Essential Random Gym Thoughts Revisited...

[Malta]

i think it was @Malta who brought up body dysmorphia in the past. man this shyt is real as fukk. i was lookin at some pictures of myself bout 6 months ago when i was bout 175 because a friend of mine said i looked so much thinner and tight.

meanwhile i didnt think so at all, until those pictures

100% real, when I look in the mirror I don't see much of a difference, when I see people for the first time in a long ass time they tell me I'm much bigger. I seen someone at the gym I haven't seen in maybe 10 years, dude asked me if I was on dat dere

brehs, how dangerous is that "extreme" fat loss range? You gonna be feeling like a zombie or what? I've bulked/cut a few times but i've always gone just a couple hundred under which is 2100 for me. My extreme says 1680. is it stupid to go for that or what?

I'm asking cuz I got a lil pudge from during the holidays and im just gonna cut again for a bit. would going 1680 for a few months have me ? Should I just work my way down to that during the cut?

I would just stick to a couple hundred under. Eat too few cals and your body is gonna think it's starving, and put it all back on when you bump the cals up anyway.

trust me.

trust me.

Not if you do it right. Look up PSMF (protein sparing modified fast) if yall are interested in doing it correctly. Better yet, look up RFL by Lyle Mcdonald.

1600 calories is very doable. Doing a PSMF will have you eating ~1000 depending on your lean body mass and body fat percentage

Skipping today cuz of what I would assume to be food poisoning, got me puking all night last night smh.

Now it feels like a hangover except I didn't even drink.

My grip is failing me on my last few reps of deads. I think I finally reached a weight where deads are killing my energy.

quick question.. still fairly new to this shyt

currently taking isolate shakes post-workout.. found a deal on some casein (link for canadian brehs) and i'm wondering if it's a good idea to combine isolate and casein use? like keep taking isolate post-workout and use casein before bed and on rest days? im having trouble keeping a positive protein balance with school and work and shyt so i figured this would help

I've been deadlifting with 8 good fingers...other two were dislocated and are swollen. Been working on my grip strength.

I thought my back would be cooked are deads yesterday, luckily it isn't. Really starting to feel my abs engage during squats, hopefully that is a good thing.

 

[semtex]

gettin heavier with the bulgarian split squats 76lb dumbbells each side now for 8 reps today.

 

[BlackWidow]

which finger?

what you can do depends alot on that


dips, ab work

It's my middle finger. But I've been pushing through the pain!



---- Also, which is better: Rest 2 days out of week, or Work out everyday for 3 weeks, then rest one whole week
