sorry if i didnt see it clear but just follow what that tdee calculator told me right?

for me and having 2 little ones, i cant go outside biking. So was looking for options in house. Build your own seems sexy but just need to know which one works

im at a desk job as well. I workout at 5am and this isnt my first rodeo with the gym so i am working out hard being that im winded at the end of my workouts. im also 35 with a desk job so 4-5 days a week of the same routine for me is standard now.

i have shoulder issues. Mainly because i have a herniated disk and bulging disk in my neck.

i also take it that not alot of people in MFP have a peloton

i mean im looking for convienance and just ease of use. It comes all in one. i guess whats offered here is build yourself for way cheaper?

my height is 5'7 weight 217 im going to the gym with weight lifting for 30 minutes and 10 minutes cardio at the end.

Daily calories to maintain weight (TDEE) 2791 Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) 2029 Daily calories based on goal in step 6 2372 follow the last number right?

Heres what i was given

that gives me more than 400 extra calories... maybe i am not eating enough to begin with. Will give this a try for a month and see how it goes

true but i think for some, it comes all together and no need to think about anything. Its all included. i dont know which is why im asking others here for some input

bump.. about this question then what do you suggest in my situation? i ask because when i first did this a long time ago, i lost alot of weight but i barely exercised. Not to mention when i lost 30 lbs i then began to still follow the mfp estimates but i lost a ton of muscle. I dont want to repeat that. So im trying to…

some have told me right now not to go by macros but to just do calories. i just dont know how to put in my weight lifting exercise calories. Its all a guestimate but want to make sure im not starving myself.

i see alot of females responding here but i believe a guy can shed some light to inregards to the struggle. I have been fighting anxiety the past 2 years and its been a fight to say the least. The problems with this has been the meds and the weight I gained from it. Yes the meds don’t automatically cause weight gain but it…

she has but it varies. Just wondering if anyone had any other recommendations.

what jobs do you do and how does one get a job like that? i would love working from home full time

i emailed him directly. Just looking for alternative ways to workout out and still get bigger shoulders without hurting myself.

gotcha... sucks because the injury almost rules out all shoulder exercises. Thats why i was wondering if there was a website that offered some info.

after it was done, did you go back to your regular routine? as for the rest, ok sounds good. Im going to a physical therapist already. They are doing cervical traction to my neck so its cool. Basically i had a good rhythm at the gym and i want to continue at least doing the alternates to make some headway.

just curious, is this the same as a physical therapist?

unless you have a fever, you can push through. Sinus infections and chest colds can be helped with sweating it off. Everyone is different but listen to your body first. If fatigued, then dont go. If you are semi ok to push through, go kill it at the gym

im 30 lbs from my goal so im not lean at all.

hahaha... hey thats why i ask... maybe it can help others who actually think like me.

gotcha. Hmm ok so i guess i will leave it just like that. Maybe im overthinking it. I just dont want to eat to little when im working out alot.

from what i read alot, is it the rule of thumb that cardio days are different intake than strength training days? or is this just *kitten*?

which data is that?

true. My therapist said he feels im good enough to come off of it. Obviously i will slowly come off of it with the supervision of my doc.

no

ok sounds good. i will continue on. i mean hell. this morning i woke up at 2am because im alittle under the weather but i still made it a point to head to the gym at 4:30am and get my workout in. im going to continue. as for the meds, im coming off of it beginning in November.
