    Calorie and macro goals for building muscle and leaning out?

    @magnusnr Glad you’re finding it helpful, lift heavy is a common recommendation in the sub and works best for folks trying to gain muscle mass.

    Calorie and macro goals for building muscle and leaning out?

    Calorie and macro goals for building muscle and leaning out?

    @johnhenrygroenewald I’ve read on this sub a few times there is a little research that shows more than 0.6 per pound of bodyweight is beneficial, maybe up to 0.7 for athletes. I’m not an expert either, but it seemed to be agreed upon by the community.

    A ~3.5 year fitness journey from off the fitness wagon altogether, to runner, to lifter

    @johnmike You look amazing!! Great dedication. It always blows my mind when people exercise this much. I guess I have a huge social life, because many of my nights are filled with her togethers.

    Closing off week 9 of BBG and I still can’t do jack knives 😩 Help!

    @lanieloo Hmmm I've never attempted these past the age of 18 because they didn't seem beneficial in relation to how horribly they hurt my back/neck/tailbone. Is there another exercise you can replace these with?

    Skinny fat (135 lbs) to skinny and toned (127 lbs) (2011-2018)

    @safethusfar Nice! Interesting about the yoga. I have patella tendinitis in my knees but it started from lifting and didn’t get better from yoga, now in physical therapy. Do you get nervous to stretch now? I can’t believe you do inversion at the end of all that! I’d hurt myself For sure. Good job!

    How to deal with missing out socially because of workouts?

    @haithai01 For sure. Luckily I’m 30 and most of my friends are married. Whenever anyone asks to hang out I get a little nervous, but I take a night off once a week or see them on weekends. Waking up early doesn’t work for me because i have sleep issues.
