When deep into a fat loss phase I’ve had a few customers, who I may not have seen for 6 months Have a quite word as ask me if I’m terminal 😂 My face tends to take on a thin gaunt look and can change dramatically over a fat loss phase

100% overuse is an issue in people who don’t even resistance train, repetitive movements even at extremely light weights can cause joint and ligament issues. Unless you know their current occupation, training status and a whole host of other variables then you should not be giving out random training advice

Roughly 5% either way with dexa . Just look in the mirror, a lot cheaper option

I woken up at 2.30-3am since I was a child These days I use it to sneak in an extra meal. I guess I do the 4 hour fast as I pretty much eat every 4-4.5 hours 24/7

Why does work out volume need to be increased? Surly a structured periodised routine would be more beneficial. Simply adding volume is asking for overuse issues

Adjusting to 1 more week of bulking before a well Earned maintenance phase, bf , heart rate and blood pressure are all elevated to my maximum. A nice steady maintenance phase until the new year is definitely required. Overall happy with the potential results, will see what the scale says as I diet down. Morning weight 246lb

Your at 140 and need to weigh in at 135 A simple water cut is all that’s required, as a fighter I assume you will have some experience in this department. Try eating at maintenance for a week and take a Deload from training

I know the feeling, I’ve not been this fluffy for along time, I just wanted to guarantee I was in a surplus everyday no matter what. Currently I’ve having to virtually force feed everyday, cannot wait for maintenance. Its definitely a balance how quickly to mass, starting lean definitely gives you some wiggle room

Hey, it’s a combination of everything tbh Convenience as I’ll be away over the holidays. After several meso’s I’ll definitely need a recovery phase, I want to maintain weight as I believe this to be the best way to retain muscle when I start cutting. I also don’t want to go from massing calories straight into a deficit as…

Depends on your current bf and where you want to get to

Doesn’t look like I’ve gained anything in the last month, work has been hectic and my TDEE is just Ridiculous, on the plus side I dont look too fluffy. The plan is still gaining more 5 lb before Christmas and then a short maintenance phase over the holidays before starting a contest prep

I have my exercise bike in front of the TV I watch whatever episode I’m up to on Netflix, Amazon etc. so usually a 25 or 50 min workout

By clean bulk I’m assuming you mean a lean bulk ? I’m currently lean massing but wouldn’t consider it a classic bodybuilding style clean bulk with the amount of junk food I’m consuming

4 toast 2 fried eggs 3 bacon 3 sausage 2 hash browns Beans Mushrooms Black pudding The joys of bulking 😂

Lyles book covers pretty much everything a female needs to know about training/hormones etc, also a really Valuable training guide into training females https://store.bodyrecomposition.com/shop/the-womens-book-vol1/

Staying shredded and adding muscle is very easy, Copious amounts of PEDS. On a serious note it’s virtually impossible to be shredded and gain muscle naturally, you don’t recomp at low body fat levels

Swap out the peanut butter for full fat milk Pick some small 1kilo bags of protein and rotate. I’d eat the peanut butter off a spoon if I needed the extra cals. It all depends how much time you have in the morning to prepare food, for me it’s get the calories down me and out the door, on a weekend it’s full English…

Spend some time on this site learning about Your diet, what training styles you prefer and then pick a suitable established routine. The main take away is consistency, don’t expect to put on that amount of muscle in 6-12 months, your probably looking at a few years productive trainings least to reach a solid 180lb. Enjoy…

As an advanced lifter I personally think those recommendations are totally unrealistic, I’d consider 2-3lb of muscle gain in a year amazing but according to that I’d have to gain around 20-30lb of fat to obtain that contractile tissue. After such a long time in a deficit I’d definitely run a maintenance phase before…

Great news on the pain free deadlifts Especially after 2 years, are you going to persevere with the dl now it’s not causing any pain ?

Since when was trt 200mg Clinical doses start at .5mg per kg up to 1mg per kg 200mg would be considered sports trt

Google Rabdomiolisis

Currently stalling on my Mass Calories have remained the same but work has become busier, starting to find eating a chore but going to have to up the calories even more 😫

From your profile pic your clearly have a decent amount of muscle mass. For the rounder fuller look I’d personally concentrate on posterior and medial heads, the anterior delt usually gets enough stimulation from benching

Personally hate gabapentin, major personality and mood swings, the wife his told of I ever take it again I’m out of the house. The best pain relief I’ve found is ablation where they cauterise the nerves

Ball park 20-22%

Good luck with prep I’ve written off this year for competing, focusing On making improvements for next year Keep us updated with how things go

I take quite a lot of protein powders and have My protein as high as 1.5g per pound times, the opposite of you. So just for fun shall we compare body composition And blood work, just for entertainment values

I enjoy weight training and trying to see just how far i can push my genetic limit. unfortunately that currently means i'm on a basic see food diet, its fun for a short time but constantly cramming down a minimum 5-6k calories every day becomes very tedious. i much prefer fat loss phases as it forces me to become more…
