@cnghello There’s no way I’d be able to BMU by the time I got to them lol but I kinda figured it would involve thrusters and BMU

@chaplain777 Protein powders. I’ve spent so much money trying different flavors and recipes.. i can always taste it. Diet pops- not “good” for you but low calorie. Again, I’ve tried them all. I’d rather have no pop lol All Beans (except green beans)- it’s a texture thing

@yaphah I’m a cottage cheese girlie - This sounds yummy!

@new2faith2 I always put one whole egg in mine + the cottage cheese + I might add onions, spinach, and peppers if I have them. Sometimes I add buffalo sauce or other kinds of seasoning. I have a Cajun seasoning I love putting in them. I sometimes add ground turkey that I season kinda like...

@midestinee I eat a lot of tuna, shrimp and ground turkey. Also Greek yogurt, cottage cheese, egg whites. Fairlife protein drinks when I need to I do 140-145g a day

@evachristine I know many people with some type of home gym or some stuff to workout at home. It’s not weird. I workout with people who workout at the gym AND have a nice set ups at home. bet your coworker would be sent into a coma if she knew that lol

@nilsa Cottage cheese. I sneak it into so much stuff, like making a creamy buffalo sauce/dip. I’ve been doing it for years but it’s really blown up lately. I mix it in with my egg whites and make scrambled eggs. I can easily get a 35-45g protein breakfast. High Protein yogurt for a snack. I...

@steven92 It’s almost a daily staple for me. I usually do the pro for the extra protein. I like that it’s thicker. Then I eventually get the yogurt ick and have to take a break for a week lol

@mihai_1991 I didn’t stick to anything until I randomly tried CrossFit- which is “constantly varied” . I’m pretty fit and my endurance has sky rocketed , but aesthetically i know I’d have better results if I stuck to a traditional type split. I just recently started adding that in 3 days a week...

@francis_mcc you won’t achieve the results of someone who lifts consistently over a month by lifting In a 16 day window of a month. Doesn’t mean you won’t have any results, they just won’t be the same. I just do my usual workouts all month. Am I lower energy sometimes ? Sure. I don’t always...

@truthtellah Dang.. that’s a no for me. I’ve never been to a gym that doesn’t have a good amount of both. Mine has 20 of each. Our gym is over 70% female… it wouldn’t fly

@g3ntl3w4rri0r No, I haven’t. But I’m not a competitive person so I don’t ego lift or anything lol you learn how far you can push yourself and when you need to scale it back

@orthodoxforever Usually people are giving their one rep max unless they specify otherwise. My ORM last time I tested it was 270, which is almost 2x my body weight. It would be cool to hit that 280, or even 300, but I don’t deadlift regularly so I don’t see that happening lol 1.5 body weight...

@g3ntl3w4rri0r I’ve been doing CrossFit almost 5 years and I love it. I also like to hike I’d love to try something like pole or reformer Pilates, but I’d have to drive 1.5 hrs for a class . I’d like to do more yoga, but have a hard time making it to a class. I just do better in class...

@jessica50332 I’m also not wanting to invalidate you, but no part of you is bulky! You’re lean. I can show you some bulky arms, traps and thighs (my own lol) 😂 If you want to lean out more, because that’s an aesthetic goal you have, add some cardio and try a small cut. But you don’t look to...

@pemuoi96 It could be some inflammation + normal weight fluctuations. Are you close to your period or anything? I can be 3+ pounds heavier after a few intense workouts. And I’ve been doing it almost 5 years. I take my rest days and it drops back down. That’s why recovery is important. Recovery...

@skillz I aim for 130-140g of protein a day at 5’3 and 140lbs. Bigger servings of the protein. You like lamb beef chicken and fish. That’s a perfect foundation. What about ground turkey? I often use it instead of beef. My staples: Eggs Greek Yogurt (Oikos pro) Low fat cottage cheese I eat...

@kuysniks Can’t really say as everyone is so different, but those are fairly normal numbers. You could even take it down to 2070, but I’d try keep the protein up. Protein gets easier once you get consistent with it & figure out what to eat. Bulking will almost always result in some fat gain...

@shieldofangels My guy friend ate 6 pieces of pizza last night. He’s a total beast in the gym and he has abs lol granted he’s not eating that much pizza each day, but he can put away a ton of food. My ex was a body builder and he had to eat around 3800 calories to maintain his muscle when he...

@weewillie You definitely need a breakfast with protein. I can get 35-45g in breakfast alone. Greek yogurt like Oikos Triple Zero, low fat cottage cheese, shrimp, ground turkey, tuna, egg whites, etc are all good sources. Once you figure out some “go-to” meals , it gets simpler . I build my...
