@truthandlogic You’ll need heavier weight if you want to grow your legs and glutes. These are very large muscles and can handle heavy loads. To start you can do a lot of unilateral (one side) lifts such as b stance rdl, single leg glute bridge, reverse lunges, bulgarian split squats. If you’re...

@midestinee Take all of the proteins you enjoy eating and just eat a little larger serving of it. Greek yogurt + a scoop of protein powder. I only eat poultry and fish so ground chicken meatballs, chicken breast/thighs, shrimp, all kinds of fish, canned tuna.

@faithshepard It really depends and the only way you can find out is trial and error. 1200 calories is such a small amount of food and tbh it sounds dreadful to me and would leave no wiggle room for anything.

@nguyentrongphuoc I wouldn’t take nutrition advice from someone doing an inbody scan. As said above, these scans are not great. Talk to your doctor. If they are concerned that you are underweight they can point you in the right direction. If you feel you need more muscle you will need to eat...

@turbocountry I would say sedentary for that low of steps and short workouts. I walk 8-12k steps a day, lift weights 4x a week (45-60 mins), 1 zone 3 cardio day per week and i put moderately active, even then my TDEE says I should maintain around 2100 which actually is a slight surplus for me.

@irishamerican4christ Okay so are you saying your deficit is 1500 but you’re eating 2000 and you are having trouble sticking to 1500? You also said you don’t plan your meals and you don’t meet your protein goals. It’s going to be super hard to stick to a 500 calorie deficit without any...

@langley7 Usually comes down to activity and muscle mass. The more active you are and the more lean muscle mass you have the more calories your body needs to maintain its weight.

@singbassman I would keep pushing your calories up until you gain weight and then can level off when you’re in a healthier weight range. You’re definitely not eating too much if you’re 97 pounds.

@galinavot When you’re in Maintenance/recomp your weight is never going to be a static number and you really need to zoom out and look at your weight trends over weeks and months. When i ovulate I gain 1-3 lbs overnight, same with when my period comes. If I sleep poorly my weight will be up 1-3...

@voice_itw It’s really hard to say. Is one day in between leg days enough for you to recover? Are you progressing week to week increasing volume and/or weight? Are you happy with your current progress? If you’ve been doing the same program for six months it may be time for a change.
