Calculators are a good starting point. Own Data > Calculators. I mean, I'm 5ft6 150, my maintenance is roughly around 5000. But that's based off my life style. No one size fits all.

Hey all, Is there anybody in Northamptonshire UK who would want to be friends 😊 Kind regards

Sorry if this seems a bit harsh or abrupt. But this post isn't meant to be. Apologies I didn't read the whole thread either. So bare with me! Have you ever visualised what your future self would look like losing 'X' amount of weight? How would it feel? Would you be more confident and happy? You need to embrace the daily…

Add me, it's all good 😊

Meet yourself in the middle now. Don't use get back on Monday as an excuse. Your body doesn't know what a day of the week is. What stuck for me was sticking to the promise I made to my future self! Also, a certain YouTuber I follow called Jackson Desjardins. He is amazing and not your typical 'bro youtuber'. Check him out,…

My advice for this OP is when you acknowledge it. Simply think HALT and see below how you are feeling: H - Hunger. Are you truly hungry? What's your day been like so far? If you are hungry. Honor your hunger or check if you aren't under eating all day. A - Angry. Is your autopilot clouded by something that has made you…

Hello, Welcome to the forum. I am no expert at all. But here are some tips for you. Your best bet would be to go to a Gym and sign up with a trainer for a month or two to show you the ropes. (Form). It will also take away your anxiety after a couple of times because you will be focused on your trainer. If you don't want a…

My goal this year is to repair my relationship with food, get healthy and when I hit 30 aim to make the 30s stronger, and healthier than my 20s :-)

Oatmeal everyday, well Protein Oatmeal. It's so versatile. I make protein pancakes out of it everyday 😋 Broccoli most days, if not I switch it up. Chicken probably 3-4 times a week. Different seasonings everyone to switch it up. Rice very rare, I much prefer Sweet Potato, and beans tbh. But I like a variety of foods, not a…

More the merrier 😊

Wow thank you so much for this! I felt like my gym routine for Fierce 5 was quite low in terms of weight progression making it seem 'easy'. I am going to be looking into PHUL as that seems quite a good program. Do you recommend on this routine to add weight each session or reps first? Protein is no problem for me anyways,…

I train 6 days a week at the moment. I weight train Mon, Tues, Thurs, Fri, Sat. I do a HIIT cardio on Wednesday. I also walk my dogs 2-3 times a day aiming for 10000 steps plus a day ☺️. If I was cutting, I do more HIIT a week, maybe 4-5 times

Hugs to the OP. I am guilty of this binging as well. I find what helps me is using 10-20% of my daily calories towards 'junk' or treats. Also another one I use to curb Sugar cravings in the evenings especially is I brought some Zero Calorie/Sugar flavour drops from Myprotein. I pour this in my Oatmeal which I have like an…

Thanks for this @alexmose I just realised even if cut now, I would be underweight! So again thanks for the insight. Good luck with your bulk 💪🏻👍🏻

Thanks, I shall give it a read! :) I think I will keep going ahead with trying to bulk. Any feedback would be great.

Today's Weight 120.4

Sure add me :)

I am currently trying to bulk up a bit now. Been at it now on a surplus for a while. It's so hard switching over to the 'mental' weight gain side of bulking. My inner losing weight self makes it a struggle to gain weight, where I seem to subconciously spin my gears. (As some of my friends on here on this forum know). Also,…

28 here :) from UK

I am glad you have posted this comment. I have been feeling like the OP on my current bulking routine. (My first bulk attempt) I found the sticky 'Former Fatboy/Fatgirl' post helps try and change your perception on Weight Gain. I think 'what I see in the mirror' or look down towards my stomach. I see it quite negative. But…

I had this problem where I used to label foods as Cheats 'Bad Foods'. It is a battle of changing your mindset, and yes it is hard when everyone you know through chocolate etc all your way. Meaning, I was binging in the end due to stress. However, during a few weeks into lockdown. I managed to get myself on track and now…

I mix oats with Almond Milk, Nuke in Microwave for 2 mins on high heat, then 2 mins on a lower heat. Then, add a Whey Protein, mix in with some more Almond Milk. Microwave for min on low heat. Then top with fruit/nuts and peanut butter. Yummy!

Northants here :)

Thanks guys. I will check the threads out as well. But if anyone wants to add me through here to help me too that would be great! :smile:

I can relate to this as well, I have just started to bulk, I am quite paranoid to the 'fat gain'. But, just remember to have patience :-) good luck you can do this!

I am the same. I was starting my bulk on 2300, as weeks gone by I have racked it up to 3000. Still my weight hasn't changed. I weigh daily and average it on Sunday for the week total. I have lost weight each week lol. If it stalls again this Sunday, I shall be adding in another 200 calories... Keep it at it mate 💪

Peanut Butter is a good one to use for hitting targets!

Feel free to add me 😁

Add me friends :)

Add me people ☺️
