How is it prisoners build muscles on junk no macro watching

Fithealthyforlife

I worked in a prison as a CO. Trust me, all these guys did was eat and work out. We had inmates who were 200-250 pounds of pure muscle, and CO's who were 250-350 pounds of pure fat. Good thing these guys decided to behave 99% of the time.

How did those guys get enough calories to build muscle?

what makes you think they weren't watching their macros?

Because they are not the type of people who think of fitness like that. Lol

Think of fitness like what? They lifted, they ate, they sat around and didn't expend unnecessary calories. That's pretty much the entire list for getting huge.

occasionally got into a fight or two as well

just don't drop the soap…bahahahahaha

I think your definitions of what's healthy and what's not are too rigid. But you do need to clarify your goals so you can determine what the appropriate amount of calories you should eat to get to where you want to be.

Edit: If that is your goal, then you can simply use a TDEE calculator and eat about 20% less than the number given for a month or two while consistently using a digital food scale for everything you eat. As long as you eat below your maintenance, you're going to reduce fat mass. After you drop your body fat percentage, if you aren't satisfied with the shape of your butt, then you can possibly consider doing a bulk to increase muscle to your glutes.

SCREW TDEE!!! I TRIED THAT AND IT DIDN'T WORK.... IT MADE ME GAIN WEIGHT! NOW IJUST COUNT CALS AND I LOSE WEIGHT EVERY WEEK.,

How were you doing TDEE that you didn't count calories?

I tried that and it didn't work. I gained weight. Now I eat 1500 cals a day never mind exercise cals and I lose 1 - 2 lbs a week. even thought my tdee is 1800 ish.

I just looked at your diary for today....36 billion calories..in rum......I iz impressed.

it was a joke I c hanged it

Oh, I am glad you told me otherwise I would have thought it was serious.

oh WOW YOU LOST A WHOLE POUND! iM SO GLAD PEOPLE TAK E WEIGHT LOSS ADVICE FROM YOU

LMFAO...I lost a damn site more than that.. I have bulked since and cut and am now reversing to bulk again.

Maybe you should sober up before you make more of a fool of yourself.

As far as I know, there are no calorie restrictions in prison. All the starchy crap food you could possibly want, 3 times a day.

Yep, it's a myth that they only get bread and water. I've heard, from a man who has been both in the Army and prison, that prison food tastes like Army food. It's crap until you get used to it, then you gobble it down. Plus snacks and pre-packaged nummy foods are available in the commissary.
