Just wrap em...and here I thought this was a question about actual wrist wraps for lifting ;)

Incline push-ups aren't just an easier version of a push-up, they are different altogether. It will work your front delt more and depending on where you let the bench (or whatever you are inclining on) different parts of the chest. If your goal is more push-ups its wall, knee down, and then strict as the progression as far…

Personally, whatever has the best ratio (calorie/protein) is good. I like the blends, the ones that have some quick digest and some slow digest...the hardcore will only do straight 100% whey right after a workout but I would rather have a more steady release than a huge spike. The only thing I would say is be careful when…

Better to get the volume in over strict vs modified push-ups. The goal is to do as many as you can to truly fatigue your muscles. Look at it this way, I may be able to curl a 60lb dumbbell but my aesthetic results will be better if I do more sets/reps with 40lb.

if you are getting the shakes during workout then I would suggest making sure you actually have carbs to use for energy (which a protein drink would provide). I would suggest you drink one or eat something 30-60 min before your workout. I usually eat about 60 minutes before then get my work in then shake usually after or…

Xtreme Formulations Ultra Peptide are pretty good for a meal replacement-ish shake. Use it with a cup of skim and you are looking at some nice macros. They taste awesome too. Quest bars are also a good meal replacement-ish product. I guess it really depends on how much you need to eat but one of those with 16 oz of water…

Coffee? yes, yes, a million times YES!!!!!!

IMO, micromanaging ANY diet will speed up results whether its Paleo, keto, Weight Watchers, MFP, anything. The trick is to be super sensitive about what you eat and restrictive diets like Paleo make that a bit easier. Personally, I do not believe that Paleo is any better than anything else as long as you are strict.

If you are at your weight goal then up the calories slowly and get out of deficit. Lift the weights, eat those macros, and you will be on your way. There are a lot of programs floating around that will help you decide what weights, how much, and how often....but just gotta put in that work one way or another. The cardio,…

I make Jell-o brand ($1.08 per box for 8 / .5 cup servings) but yea, if too much jello could give a person cancer...I am *kitten* gonna die.

You may not be a lion, but you a TIGER! :wink:

I use Pre-OG (get it at tigerfitness.com) and its great. I have used 4-5 of them over the years and this one is the best.

Depending on your goals, it does matter when/if you eat after you work out. For general weight loss and cardio, Peachy and others are right...it will not matter if you eat 15 min after or 3 hours after. If you are one of those that wants to weigh themselves after they do cardio then, yes, your weight will change but that's…

no, I do not believe it is possible that she cannot lose weight but it is very likely that she will have a hard time with the challenges you outlined. 1280 calories for someone who is her height and weight is crazy low...but maybe just limiting her calories isn't enough. I imagine that her situation will need more help…

I will paraphrase that because I agree 100%. There are so many things this site should be as a free product so they can actually give true "Value Add" features for profit.

This is a perfect example...just find whatever you will actually DO, whether its gym, outside, home, it doesnt matter if you won't actually do it.

Its great if you need the micro management...which I do.

Right there with you...they are my morning "cookie" with my coffee. They just rolled out a mint chocolate chunk too...

LOL at this...so true.

Best way is to use the same machines always and that way you have consistency. Then all you need to do is manage your calories/macros if you are not getting the results you want...which will ultimately "fix" the fact that the calorie burn is wrong.

Generally, unless you go absolutely mental, you are not eating back 5 days worth of deficit in one day of cheat. The "weight" gain you are seeing is likely not all actual weight but waste and water with SOME body weight. That is how Cleanses work and people lose "5lb in the first week". Spending the amount of time you have…

twinkies...they are the best fats money can buy :)

When I am sick...its impossible for me to watch my calories...all I want to do is eat. Usually, unless I am super sick, I still work out but in truth, if you blow off 3-4 days to get better and then jump back on the horse...you will be a week behind. That is NOT going backwards. I am not commenting on whether or not there…

yes. For you to lose 1lb a week you need to eat -500 cal per day on average.

Sugar free jell-o...if you use 2 tbsp of fat free whipped topping thats a whole 40 calories for 8 oz.

Sorry to be the one to tell you mate, you're actually dead.

this...that simple.

what? no...

Pre-OG....but you "gotta buy 30 of dem biatches". You can get it at www.Tigerfiness.com

I am gonna guess I will get the "chemical...eww" response but MIO. Just a little bit in a lot of water makes it better. I really cannot drink unflavored water and I agree with gia...I would rather eat my fruit :)
