  • Keto lifter for 4 weeks now. Down 11lbs and strength gains are up. I recommend a slow cut to 40 grams or less of carbs. Keep the protein high and fat high. Check out Ketogains for help.

  • Thanks y'all. I actually have been sick so I totally stopped any and all cardio and have just focused on lifting. WHICH hasn't been easy as unfortunately I'm still weak from being ill.

  • I'm gonna have to agree. Sounds like you are over-training. I'm kinda in the same boat. I want to start cutting but don't want to loose muscle mass. I'm just now getting somewhere on my bench and got my leg press up to an acceptable range. I lift 4 times a week and actually have started doing cardio 3 to 4 times a week and…

  • JUST SAY NO! LOL Okay I haven't had a soda since Saturday. I discovered I no longer liked them after going 3 weeks without one. SO, there is hope. Think of it this way, it's empty calories. Would you rather drink those calories or eat something tasty? Good luck! :wink:

  • MFP always says I'm over my protein. I'm fine with that too. I usually keep mine at 1 gram per lean body mass which my LEAN body mass is about 150 lbs. Hope this helps.

  • You are 19. I was about 120 at 5'4" at 19. That's thin enough to me. I couldn't lift a thing and thought I was fat also. I wasn't. I was too thin. I'm not saying you're me or anything but I think that we all go through times when we feel fat or what not but are totally NOT. Go lift some weights now and tone up pretty girl!…

  • I hate hearing "You've lost weight?" No I haven't lost weight but inches. "Oh muscle weighs more that fat." UH NO. It takes up less space. "You work out how 4 days a week?" Yes, I go 4 days a week and lift heavy and do cardio. "You should do more cardio." "How much are you lifting?" Depends. I tell them my max on rep…

  • HOWDY! I just started seriously lifting in February of this year. I LOVE to lift heavy! I'm a bit shy about my stats. A lot of times I lift alone and use machines or free weights because my female gym friends can't properly spot the weight I'm lifting. So, please no laughing. LOL Leg Press Max 1 rep 590lbs Super Squats Max…

  • I totally avoid the body fat hand held devices. They are not accurate. I was told the only true way to measure is the water tank floating test. I'm not about to pay for it so I guess I'll be happy not knowing my body fat. =)
