@acco340 I’ve been using Soflete programming which is generally quite high intensity. Currently I’m doing their program Swede which is generally hypertrophy focused but has a stamina/cardio component to each training day. I spend 60-90 minutes in the gym doing this program 5 days a week, and...

@johannammmm Haha thank you!

@veritasvii Oh gosh, well for me it’s easy because I LOVE fatty foods haha! So I like eating nuts or cheese for a snack, salmon (2-3x a week), and I use cream and butter when I cook. I always use full fat foods as well

@ablessing2u I was a moderately active teenager, I used to bike to school/uni, play sports once a week and walk a fair bit. But I was never really interested in lifting until I started going to university. I didnt really know what I was doing, so I stuck to pin-loaded machines and did pretty...

@robrog8999 No, I’ve actually never bulked before. I think when I start to plateau on all my lifts I’ll give that a shot... I’ll be honest the thought of gaining more fat is pretty off-putting considering how long it took for me to be at a place I’m comfortable, but I’ll just have to get over...

@poenah Damn that's annoying - it seems to work for me. Hopefully I did it right, I'm still a bit of a reddit noob haha.

@zenkai I'm actually from Australia! My DEXA scan cost $60AUD. The scan took about 5 minutes to complete, and as soon as it was done the technician took me through my results and gave me a print out of the information. I also got a soft copy sent to my email address on the same day. I would...

@bubblegum2021 I completely agree. Being consistently active is what our bodies respond to best, so its just about finding the activity that you are happy/able to do consistently!

@clanless Thank you!

@vessel30 Aside from the impact genetics has on where you hold fat (you have a much smaller waist than me so I’m guessing you hold less fat on your stomach?) what’s your nutrition like? Lifting is important for building muscle and changing your proportions, but I have found that nutrition plays...

@altisdenor Haha, I know right - the deadlift/front squat day is brutal! But unfortunately that’s not what I replaced... I got rid of the volume bench day and do the OHP/incline bench day instead

Hi everyone, I found it really interesting to see the posts people have made in this sub with results from their DEXA scans, so I thought I'd post mine. Image gallery, including pics of me & screenshots of the scan. My Stats: * Height: 5’1” / 155cm Weight: 123-125lbs / 56-56.5kg. Age: 26...

Hi everyone! I have been into the gym in some way, shape or form for about 8-9 years, and I love weight lifting/CrossFit style training. I would say I am a higher end intermediate lifter - I am strong for my height and have been training for too long to see newbie gains anymore. I used to...
