    Issues at the gym with 2 dudes

    @austinjoel2001 Try and take video or pics if you can. Speak to management ASAP. This is not normal and should not be tolerated.

    Frustrated about body size and TDEE

    @johnjs37 I hate it as well and that’s why I lift heavy weights. My sedentary TDEE is about 1900-2000 which is manageable enough for having fun and still cutting, then there’s my steps and workouts on top of it, so more like 2200-2400 on those days. I’m 5’4” though so at the top end of petite.

    6-week mini cut results

    @johnacola I think my alcohol calories are fairly moderate in of themselves, since I prefer dry wine or vodka/sodas and I’m usually gardening or dancing when drinking. The worst part is how it destroys my willpower and I want to eat every salty carb in existence!

    Night vs Morning Workouts

    @stuword I block off personal time mid day. My gym is 1.3 miles away (I usually jog there in the summer), my workouts take about 40-50min, and I usually don’t bother showering until later in the day. I refuse to go on camera most of the time so I don’t really have to be presentable. I realize my...

    is there any other 5’2 to 5’4 women that feel best at 140lb to 150lbs or is it just me?

    @peaceprevails26 I’m 5’4” and that’s a sweet spot for me. It’s how much I weighed when I was a college swimmer (I started lifting at 15-16yo). I’ve been muscular my whole adult life and the “overweight” BMI is where I look and feel great. Not that I put too much stock in BMI for myself, I care...

    I’m so burned out of calorie counting. Has anyone had success with taking a break?

    @slant I took a break recently because my cut was going awful. I know I wasn’t adhering on the weekends and was constantly battling the same few water weight pounds. I was just over all of it and my untreated ADHD was at its breaking point. During my break, I got on Wellbutrin, and that helped a...

    Night vs Morning Workouts

    @stuword Honestly, I would just wave and point at my headphones and shake my head but I’m bitchy without abandon. I definitely wouldn’t reschedule my whole workout plan. Good luck!

    Night vs Morning Workouts

    @stuword I can’t do either. I hate waking up early (plus I love morning snuggles with my kid) and I either have masters swimming at night or I’m not leaving the house. Luckily I’ve been working from home since 2019 so I go around lunch time, which is perfect for me. For running, especially in...

    5’3” ladies over 30, what are your maintenance calories and activity level?

    @freds It doesn’t, don’t worry. Focus on your eating and lifting but don’t feel like you have to give up cardio also.

    5’3” ladies over 30, what are your maintenance calories and activity level?

    @soldier_of_god That’s the actual problem. If you don’t have that, you’re not gaining anything significant, cardio or not. The only people still spouting that cardio kills your gains are bro science brahs.

    Dr. Mike on male/female training differences

    @787 Same with me and I’ve been lifting off/on for over 20yrs. I never get totally gassed and I don’t use caffeine or preworkout. I was an athlete from childhood to college and I’m sure my stamina helped that career. I lift basically as heavy as I can but never get sore unless I’m hitting a...
