@asdtmr12 For what it's worth, I work from home and workout from home. Sometimes my workout takes 4 hours because I start then get pulled into work and do sets between emails and projects. The best workout is the one you actually do. So if taking your time gets you through, it's better than not...

@dawn16 We're all different, I've made a lot of progress in the past three years and continue to push myself - the past year my progress has been very slow (but still progress). We all have different genetic limits. I'm enjoying pushing myself, and the routine is fantastic for my mental health...

@dawn16 I started late, 39 - I won't ever hit those lift numbers unless I do TRT later in life, but that's ok.

@dawn16 Matter of perspective I guess!

@kent1956 Thanks! That's what I was thinking when I read through the volume. That's a long workout 4x week, it wouldn't work for my schedule. But there have been times in my life where it would. Whatever works, keep it up man - your numbers are crazy high for natty.

@kent1956 Sounds like you have a great thing going. How long does it take you to do this? And why do you call it a split of it's the same workout 4x week?

@minoa Making more progress with hypertrophy and strength

@jidalbc Thanks!

@lovethechrist Thanks, much appreciated! I travel ~5 times per year, so my "deload" is half heartedly fucking around with whatever a hotel gym has for a week during those trips. Seems to work out. I do BBB (even during cuts, since they are so short) so each lift is getting 5x10 as well. But I'm...

@johnc101 Thank you for the info and consideration, I'm guestimating I've been cutting down to 12-14% then bulking to around 20%, but of course that's just guestimating. I'm certainly not advanced in the sense of my 1rm, but I've been consistent for 3 years so I'm probably at the point where...

@boyboy999 Much appreciated, I'll consider trying for a longer bulk phase and steeper cut.

I started lifting after hitting a "normal" weight ~3 years ago, after being 100lbs overweight most my adult life. I'm cautious about gaining weight due to my history of obesity, so I've been doing 2 to 3 month periods of gaining 0.5-1.0lb per week followed by 4 to 6 week cuts to lose a portion...

@raleigh36girl Yes, it's basically just food. It takes about 20-25 "servings", spaced out at least a few hours apart, before it is fully "effective" (when you've got as much retained that will be retained). You might not notice anything at all, you might notice a couple pounds of water gain...
