TOO MUCH protein?
Alright, I've heard two things. 1g per lean body mass and 1g per pound of weight. I've always done 1g per pound of weight. I currently weigh 110 lbs.

Anyone hit the magic recomp formula?
I was 307lb of lard a few years ago, peeled off to around 220. Started powerlifting recently. 38 years old. Seems I can't dial in the right diet for muscle gain without adding blubber too. I am on the Wendler 5/3/1 program and when I eat enough for strength, I get a lot of fat. Otherwise I'm weak. Anyone managed to hit…

Ripped my underwear at the bottom of a squat >_>
This week, the first time I took a friend with me to exercise EVER, I ripped my *kitten* straight through my underwear. My friend was standing behind me, and freaked out at first because he thought the sound meant my body had broken in some way. It feels kind of good in a way because hopefully it means I'm building muscle?…

Are protein bars good to bulk up or gain muscle?
Hi, I started having between 3 and 4 protein bars per day to gain weight. According to one of my workmate, it's very good if you want to bulk up. BUT there is still fat in these bars, do you think I will gain fat only or fat and muscle if I keep having protein bars? Thanks, Jamal

Bulking with Creatine
So I'm currently bulking but I'm doing a clean bulk. I've been taking in about 2600-2700 calories a day. Basically a 100-200 calorie surplus. It's funny because I gained around 5-8lbs within 2 weeks while taking creatine. Is it normal? I'm really hoping it's not because I changed my macros haha.

Question for the ladies
I have noticed a lot of websites that claim certain exercises can help increase breast size slightly, stuff such as push ups and working the pectoral muscles, however a friend says they think it would flatten them instead. I am cynical as to what any website has to say about things like that so thought I would ask here. I…

Some questions before starting "bulk period"...
Hi, I've lost almost 22Lbs so far, dropped from 189 to 164Lbs. However, after six months, people tell me I need to start lifting, and I kind of agree with them.

I'm around 5' 7", and was 160 when I started to bulk. I'm not sure what my bf% was but after a very long 9 month cut, I lost a lot of muscle (because I didn't lift while cutting). Knowing this, my bf% was probably pretty high even after losing 60 lbs. I started StrongLifts 2 months ago and started bulking a month ago.…
