  • Deadlifts are one of the few exercises where it is better to do one heavy set than do multiple sets. If you are capable of doing multiple sets of deadlifts then you are not lifting sufficiently heavy for your abilities. This is because the amount of CNS required to move all your muscles together is exceedingly high and…
  • I preferred the 30% for the women. But that women had perfect fat storing genetics and had it all go to her hips and boobs. Most women look their best in the 20-25% region, in my opinion. For guys I thought 10% looked the best, but 7% could look better if he wasn't flexing and 15% wasn't too bad either.
  • I think you are getting reps and sets mixed up. OP, I can't see anything wrong. 8-12 reps is about the level anyone should be doing in the gym(though a couple of muscle groups are different), 2-3 sets is about correct. You also have some warm up sets, which is good.
  • If you are eating less than 1200 calories a day you shouldn't be going to the gym. Hell, you shouldn't be doing anything. If you aren't enjoying the gym, bump your calories up to at least 1200 a day and don't go. If you want to start enjoying the gym again, bump your calories up to 1200+whatever you use up at the gym, then…
  • The reason why women don't pay for dates is pretty simple, they don't have to. Seriously, if some schmuck came up to me and offered to buy me dinner I'd take it.
  • Nowhere near that amount, I don't think I could eat that much in a day. By large I just think like a (500g)pizza brought from a supermarket.
  • I'm like you, I don't really drink more than 4 or 5 cups a day but at work I did a hydration test and I was told I was so dehydrated that if I don't drink at least a liter of water within the hour, I'd have to stop work. The thing is I didn't feel dehydrated, I just felt tired(meaning I was drinking coffee, which probably…
  • Actually, yeah people did say that. The thing is it was mainly other skinny people, they'd also comment that I was a fast eater. But I never really thought I ate a ton, I'd eat 1 or 2 meals a day(3 if I was particularly active) but I'd eat moderate/big meals if I was to eat. I was always more concerned with the quality of…
  • As a naturally thin person(in fact I originally joined to gain weight but have since decided to lose a couple of kilos before trying to gain muscle), I agree with many of these points. After counting calories for the last few days I've found I struggle to eat enough to reach the weight loss target(I'm consistently under)…
