  • That guy MostlyDickWeight sure is something to write home about.
  • just going to spitball a few of my preferred low cal ideas: veggie/chicken stir fry, tilapia veggie tacos, chicken quinoa veggie bowl, sweet potato kale sautee with salmon, chicken, broccoli and rice.
  • Looking for others to stay motivated with!!
  • Is it because the louder the fart the better the burn?
  • To keep it short and sweet match a gram of protein for every lb, so if you weigh 120, make sure you're getting 120 grams of protein a day. also they say more reps will increase your endurance and definition of the muscle so instead of maxing out on those 8-10 reps, go for 15-20 with a (slightly) lower weight. Additionally…
  • What does get you going mean to you? Unless she's referring to the Alvin and the Chipmunk song, Get Going, then the idiom implies to get excited, to start something or to start moving.
  • Hitting the macros exactly is too much stress. I hit my minimums for protein and fats then I fill the rest with whatever I want. My protein will be 175 grams some days and as high as 275 on others. Allows for much more freedom when meal planning.
  • Wow, this is the second time in one day that I have seen you being pedantic in the forums - are you always this difficult? It seems apparent she's asking what music you like to listen to when you're at the gym or doing some form of physical activity in which one might listen to music.
  • electronic dance music keeps my pump going strong. I like to listen to diplo & friends mixes when I want to get into the zone. Sometimes rock is good too but I haven't found any new rock bands that I've enjoyed in a while.
  • The best option is to drop your body fat percentage through exercise and diet. By eating clean and sticking to a routine you'll reduce that grit, goop and grime around your mid-section and that which hangs off the back of your legs.
  • Now now there's no sense in being condescending... Lola - Stop stressing over calories, there are more important things to worry about. Just make an effort to eat healthy most of the time because you want to and it makes you feel better. For example, dairy makes me ***** and sugar gives me headaches but sometimes I just…
  • Just had all four wisdom teeth pulled with two of them cut in half as they were impacted and all of these suggestions are great but i'm going to tell you the one thing not to have.... don't puree meat and try to make tacos, it tastes really gross and it's just a bad idea. Last night I had tortillas for dinner after I…
  • That's what i'm talking about, let's take it one day at a time girl, you got this!!
  • Sounds like you're starving yourself as I only get that feeling when I haven't had enough to eat for the day. Try having an apple if you're planning on having a big dinner. It's about 50 calories and is a filling and nutritional snack.
  • Try it and find out. Personally I find that exercise right before bed keeps me up late which is why I prefer to do it immediately before or after work.
  • My best advice would be to set realistic expectation and don't stress over calories, there are more important things to worry about in life. Also focus on your goals and not the task at hand. tracking calories is tedious and feels mundane but if you do it for long enough it'll become second nature and you'll be at a level…
  • Don't be discouraged, Mark - you're on a roll and killing it and keep showing up, which puts you ahead of most people. In fact I wouldn't take any special measures to deal with loose skin until you’ve hit 9-10% body fat. 10% is when abs start showing up for most people however ab definition and visibility also has a lot to…
  • Unfortunately extreme weight loss often requires surgery to "tighten" the skin back to where it once was.
  • Do you have any sort of ab/core routine that you regularly incorporate into your lift days?
  • Stop stressing over calories, there are more important things to worry about. Just make an effort to eat healthy most of the time because you want to and it makes you feel better. For example, dairy makes me *kitten* and sugar gives me headaches but sometimes I just need cheese fries and ice cream. Bottom line - if you…
  • Sounds like you're eating out of boredom. Drink a large class of ice cold water when you're having a craving and also chew more gum.
  • +1 for asylum, if you haven't done that one yet you're in for a beating. It does require a bit of space but you could improvise for sure.
  • Boom! You go girl!
  • The trainer in Tapout X is an annoying and cringey little guy however I enjoyed the workouts, they get your body moving in different directions (a ton of core work) than what you see in any of the P90 or Insanity series. Additionally after P90 and Insanity I felt that I really had to step up my own intensity to get the…
  • That depends on what you're eating and drinking when you go out. Are you going for a carb heavy meal loaded with starches and huge portions or a low cal alternative like soup & salad? Same goes with drinking, are you downing three sugar-laden strawberry daqs or a couple shots of whiskey? Portion control and doing your best…
  • People talk about Garcinia like that's the name of their personal trainer! Honestly if you do the research you will see there are a lot of people who say that it works and an equal amount of people who say that it doesn't. The thing with ANY supplement is that they only work if you're dieting and exercising properly. With…
  • Sounds like you have hit a hard plateau. Try carb cycling, it has worked wonders for me. Here's a link that gives you some suggested tips based off your body stats. http://www.1percentedge.com/ifcalc/
  • You may want to try bro splits. Make sure to max out your intensity but don't sacrifice form and when you're at your breaking point push through it for serious gains. Try to increase your weight every week even if it's only five pounds. Train like a beast and eat like a monster. Here's an example routine: Chest/Triceps…
