[QUOTE=-=FLEX=-;1020275413]I see so many people saying that nutrition is 80% or whatever.
Yet I see so many people wandering around the gym doing complete BS routines and making zero gains.
Lots of people would say my diet is total crap. I drink [b]beer[/b] every day. I never eat fruit and don't eat a lot of veggies or [b]grains[/b]. I pretty much live on meat, eggs and beer.
But I lift heavy, and I lift a lot. And while I'm clearly not bodybuilder lean, I have a helluva lot of muscle mass, and not bad strength (except presses due to shoulder issues).
So what's your position?
Is nutrition more important, or is effort in the gym more important?[/QUOTE]
beer is a grain. Read the ingredients amigo!

People who say diet is 80% are wrong and it must just be the cool thing to say these days. They think omg if they go out and drink a six pack it will kill all gains etc. of course you need a lot of good food to build muscle but people are so over the top sometimes.

Although I would steer everyone away from soda and diet is even worse. That stuff will eat your teeth up and kill you. But I agree with yhe point of your post

Yes. Drinking a diet soda once a day is worse for you than smoking 4 packs of cigetettes a day!!! :rolleyes:

I want to be bigger
I'm 37 and trying to put weight on 200lbs is my goal. Just had two peanut butter & jelly sandwiches & a lot of ice cream. HAd a 1,000 calories royal red robin burger few hours ago with fries and salad. Eating 6-7 times a day shakes too. I will get there of course I don't want a huge gut tho.

Who said ANYthing about smoking cigs? I'm just sayin diet soda aspartame is like meth
-
It just annoys me that people are attacking the guy for looking and eating how he wants too look and eat. it also so happens that him and I have the same goals in mind, not too mention that I eat red meat at least 10x per week and eat a ****load off eggs.It's lol that some skinny little homo who weighs 140lbs is going to tell flex he looks like **** or is fat . get real you 140lbs sissy or I will have my sister kick your ass.

So, comparing diet soda to cigs is stupid, but comparing diet soda to meth makes sense? :confused:
If I drink diet soda for the next 5 years, will I start to look like those "faces of meth" posters?

[QUOTE=highiso;1075933041]I haven't jumped into this yet but my 2 cents is that macros are everything. I used to be more of a "clean" freak but as I progress, IIFYM is more of how I'm living. This is my first cut where I'm implementing IIFYM. We'll see how it goes, so far so good.[/QUOTE]That is what i follow too, so far IIFYM has helped me lose 40 pounds, and has helped me keep it off. First time ever i have kept my weight within my goals.

Srs... I'll be patiently waiting right here for them.
-
I would never want too look like you im sorry. ( not trying to be a dick btw) as far as progress i do a 5/3/1 and a bunch of accessory work (ghr dips pull ups mainly ) and i eat a lot but our
goals are not the same. im not trying to get 8% bf or w/e you are. congrats on getting to where you want to be tho sir, well done.
edit- I have good form in all excercises so no need to post videos.
-
I dunno about you guys, but if I even look at a beer can I seem to put on weight. The same is true of chocolate...some things I just have to steer away from. Other guys don't seem to have an issue with these. Because I don't drink much, it seems to hit me harder when I do.

What is even better is that I just saw a news story comparing "meth mouth" to the mouths of those who consume a lot of soda. Absolutely Fing hilarious.
