I understand IF isn't magic but I will assure you it has made a difference in the way my body recovers without question.

I'm not trying to be Mr. Know it all here but I know my own body and timing...

I've been training hard for 10 months and same soreness the entire time until I changed over to IF and I was instantly less sore. I'm 100% positive my diet change has made the difference.

I'm not sure if its just me but since I started doing IF 7 weeks ago (6:00pm to 10:00pm eating window) I have been much less sore after training especially legs. Before when I was just eating small...

That's not that bad, it looks like you just have a lot of excess body fat. Some guys are just genetically more susceptible to gyno than others meaning your body tends to store fat more in your chest...

Seems like 2300 for your maintenance is lower than I would think. Should be more like 2800-3000. Your BMR is around 2100 and you hit the gym 3 times a week + cardio.

My guess is just need to...

Yes you are losing muscle.

If your only goal is to strictly lose body fat then what your doing will work.
Caloric deficit+lots of cardio = weight loss but some of that will definetely be muscle....

Ok all I ask is just because I'm new to this forum and the fact that I'm a fat ass right now don't assume I'm completely ignorant in all facets of fitness.

Just because I don't practice moderation...

Never said I was an expert what so ever.
I lost 35lbs and was still drinking beer every weekend so obviously you can still lose weight to an extent.

Nothing I said was false and the moderation...

Like most will tell you it's all about staying in a caloric deficit throughout the entire week and stacking good weeks of diet on top of each other. You can lose weight drinking beer trust me, even...

Honestly I have been drinking beer every weekend since I started training back in February and I weighed 300lbs when I started, lol. I now weigh 265 so I have lost weight while drinking but my...

I apologize if I offended you in any way just wanted to know your strength cause its the only way I could kinda judge your muscle mass compared to mine.

It's really not fair to say " op has a wake...

Wow!! Did you get your butt hurt because I said don't think you know everything?

Lighten up chief don't take everything so personal? Anything said in my post back to you definetely did not warrant...

Really ok? If you don't mind me asking how strong are you? What are some of your PR's? 5'8 160 and lean good job but remember I'm 2-3 inches taller than you and everyone is built different. Don't...

Your right and I really do appreciate your input and I do need to make better choices as far as my weekend beer drinking habits go. I understand my weekly calorie deficit is very important if I'm...

First of all don't be such a tool!!

Second, I do not drink irresponsibly and don't have any DUI's.

Third, I have plenty of fun when I'm not drinking so yes I understand this concept and I do...

Yeah it sucks liking the brew and wanting to be fit and trying to do both!!

Some good advice here though I can still drink certain lower calorie beers and cut out a ton of calories which I'm going...

I'm sure stuff like this is an often discussed topic but its one that should be discussed. I'm from a small town in Texas and I grew up drinking beer and almost everyone I know drinks beer pretty...

My thoughts exactly yet no weight loss? Like I said before I use my fitness pal and my calories are pretty accurate and yes your right I need a scale just to be certain but still I'm not that far...

Thanks for your input. Ok let's say I'm off a couple hundred calories and I'm eating 2000 calories per day instead of 1700 - 1800 that would still put me at nearly a 1000 calorie deficit each day as...

Nice!! That was funny but seriously I guarantee you I'm in a caloric deficit at least 5 days a week by at least 500 calories per day. I eat a little more on weekends but nothing crazy! Like I said I...
