@dawn16 Bodyweight only i probably did 3 push and 3 pulls per week, 1 day of nothing. Just work as hard as you can and be consistant. Consistancy and not getting injured is the key.

@missysylvester Eat properly, train hard, and get your sleep. Sleeping 7-9 hours every single night is extremely important for good results. Dont neglect sleep.

@louie44 People give up too easily when training gets hard. When you are doing pushups and your whole body isnt shaking by the last rep or two, then you arent training hard enough. When doing chinups and you cant do another rep if someone put a gun to your head, then jump up and slowly lower...

@horlait Legs need weights, upper body doesnt really depending on your goals, yes i do weighted chinups, but the vast majority of my training was the basics, just lots and lots of reps and sets to complete agonizing failure where my arms chest and back want to pop from the pump, and then keep...

@dawn16 I havent eaten meat in 8 years and I think I did pretty good. I think you are talking about how "bioavailable" a source of protein is. Yes there is a scale and yes some are better than others, but I don't think because I ate hemp seeds, oats, and pumpkin seeds that my physique or...

@carolsheats Vega sport was pretty good, hemp based with frozen blueberries and strawberries is pretty good. I also used basic unflavored yellow pea protein powder which was super not great but extremely low calorie and high protein, so i just dealt with it. Ive never been one to complain about...

@thedudeman1990 Hmmm, id venture to say its half eggs and milk derived like cottage cheese, greek yogurt, and whey protein, and half beans plants and grains. Maybe 40-60.

@themrbt Eggs, whey protein shakes, beans spinach broccoli quinoa tofurky sausages, cottage cheese greek yogurt soy milk etc.

@web209 Fast concentric slow eccentric, no reason at all to go slow on the concentric of any exercise. Control the movement, no swinging, no momentum, pause at the top of chinups, palms facing you hands closer to each other is more bicep activation than shoulder width. You can handle lots of...

@seekfind Just gotta listen to your body, ring pullups are probably the best overall solution for pullups because your hands are not fixed in space and therefore basically injury-proof.

@seekfind I did a lot of supinated (chinups) starting out because i was way stronger in that position and i could get a lot more reps in thus allowing more work to get done. I started doing cluster sets like 3 wide 3 shoulder width 3 narrow all pronated once i got stronger. I am still way...

@dawn16 Tendons get built stronger by endless reps of bodyweight pushups and pullups performed properly. I personally have never had an issue with tendonitis in my upperbody. I had a small hip issue when I did barbell squats incorrectly with too much weight once, but i learned real quick what i...

@accelerator Hundreds of bodyweight chinups a week, 50-60 weighted chinups (last session was 5x5 with 75lbs added) per week, slow 8s eccentric pelican curls until i want to die, bodyweight tricep extensions on rings to failure for a lot of sets every week. I train extremely hard.

@jcksn228 Its all calories in, calories out. If you cant/wont stop eating as much as you do then move more, walk more, do more cardio. Increase your calorie expendature however you can. I was 220 at my heaviest and i eventually had enough of it, started skipping lunch entirely and did 45mins to...

@dawn16 My dad was a monster at my age, so picked the right parents for genetics.
