You could go for a linear growth program to slowly get stronger if you don't want to do the whole bulk/cut routine. But yes, working your chest more would benefit you. But you'd also probably need to cut.

Welcome Ashley! Take it slow, consistency is key. Daily diet (whatever you eat morning to night) is the key and simply put you need to eat under your TDEE. Exercise helps if you want muscle tissue. Use the app to your advantage to keep you accountable. It's a lot of work!

Peanut butter sandwiches (can add honey or fruit jelly if needed to make it not as dry). 2 slices of bread and 2 tbsp or PB = 400 calories.

Hey welcome! Check out the apps & devices tab in the app. There's an app called fitbit tracker that claims to work for all fit bit models.

Hey good luck. Just something to keep in mind/do some extra reading on is that boob = fat storage influenced by your genetics. Not sure if fenugreek or palmetto will do much there. Even if they add a bit of estrogen, they will create imbalances else where if you're not careful. Though I'm no expert, I'd recommend checking…

Haha what you're feeling is delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS). You put your body through a new stress that it hasn't done recently. This has happened a lot to me whenever I stop working out for several weeks and try to hop back in. Also 18 floors is a lot if that was your first time/attempt. You may want to focus on…

Welcome Irangara. First off, what are your goals? Lose, maintain, gain weight or just be a bit more physically fit? Good meatless choices of protein include: oatmeal, nuts + nut Butters, Greek yogurt, beans, seeds, broccoli for starters Forms of motivation I like to use include watching videos on YouTube, pod casts, but it…

Bodybuilding is good if you can find them but a lot of supplement advertisements and fluff.

Order yourself some cheap calipers from amazon or eBay if you'd like. Can be as low as $6 and may come with a measuring tape thing. Then compare your own measured to the Gyms to get 2 measured results.

Looking for people to help with my gaining goals. 5'8" 141 lbs trying to reach 155 lbs. I'd love to help and motivate you in yours as well! Just let me know! :)

No, protein I don't think is ever higher than carbs. Your body won't use it all and you would mostly be wasting your money at that point. Carbs are the cheapest, then fats, then protein. General rule is to eat 1.1.2 grams of protein per your body weight (in lbs). So a 100 lb person should try to eat 100-120g protein per…

Yooooo do you have the my fitness pal app? It tells you all that data! Just input your weight, goal weight, body fat %, and weight goal per week. It will typically break down your diet to usually 20% protein, 30% fat, and 50% carbs. I'd also recommend you to count your calories, input them in on your phone daily either…

Workout your glutes and legs (squats, deadlift, lunges, leg press if you don't feel comfortable with a barbell) while following your MFP recommended macros.

You should get whey and use it for quick normal protein shakes and blending your own mass gainer. There are plenty of mass gainer shake recipes online that use the staple cheap ingredients: whey, whole milk, Greek yogurt, oats (I prefer quick oats), peanut butter, and a banana. Invest in a blender and you can drink…
