Okay, I'll bite. What are you doing that burns 2000 calories? 😳

👍👍👍

Yeah, if I assume a min of .8g/lb and assume 190 lb 'homest' body weight that would be 150g, so I figure I'm okay that way too, and anything OVER isnt hurting anything. But I HAVE NOT been hitting 1500 cal, so the 50% DOES HOLD as its 50% of what I'm eating. 👌

I have my macros currently set to try to get 50% protein. New to this, so we'll see how that begins to develope. Weekly nutrient report says I'm AVERAGING 135g per day. That's UNDER 50% so far, but I'll stay at it. Ih, that's 135g per day WITHOUT supplements.

SHOOT ... I gotta remember to eat mushrooms ... while I still CAN remember 😳

Best to get better at squatting is .... squatting. There is a 'rebound' reflex in your muscles that can actually make stretching WORSEN the effect. I recommend squatting, and stretch AFTER.

Free IS good. It wont take long before you'll be able to 'feel out' where you want to adjust the programming to fit YOU. Nike was right - just do it. Start slow, you can always add on. Ounce of prevention as they say ...

👍

GOOD NEWS There really is a 'muscle memory' ... it comes back easier than it took to build from scratch. Keep the calories in a sane range, and continue with upper body training, even if you.need to do it seated. Your circulation and respiration will still benefit, as will your metabolism. A true story - years ago my buddy…

Chicken is 2 of the food groups, right? Always bones and skinless. SO WAY easy to wash, sprinkle with lemon pepper and bake about 20-22 min at 325 deg. I also like it grilled, but too cold out there right now. Want simpler and faster? Cut 1 breast into cubes, saute with chopped onion and fresh garlic in tbsp oil (olive or…

Me too. Like shrimp? I got.one round here somewhere that I could eat every day if I wasn't cooking for.the kids.

SNIKEYS that looks like a different guy! Well done!

Who do you see worried about it? In fact, back up. Who said anything about that?

Actually, somebody asked a question for this thread, and I mentioned the ONLY thing that ever was not NORMAL at the gym, and that I have NOT seen any harassment. That said I'm gonna go on about business, ignore this just like I do that girl if I see her. Truth is, I dont.even.KNOW it's a girl. And it doesnt matter. I think…

If rbf means you.look p'd off all the time, then that may be 🤗 But this is exactly what I was referring to in the last few posts. I doubt I was "attributing" something to her. She could have just said "I dont.know". Shoot, I'm easy to get along with - she could even have.said 'nun yer flippin business" or "find.it…

That alone would have been an issue for this girl. I was brand new at the gym. There are two cable machines side by side, with bars and handles on a rack to the side. This girl was using.one.of the cable stacks. I was looking at what was available so I could create a rational exercise program. I didnt see any wrist/ankle…

No app. Just enter it in excel spreadsheet. Since my stopwatch broke I started using my phone for a timer, so I just photo the workout and it's right there on the phone Split screen lets you see.the workout and the timer together.

Well alrighty then 👍 Just remember that done right is more important than done heavy,

I like to work out early-ish. If I had the choice I like about 6-7 am. Sun Is up but it's not hot. But I drag kids to the school bus at 8. Well, not drag, more like I just dont like to leave them alone just yet. Which.pits me at the gym.more like 9 or 9:30.

Okay, then... all this talk about open diaries, why cant I see em? Hiw.kin I steal the recipe if I cant see it?

Guess I'm not very good at guessin' ppls weight, cuz if you.got 35 lbs to lose I assume yer counting a bunch if change in yer pocket. 😳 Oh yeah, folks kin see what.im eating if ya want.

Uh, yah, something like that. Not sure exactly how that got to here, just pointing out that sometimes there are legit offenses, other times ppl "create" offense where there was none. More to the original question, I have seen "stuff" in gyms (not this one). Most of it quite petty.

Yup. Maybe that girl had issues at the gym before I worked out there. Maybe she didnt.get the raise. Maybe her boyfriend and her brother are both insane. But I didnt do any of that so maybe just admit to herself that whatever her.problem is, I AM NOT THE CAUSE of it.

Apparently running doesnt hurt your back, which is good. This applies to the whole body, and certainly holds true for.the upper body strength. As a rule, exercises involving multiple joints is "better". Isolation exercises are great I'd you're a body builder or for physical therapy issues. Compound movements for the…

HINT: If you are responding to this thread from a treadmill or a gym, you are more dependent than you.wanted to admit. 🤔

Press on Megan - you do you 👌 Half.way there already and still at it -- you're winning 👍 Because.you asked, I work out 4 days per week - M pull T push W -- TH pull F push S & S off The exercises on Tuesday are the same.exercises as.friday, but not the same.order. Moderate intensity, meaning no cake walk but not grueling…

Yes, that's 2 ...

Larry. Jerry is around here somewhere too. Big baby.

I see I've been averaging 120 grams protein WITHOUT supplements. I eat a lot of chicken breast, cottage cheese, Greek yogurt, shrimp, black beans, eggs.

Yup, that data collection stuff is out of control. My sons hair cutting place was full one day so I called some others Found one that claimed they took 'walk ins' AND had an opening right now. So I said we be there in 10. AFTER we got there the girl is right there, the empty chair is right there, but they wanted name,…
