Just got back from an annual event and people were like :leon: putting the muscle but I feel fatter than ever :sadcam:


Looks like we finally will have access to the gym next to my my office :blessed: At worst it will be $50 per month but worth it just to be able to walk to the gym from the office. I'll probably keep membership at my current place since its less than $20. This will allow me to wake up a little later and get into the office about the same time. I like my current gym but the shower situation there is :scusthov:

I have to find a good program. I've been doing heavy upper and lower for two days with a hypertrophy upper and lower later in the week. I love that setup but with being so close with the new facility I feel like I can go more frequent.

Got asked by a trainer if I'm on dat dere today, his reasoning because he's never seen a person my height do 185 standing OH presses so he was curious since he's seen me lift a few times.

One of those cats with the Johnny Bravo builds. It was pretty funny but weird

Yeah that's cool.

Rest days just can't be emphasized enough. That's the main reason why peeps never hypertrophy....
Speaking for myself and likely some others on this forum, I lift 5-6 days per week not because I think it will build more muscle than a focused 3-4 day split, but because I like going to the gym. It aint all about gains.

But I'm curious what your general routine is, can you drop an outline

I bought a Carbon 15 when I was 18
I got a question. Say I come to the end of my cut and I'm ready to maintain and at this point I'm down to around 2k calories or w/e. Will 2k calories be what I have to eat for the rest of of my life till I'm ready to bulk again or do I up the calories a little for maintenance?

Yeah you need to up them. Probably 2500-2700, I would start at 2300 for a week and work your way up until you stop losing weight
