I ate all those things when I initially lost lots of weight (25kg) 7 years ago, continued to after that including getting down to 6% body fat for a body building competition last year. At what point, will my body adjust? OP: your friend is clueless. Create energy deficit, lose weight. Do strength training and eat adequate…

calories don't count on your birthday so no need :stuck_out_tongue: But if I do really want a big dinner, I just fast all day. Drink plenty of water and some coffee. Go out and eat all the things :smile:

slow cooker. Add meat, some veggies and some sort of sauce for flavouring. This is usually 4 very large meals for me. If you want to turn it into more meals do that first and then cook a batch of rice to go with it. Double the volume. Can put in fridge or freeze if you won't get to them in time.

I get cottage cheese and mix it with peanut flour (pb2), cinnamon and sf maple syrup. Add a banana if you want a few more carbs. Sometimes add peanut butter on top also.

I heard that you should finish eating 12 hours before bed so the insulin fairy doesn't come and store energy in your fat cells. So for me that is 9am.

This one top I ate pop tarts after 8pm. I woke up fat. You've been warned.

gut and lower back. Was 77kg at 6% BF for BB show late last year. Now 88kg and the only measurement that has changed is the waist.

I do these fake deadlifts where you put the weights up about an inch or so so you don't have to pull them so far. It is fake but it feeds my ego. And to the poster above, it is called a deadlift not a dead lower.

If you are sure that you are logging accurately, I'd get a blood test. Check all the regular things plus thyroid.

cardio, plus cardio, plus cardio training. Can I do another cardio session? That is what I read. I'd include SOME resistance training to even all that out.

oh and I had to laugh when I was running my strength class and I finished the stretches at the end with the "happy baby" yoga move. Some people just said, nope not doing that. Too embarrassing. Fair enough. It is a great stretch though.

One time I had just done my regular squat session and then my GF and I went straight to a hip hop dance class after. We walk in and there are all of these people in their sweet dance clothes. I have some mma shorts and a singlet on and am walking a bit like a baby deer after my squats. Got through the class ok but was…

deload session. Deadlift up to 220kgx1 bench up to 95kgx1 Some chinups and rows

pic?

Chinups, bb and db curls. Progressive overload. Eat enough to gain weight.

Anyone who says all calories are equal is dumb. Macros, TEF etc matter. Anyone who says calories are not the single most important factor for weight loss or gain is lying and trying to sell you something. (or just dumb)

The funny thing I think is that the DIY mass gainer shakes are typically a lot higher fat than a mass produced one. I'd say that is because dextrose is not popular anymore. However, if I was bulking and I was not insulin resistant I'd want my extra calories to come from carbs for their energy and anaerobic performance…

Doing some Dr Google on my hip. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HzlAUaovrKY Watched this vid and around the 6 min mark the Iliopsoas snapping hip syndrome seemed similar to what I have. I did the tests and it certainly seems that way. WIll have a chat to the physio about it onfriday. Intra-articular[edit] Because the…

I am a PT. I am engaged to one of my previous clients. :smile:

Eat a high protein/volume meal before you go. Drink plenty of water. Pre log and just eat the food you bought if you want.

Do you need one physiologically or psychologically? If you are having binge issues because of restriction (common) then I would be aiming to get to the eating in moderation more frequently rather than deprivation and then gluttony.

3/2/15 BW 86.8kg Deficit Deadlift 190*5*5, leg press 160*12*3, leg ext 9*12*3, Calf raises 50*15*3, ghr *8*3, chinups x shitloads. And then 5 2 minute rounds of kick boxing.

In the hypothetically dumb situation that someone wanted to live off whey protein, the body would convert some protein to glucose to MAKE THE BRAIN FUNCTION (as well as other organs). CBF finding the article but it's on Lyle McDonald's site. Approximately 100g of glucose required for the average person to function. If your…

Just found this thread. LOVE Bento boxes but I don't make them myself. Mainly because my meal frequency is quite low and therefore my meal sizes are quite large i.e. it would more likely be a bento salad bowl full :stuck_out_tongue: Off to Japan in a few weeks though and plenty of bento boxes will be consumed (amongst many…

bbq meat eater. Only ate half of this 24" pizza as I'm watching my weight.
