Enjoy the free session but dont sign up for anything, seriously lol Gym Trainers are a waste of money. Only time I would ever pay for a trainer/coach is if I were going to compete. And Most dope trainers dont work at gyms, they work independently, just use youtube and forums, which will cost you much less than getting a trainer.

What do y'all think about the theory of not eating after 7:30?
BS. People tend to give our bodies little credit for how advance they are. Later you eat later your body will digest the food, so if you eat at 11pm but wake up at 8am and step on a scale of course the scale will show you being heavier.
I would never go under 2000 as a man, 1800 if you are trying to get to single bf%. While you can do it and live it is not sustainable for a long amount of time, I would say up your cardio instead of dropping that low.
1500 is female level

Nah havent done ab work since middle/early highschool, but the blockyness of em seem to be genetic. Sort of like these shytty high inserted calves I have that dont wanna grow, my abs always been the same size since I was young. depending on my leanness they might get covered up by fat, but they always there when i get lean enough. Heavy deads, rows and pullups, squats work the core well
Me. I don't do any ab specific exercises: sit-ups, planks, roman-chair leg lifts, crunches....ABs are made in the kitchen
The other exercises I do indirectly work my abs.

Hustling backwards bruh
My Theory: abs only need to be worked directly when bulking
My Reasoning: Isolation movements should always be increased when bulking to help damage the muscle enough to spur growth. But then during cutting, they can be dialed back since muscle retention is relatively easy and compound movements do the majority of that work
Doing abs during cutting is silly to me since ab workouts are not big calorie burners, and they already get enough work during compounds for 'maintenance'
Just my opinion.
Of course, in practice I don't do ab exercises during either period of time
. Its not fun and I'm not an underwear model, so whats the point 
. My abs look fine when I'm lean without any special attention

I dont see myself ever bulkig again, after this cut, will just focus on Recomping, or at most eat at a 100-150 cal surplus but still do cardio every so often.
Agree but think about how many people don't do compounds. Or do them heavy enough or properly for the core to be activated.Hustling backwards bruh

Joined a new gym yesterday since I moved back home because I graduated uni.
Some old fat man came in with two stripper looking hoes, one asian one black. Looked like some sugar daddy thing was weird as fuk. But it was kind of amusing to see him run through their exercise circuit. Is this a common occurrence?
