Breakfast burritos with egg whites, Turkey sausage, salsa, low fat cheese, and a wheat tortilla. My go to breakfast. Or sirloin and eggs with wheat toast. Maybe swap the eggs for egg whites if you want.

I can't speak for others but the reason I carry so much is because during the week I'm on a cutting diet of about 2500-3000 cals a day of real food and on the weekends I intake less food but lots of beer calories and the food i do eat tends to be of the salty, debt-laden greasy variety. Weekends IDC at all as long as I hit…

Figure out what you love that is active. I can't sit around. I told myself Sunday was a rest day and ended up on a hike anyway because I was bored out of my mind.

I shoot occasionally- I don't count it as exercise but with a longbow I have no break and after about 130 shots, my form starts to get dloppy due to fatigue. Try hitting the gym and doing some face pulls/high rows.

I do 3 weigh ins a day. Wake up, after work, and after workouts. It paints a really good picture of trends and fluctuations

Last Saturday I went out and had a bunch of drinks, hardly ate, and woke up at 227. 5 hours later I was 235 after eating and drinking water and some sugary treats to help with the hangover. The next day I was 238 and 2 days after that (back on meal plan) I was holding fast at 230.

I just posted a thread called water weight fluctuations...I suggest you read it

Depends on the weekend. I lift most days, but I was relatively weak last week so I took Friday off, biked Saturday, and hiked yesterday.

Guilty of this. I squat, deadlift, farmers walk, flip tires, etc. All really heavy- I have a decently strong core but i haven't actually done isolated work on it in a long long time

Shoulders: Clean and press, lateral raises, front raises, upright rows Back: pull-ups, deadlifts, rows Legs: squats, lunges, Bulgarian split squats, calf raises Chest: bench, incline bench, flyes Upper body accessory movements: dips, curl variations, tri extensions, skullcrushers Other useful movements: tire flips,…

I do train squats. Often. I'm asking for help iniating leg drive on the log press movement and other overhead pressing events

I'm actually going as far as to say overhaul the whole system - screw reading pride and prejudice and learning trig (those should be electives), we're going for a group run and then we're going to make steak and eggs and learn how to change a spark plug.

Yeah but the problem is there are obese parents, parents who couldn't manage a piggy bank, parents who can't change a tire, parents who think McDonald's is healthy etc. Like my parents taught me really well with finances, but neither of them know *kitten* about nutrition and exercise and growing up I was skinny fat and…

Peanut butter is GOAT. No need for further discussion

I'm on the most half *kitten* cut attempt you've ever seen and it's working exactly according to plan so far. Started about 2 months ago at 243, I was 229 this morning. I eat a 1000 cal deficit during the workweek and eat what I want (within reason), drink beer etc on the weekends. My maintenance is around 4000 cals/day so…

Train, and track your lifts...apply the principles of progressive overload. Follow your program. Tired or not, it will work.

Water weight fluctuations account for a lot, never forget that. I have been as low as 228 and as high as 235 in a span of about 5 hours plenty of times

I copied and pasted my post from another thread: I'm a bachelor who works 12 hour days, plus drive time, plus training, plus life...I have minimal time to cook. In fact, it's been a good while since I even used my stove. I feel I am qualified to answer this. My day pretty much looks like this: Breakfast: Restaurant…

Start exercising in some form man. Lifting is my passion but I also like cycling- find something active you love and pour your soul into it. It's the best mental medicine there is.

The only caveat I would add to that is that if a person is OBESE, some curls and lat pulls could help them until they get strong enough/lose enough weight to do pull-ups.

Build a base of strength to work with first. Then worry about crap. But I'll answer your question anyway since your so persistent it's getting rediculous. Go buy a doorway pull-up bar, hang it in your bathroom, and every time you walk through the door do pull-ups to failure. Also, go buy a couple of sandbags. Go onto your…

Genetically inferior calves crew checking in, they never grew no matter how much I trained them. I got 300lbs fat for 2 years and they stayed skinny despite carrying my fat *kitten* around. I run with a weight vest and they don't grow. I just gave up and quit isolating them months ago...they get hit during my farmers/sled…

BMI should only be used as a reference point, and not the end all, be all. I suggest using a tape measure and some of the US Military bf calculators (army or navy) where you punch in your waist measurement and your neck measurements. While still flawed, they are better than BMI. I'll explain with my stats to paint a…

I'm going to throw my hat in the ring on the idea that this guy might be a troll. I seriously can't wrap my head around a lot of his posts at this point. OP - if you're actually serious (which I'm having a hard time believing at this point) - check your ego, check your expectations, throw all your "experience" out the…

The thing that helped me was microloading... to stop trying to make the typical 5lb jumps - my gym has 1lb and half lb plates, I utilize them. I realize not every gym has these but you could always throw some clips on a scale to get thier weight and use them to micro-load.

@anubis609 I really cant lift more, already do strongman training 5x a week and cycling 2x a week..in a deficit, working 12 hour days too. Theres only so much time in a day.

Unforyionately, it's not going to catch up, I've already maintained at 230 for 6 months. Trust me I know my body really well, and this isn't the first time this has happened it's just that the last time was 150 drug skinny to 230 fat to 190-200 fit. Over the course of about 2 years - That was a LONG time ago...but that…

@Keladelphia I've been lifting for approximately 8 years altogether, I'm about a year and a half back into it after a major depression where I quit lifting for 2 years and got fat. Like 300lbs fat. Currently sitting at 230 and cutting. I know the issue-my form is pretty good...unless my ego gets in the way, or I just dont…
