet, 80kg, 17% body fat
140kg deadlift
110kg squat
80 kg bench
30kg OHP
So pretty beginner stats. I was considering using a kettlebell at home once my son is born to just maintain my strength, maybe burn some more calories during a workout and to maybe lose some fat. Are kettlebells a meme? Are they worth getting into?
I don't have enough space at home to get a bench and some weights, I need to keep it lean.

Why is there this myth/lie that cardio is bad and that weights are all you need? So much bad misinformation is being spread about being "strong" that it destroys bodies.

4 / 1How do you overcome workout fatigue?How do you deal with workout fatigue? Not the physical exhaustion after exercising, but the mental burnout from the repetitive routine? The constant pressure to hit the gym, push your body, and chase an ideal physique that borders on body dysmorphia..it gets exhausting... On top of that, studies suggest that intense workouts can raise testosterone levels, which might actually accelerate hair thinning or baldness. It’s all starting to feel like a lose-lose situation.

I've tried a lot of strength training (calisthenics, barbell, kettlebell) and just can't seem to enjoy them at all.

61 / 12Are you watermelon maxxing, anon?I eat like a third of an entire watermelon every day. My shits have started to look like watermelon. I am so dependent on watermelon that I have watermelon redundancy. At any given time there are 2 watermelons in the fridge cold and ready, in case I open one and it's bad. I live with my mommy and if she cuts the watermelon wrong I get very angry. Sometimes she really brutalizes the watermelon and it fucks up my whole watermelon experience, so I've started buying 3 watermelons now. 2 for redundancy, and an extra one for her so she won't fuck up my good one. She then tells me I'm wasting food, but I tell her that it's the cost of doing business.
In terms of picking watermelon I've become quite the watermelon whisperer. I went to the watermelon bucket at the walmart and observed all the negros and how they pick their watermelon. Like the Lisan Al Gaib, I learned their ways as if I was born to them. The exterior should be a deep green, with multiple shades of green covering the full spectrum of light required to produce a complex, rich flavor. The sound after a knock must be "hollow", or resonate nicely, indicating the internal structure is tight and crisp, and not mushy that it would absorb the sound waves instead of reflecting them back. A deep creamy yellow spot is preferred on the bottom, it doesn't need to be too big but it must be there, that the watermelon was well supported in its growth. It must be high density and feel heavy, or there are air pockets and cracks on the interior that compromise the structure. There are also correlations with the stem which I am continuing to investigate, but the elders teach this bears on the size of the "grain" of the interior structure, where a dry and slightly withered stem is preferred to a wet and youthful stem. If we consider that the watermelon is made up of many interlocking pockets of juice, the "grain" is the size of these pockets. Smaller grain is certainly preferred, but a large grain may still be enjoyed.

3 / 0Did some HEAVY squats today (70kg x 5). I am properly and utterly SPENT. Might even treat myself to some Ben&Jerry's after that beast of a set
4 / 0Regrettably, I am unemployed at the moment. I don’t even do full workouts, just several sub max sets throughout the day whenever the urge hits me. The key is always leaving 2 to 3 reps in the tank.
1 / 0Why tf my hands are so veiny and cold all the time? Everytime I handshake someone since I was a kid they'd ask why my hands are freezing cold
12 / 2Guess who has never done any form of oblique work before and spent an hour of doing 12x10 to failure of various oblique and side core exercises..
I can't get out of bed..

0 / 0So I’m gonna make some progress in the 3 to 30 rep range provided I use full range of motion and work to failure?
36 / 4Would you rather have your goal physique with dyel strength or elite strength with a dyel physique?
0 / 0The calculator of bodyfat says I'm 13% bf, but I still have a layer of fat on my abs and love handlers, am I having unrealistic expectation or is the calculator wrong and I'm higher than that?

>live in this area where teenagers openly laugh at whoever they see
>be it jealousy or pure mockery without thinking twice
>enter McDonalds at night because I had nothing to cook with
>as I enter I hear loud laughing
>I turn to look at them
>eye contact
>they immediately stop laughing
>people in corridor to the toilet squash themselves to make way for me even though I am not spreading my arms or anything
It's kind of fun but at the same time I don't really crave being a bully or anything, do people just lack self esteem on a severe level? Did it happen to anyone else?

