    Weekly Question Thread - Week of 10/1/2018

    @dawn16 I don't see why not. At those kind of loads your probably not going to be doing a whole lot of muscle damage. However, if you decide you want to start progressing in weight on those lifts to build muscle, your going to have a bad time deadlifting or squatting every day.

    Weekly Question Thread - Week of 10/1/2018

    @devotionspirit At the end of the upper day I hit biceps and triceps for 6 sets each with 2 different variations. I try and fit 6 more sets in at the end of one of the lower days, or an entirely separate arm day. Shoulders is 4 sets over head dumbbell pressing, 4 sets lateral raises on the...

    Weekly Question Thread - Week of 10/1/2018

    @jayrashman Get the most out of your movements, full range of motion is always better. I wouldn't worry about the amount of weight your moving as long as your making progress.

    [Push Pull Leg x 4 a week?] More Gains? or More Harm?

    @primsroses Cut all your volume in half per workout and you should be fine doing this. Will you make more gains? Probably not. Will you use up a lot more of your free time. Yes. If you do not drop your volume and just try to do twice as much, you will most likely make less gains, and then hurt...

    How to break through fat-loss plateau (going under 12-13% BF)

    @kekeli In a normal scenario I'd probably keep your calories where they are at for the remainder of your diet. The difference needed to push past this stage should be made up from low intensity cardio. That's what worked for me. But being at 2000 calories for over 2 months without weight loss...

    @mssurrendered1 I think I dropped maybe 50-100 calories in that stretch.

    @mssurrendered1 Low was 200 throughout prep, maybe about 180-190 near the end. High carb day was only about 300 for most of prep, I like bumping my fats up from 60 to around 100 sometimes. Towards the end I kept fat constant and my high carb days were around 400g.

    @jackie789 I'm pretty lenient on offseason macros. Somewhere around 350-400 carb, 100 fat, 200-230 protein. And I rested one day after each 3 day split.

    @redwolf6 I did the same amount of cardio on leg day too. I think the body just gets used to whatever stresses you expose it to, like it may have been hard to do cardio and legs the first time, but after that it just got easier. It's not like the cardio was that intense either, I was able to...

    @dwilk I don't test 1rms, and I lost some strength throughout prep. But prior to prep I was squatting 365x5, 455x5 deadlift. I only dumbbell bench now, but at one point I could flat bench 320 for 1.

    @charlieb410 I only tracked food in mfp. I just took a rounded teaspoon worth of psyllium husk every day. Not gonna lie I think I relied on the psyillium too much and didn't eat enough vegetables. I was really backed up in my digestive system for a few weeks before fixing it with more...

    @lisette Yea I kept it the same so that I knew I was increasing my caloric expenditure. My pull day would be a little over 2 hours including 10-15 minute warm-up and cardio. Push day and leg day were probably 15-20 minutes shorter.

    @lisette I measured in at 6 foot even. I started to enjoy the cardio, but made for some long hours in the gym.
