    I want to learn, but I just get too smart. I stopped reading books because I almost built a time machine in my garage one weekend; which could have totally screwed up the time-space continuum for everyone.

    You are all welcome. :flowerforyou:

    ^^^ perfect.

    You are a kind and generous soul.

    Sometimes my gains go to my penis. Lately it's been a problem when I take a poop and my manhood starts touching the water. It's horrible, man. Horrible...

    It looks like you don't fill out your diary completely. How do you know you are eating 1800 (which is kinda low for a man, to begin with)

    I have been on MFP for many years and pretty much know what I am eating and where I am thru a day.

    You've been on MFP for "many years"...

    ...and yet you still believe that this problem of eating in a deficit and gaining too much muscle actually exists?

    :huh:

    I would be very interested to know how much muscle you can gain. Obviously it's nigh on impossible to be accurate here but humour me... In lbs how much muscle (lbm) do you believe you can you gain in let's say, a month . (As in you gain 5lbs but X lbs of this is muscle)

    What do you honestly expect to get as an answer? People gain muscle in a surplus. You don't track religiously. You're insisting you "know what you eat."

    Substitute the "I keep getting big from lifting" to "I don't know why I'm gaining weight!" and you'd get the same answers. I'd add that, outside of the very real issue of not tracking consistently, your "big" issue could be water retention like all the other posts of people claiming to be at a deficit but "gaining muscle," regardless of sex.

    Doesn't really sound like a problem, but when I lift a lot, I tend to gain quickly. I know its muscle and I can't complain about that, but its not really what I want. But I do love lifting weights, I love lifting heavy weights and I love going to the gym. Do I need to take days off the weights and just do cardio style workouts or something else?

    LOL

    I want to run but I get way too fast at it when I decide to do it. How can I run slower and still run?

    I have been on MFP for many years and pretty much know what I am eating and where I am thru a day.

    Get your diet in order first.

    Then structure your training around your goals.

    I have the same problem with my breasts.
    All the muscle has gone there and now I have muscular DDDD's.
    When I go to squat I get told my form is lousy because my boobs are on the floor.
    So I flipped them on to my shoulders. Now I look like I have mad traps.
    The struggle is so real.