2 / 0So this is my push routine, is it OK?
4x8-10 bench
4x8-10 ohp
4x8-12 Iso lat inc bench
4x8-12 Iso lat shoulder press
4x15 lat raises
3x8-12 triceps cable pushdown
I add more weight when I'm completing 10 repetitions, or 12 for isolation, on two or more sets. Which usually brings me down to 8-9 repetitions again. Rinse and repeat...

7 / 0Is it possible to develop a sensitivity to glucose by not ingesting simple sugars over an extended period? I used to pound soda and cut it out completely just to eat healthier. Now, years later on a relatively low GI diet, if i drink a soda, eat a palm full of candy, or even eat some instant oatmeal or rice, I'll develop symptoms of low blood sugar about 2 hours later. My fasting blood sugar is normal so I don't think I have diabetes. Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this.

53 / 5Neck x-rayCan someone look at my X-ray?
I've also had a CT and MRI.
Bone spurs and some bulged discs, one is moderate. Got it done last fall, when should I get another?
I had an epidural steroid injection which helped some with the neck pain.
However, I have T1, T2 upper back pain pretty much all the time and don't know what to do about it. Tylenol ibuprofen and muscle relaxers help and sometimes tropicals
Been going to chiro and it has helped my posture but I'm still in pain.
Anyway if you got any experience with neck issues I would like to hear it, thanks.

34 / 0>He claims he doesn’t lift for women.
Lmao. Lmfao. Lol. Roflmao. Sure, you’re lifting because you want to be a based Aryan warrior, right? You’re lifting because of that Facebook tier Socrates quote? Because you want to look like Guts?
Just remember that NOTHING will make up for the fact that you sleep alone at night. NOTHING will make up for that fact that you haven’t had sex in years (or never).

>inb4 they weren't all like that
Yeah I get it, but at least SOME had to look like this, or the sculptors wouldn't have been able to make realistic statues in the first place. All the proportions are nearly realistic, whereas if nobody looked like this you'd probably see anomalies like Michelangelo's coconut boobs or weird steroid abs type exaggerations.

26 / 0GOMAD Diet: Should You Try It?I was wondering whether or whether not to follow GOMAD. You drink a gallon of milk a day which is roughly 4.5L of milk. You do this every day. In a month you gain about 11lbs which is close to 5kg. This is for very skinny people who can’t gain weight. This provides a lot of calories and protein. Approx 2,500 calories and probably 120g of protein. You still need to eat 3 meals (each 500 calories) alongside the milk.
However, you will be consuming excess sodium and calcium which is very very bad for you. Also, this plan works properly when you do a heavy lifting workout. Those extra calories will be stored as muscle. With this diet, you become stronger, gain weight, become broader and gain either fat or muscle. We want to gain lean muscle not fat. With doing a 5X5 workout alongside this plan, you will achieve 60% muscle and 40% fat. The fat can be burned out afterwards.
I was wondering if I should do this plan? It’s very dangerous and has side effects plus I’d be too fat. I’m thinking of drinking perhaps a litre of milk everyday. That’s much safer. It’ll put 660 calories on me plus that’s 35g of protein. It’s much safer.
I’m currently 63.6 KG and want to gain roughly 17KG. It would take me about 3 weeks with this plan. However, I cannot be asked for workout. This would result in a lot of fat and a lot of belly fat. It would be very hard to lose this belly fat.
What is your advice?

4 / 0Is this good work out advice?Work out twice a week, not three times a week. First two sets are the heaviest you can do a 5 rep max on, if you can do more than that, don't, just do 5 reps then wait 60 seconds, do another set of 5 reps. Now do 5 sets of 20 reps, 60 second break between each.
I got this advice from a friend, he's really huge so I believe him but what do you guys think?

4 / 1Push ups volumeCan anybody explain how I gained chest muscles after having a flat chest when I was doing 100 to 200 push ups per day every day. But everyone on this website says I would need only 5 to 15 reps for push ups but I made volume gains on my chest from 100 to 200 push ups per day as a newbie.
Can anyone here explain how that happened?

7 / 2265 FRONT SQUAT PR GET THE FUCK IN HERE!Literally every fucking month I get stronger. I just did 265 for 1 rep, full range of motion. Felt like starting a street fight but I had to stay calm for work. Feels good knowing I'm stronger than 99% of people and 95% of /fit/. I get a massive T BOOST after front squatting it's crazy. I scream outside all the time.
3 / 0One time, a person making smoothie's in Gold's Gym spiked mine with something. I felt like superman for 5 days. What do you think they put in it? Very powerful effects, not imaginary.
