    Working out, work, and life balance

    @ilovemyfather Go to bed early, get 8 hours sleep and have the same routine every single day. I don't set an alarm and wake up naturally at that time now. On Sundays I get a lie in until 5am. Currently this is the best option so you gotta do what you gotta do.

    Is strength training even worth it with insufficient protein?

    @nanathalieee Yes, it's worth it. Strength training signals to your body that you need to hold on to the muscle so it will be more likely to use the fat for energy and keep the muscle.

    Information Overload

    @ilovegod777 It's just marketing. It's a good way to get people to buy your thing. Just do common sense stuff you'll be fine.

    What do you guys do for drinks

    @rnstaplesattnet A can of sparkling water does it for me, I like those ones with skulls on like liquid death so I can pretend I'm an edgy teen.

    I need some suggestions on important stretches before kettlebell workouts. I’m a beginner

    @travis2014 The warmup from simple and sinister is pretty solid or the limber 11 or agile 8 are both great as well.

    40M looking for help on next steps

    @o0oshadow I like to put extra focus on bodyweight movements and conditioning when losing weight because you can drive both of those things up whilst the barbell movements stagnate a bit (especially bench). Pull ups and dips all day, which also helps with the looking like you lift. Add a bunch...

    Pull Up Advice

    @storiesfly I had great results building loads of casual volume. 2-3 times a week serious sessions mixing bodyweight volume building (add total reps via sets or reps) on one day and 5x5 weighted on another. Greasing the groove in between and then also doing 25 pull ups every morning in a few...

    Curious how any of y’all are balancing endurance training vs strength training

    @adrastus The book Tactical Barbell 2: Conditioning really sums up balancing strength and endurance work. Took me from struggling through a 30 min 5k to a sub 2 hour half marathon and a 20:50 5k whilst still benching 100kg. Nothing fancy on either side, but decently capable. The main takeaway...

    A calorie is not a calorie??

    @reddragon4444 I always think it's not so much about avoiding stuff that's bad, but getting stuff that's good. If I'm full of donuts I've got less room for meat and eggs and vegetables.
