    Understanding the recent Protein Study - A detailed explanation

    @colelr There was only one study by liverdoc which is not a study -- 8 case reports. I debunked that here https://www.reddit.com/r/Fitness_India/s/P7oTtQefYa

    Help please! How much calories should i take for lean muscle gain?Is US navy method correct for body fat?

    @te15 IMO this is a controversial and ambiguous statement. The fibre and vitamins in fruits also counter obesity. Too much fruit juice might be bad. "Previous studies of the effects of fruit on obesity have shown that their anti-obesity effects are greater than their pro-obesity effects in...

    Understanding the recent Protein Study - A detailed explanation

    @its_namex Liver doc intentionally brings controversial stuff. As I mentioned in my previous comment in the similar prev post, he is not trustworthy, he calls turmeric, green tea and ashwagandha hapatotoxic in the introduction of the linked study.

    Help please! How much calories should i take for lean muscle gain?Is US navy method correct for body fat?

    @te15 I also don't get why you suggest eating fruits in limit. They are not calorie dense, like bread. I see them like salad and use them to kill appetite sometimes.

    Help please! How much calories should i take for lean muscle gain?Is US navy method correct for body fat?

    @te15 I fully agree with this. I also agree with the fact that we Indians already have high saturated fat foods so avoiding butter/ghee is a good idea. But, I am mainly doubtful in terms of using Ghee as cooking oil for normal people who have normal LDL to HDL ratio. There's a podcast of...

    How to spot Fake natty

    @rattikin It sets false expectations. My first coach was arguably enhanced, without me knowing that. He was competing professionally in bodybuilding shows and was 90-95kg ripped at age 22. He never disclosed that, but I thought that kind of physique is attainable with proper diet and training...

    Need guidance for weight loss

    @lovesgod1964 What is this advise? You burn similar or even more calories in a bro split, if you overall volume in that session is similar. No. Do not eat fats pre workout. A simple google search: "It is customarily recommended that exercisers consume about 1 gram of carbohydrate per...

    @te15 What is your opinion in using ghee as a cooking oil, it has more saturated fat than olive oil e.g.

    @te15 I wouldn't suggest using olive oil for cooking, because of its low smoke point.

    Beware of Flipkart, they sent me adulterated/tempered products

    @qdt So they are like Indiamart... I didn't know they have become like this. I used to buy stuff from flipkart around 2017 and they were the best.

    Help please! How much calories should i take for lean muscle gain?Is US navy method correct for body fat?

    @katay It is not the correct path, when you are consuming 1500 cals. Women consume such a low amount. You need to first build up your metabolism. There have been discussions about best bf% for best p ratio and hormonal profile. 12% is not easy to maintain. Above 25% in men is when obesity starts...

    Which one is neutral grip pulldown?

    @ayn Depends upon which you can perform better. When I did #2 for the first time, I didn't feel my lats, rather mostly biceps, so I stuck with normal lat pull. Later on I learned the form for #2. It might be the same for you.

    is this workout good?

    @johnyork In general, all lifting exercises should be done in 45-60mins. 45mins most optimal. After 45mins the exercise we do are not much effective, because of fatigue. Any warm up or mobility work outside of main 45mins is fine.

    Beware of Flipkart, they sent me adulterated/tempered products

    @te15 Yeah, I had already bought by the time. Them kunts have no refund policy on some products. I have cancelled 3 items already. Back in the days, when Amazon was not in India, I used to buy from flipkart and the quality was good. Seems like they've gone down in quality nowadays. Won't buy...

    Which one is neutral grip pulldown?

    @ayn Both are neutral grip. #1 will hit more upper back and #2 will hit more lats, especially the lower part of lats which connects to the pelvis.

    Need guidance for weight loss

    @heatherbliss In your case, as far as I am judging, it is not about calories or a specific training split; it is psychological/habitual. Pick a split and be consistent with it in the gym. I would advise full body one day on and one day off. If you like a different split then follow that...
