    Please reassure me my home gym isn’t dumb

    @evachristine Home gym is the opposite of stupid. It's cheaper, you save time, you have privacy. What's stupid about any of those things? When your coworker said that, you should have asked her, "why don't you mind your own business or have any common sense? If thought about it for a few...

    I'm not fat, I just live in the u.s. (iykyk)

    @djj1973 It’s extremely difficult for a lot of people to do, but you need to take matters into your own hands. I see a lot of people here talking about how healthy marketed food isn’t really healthy and they make the portion sizes too big for us. Well, you don’t have to eat it, and you don’t...

    Increasing calories, cutting down cardio, letting a coach guide me

    @jamieredheaduk There's no science to support this comment, and it goes against recommendations by 100% of health authorities (CDC, WHO, etc).

    Am I doing body recomp correctly?

    @alex1234567890 I think your ability to gain muscle while simultaneously losing fat is insufficient to produce the results you are looking for. You may try to continue eating near maintenance in an attempt to recomp, but it might not work out as well as you'd like, although, perhaps increasing...

    Am I doing body recomp correctly?

    @alex1234567890 Yeah so I'm guessing you just re-earned your newbie gains, so to speak, and now it's done, so recomp will be difficult. I don't think it matters other than that I prefer ones with less ingredients and that are 3rd party certified either by NSF or Informed Sport. You can visit...

    12 week plan

    @jace151982 That can definitely make it more difficult to use my recommendation, so I understand that. There might be foods they would find acceptable that could also work for your health goals. There are so many recipes out there, and so many different kinds of foods. If it isn't too...

    Am I doing body recomp correctly?

    @alex1234567890 I would estimate your TDEE to be closer to 1900-2000, although this is just an estimate and precision > accuracy. Most people would recommend at least 1.6g /kg for protein, so that’s 109g. I understand finances can be a barrier, but depending on where you live, whey protein...

    12 week plan

    @jace151982 Who does the cooking? If it were me, I would just make them eat what I eat haha. I mean, I wouldn't feel guilty about feeding my family healthy food. If they need more portions or calories, then I would just give them larger portions or do easy add-ons or something. Tbh if you are...

    Fitness advice

    @emmafrancis Toning, I assume you mean that your muscles are more prominent. You do this by losing body fat while maintaining muscle mass. This means your body fat percentage will be lower. Building muscle requires sufficient protein (1.6g/kgbw if bulking or at maintenance, or 2.2g/kgbw or...

    My summer plan

    @kurbatskiy Honestly, I think it’s fine. Just don’t go too heavy on the glutes. If you recover fine from session to session, then there’s no problem. People are too worried over nothing because they think your body has to look a certain way. It’s your body. If you want bigger butt and not much...

    Severely struggling to stay consistent

    @mahhko If you know tracking keeps you consistent, then set an alarm that reminds you to track your intake. I would find a friend to do this with so you can both keep each other accountable, share meal ideas, etc, and that can help with motivation.
