@uzezi My downfall is snacking because I like tasty treats sometimes. I average 140-180 grams of protein per day, along with plenty of carbs and fats. I eat plenty. Sometimes snaking is more related to mental/emotional reasons or habits, rather than physical need. Either way, it’s not that...

@japel Any answer will be a guess at best. There are too many variables to get an accurate answer. A better idea, in my opinion, would be to ask: “how should I optimize fat loss over the next 3 months” Focus on healthy habits and protocols and the weight loss will be the result. Focus on the...

@blake2030 Agree 👍

@ttcmacro I am of the opinion that deadlifts and squats help prevent the type of injury you are referring to…when done with good form and with appropriate loads, anyway. Like “Mark Smelly Bell” says: Strength is never a weakness, and weakness is never a strength.

@bayface107 If you use the app Hevy, you can probably find some people there. It’s set up to be a social workout app. I too have a physique goal rather than a weight goal. 💪💥
