Quick question: The basic advice is to lift heavy and eat enough... Eating enough is easy with a TDEE calculator and a planned out diet, but how heavy is "heavy"? I squat 250 Pounds 3x5 (3x6 next...

I'm currently tracking my Protein, Fat, Carbs, Fibre, and Calories. I'm meeting fat and protein and calorie requirements, my Fibre is a bit low (relying mostly on a Fibre bar + pears) and my carbs...

Apart from right now when I'm staying up a bit late stressing over this, yeah I usually get 8-9 hours of sleep... Key word there being "stressing", this stuff gets to me... Still though, I don't...

My weight is steadily increasing (I've gone from 175, to 200, to 166, to 186), like I said, I've got some muscle and some fat... If I eat too much, it will be like my first (failed) bulk and I'll...

So, I've been going to the gym for over a year now and to be brutally honest I don't look as good as I think I should... I go very consistently, I eat enough protein, my form is good, yadada... Still...

My question was more "Is it better to lift more with longer breaks as opposed to lighter weights but shorter breaks"

I'm wondering what makes for a better workout.

I do Bench Press 5x5 180 Pounds, 45-60 Second breaks in between sets. Do you find you get better results when lift more but take longer breaks, or lift less with shorter breaks?

I'd like some general advice on this. My rests are usually 45 seconds long, for easier exercises they're shorter, for the last few sets they can take up to a minute.

Is this normal? Its very...

I've been going to the gym for a year now, and I haven't had one of those amazing transformations. Started off mostly skinny fat with some muscle, got fat ( 200 pounds = just eat is awful advice)...

I'm doing the first one, "same 3 day full body routine"

I'm eating 2650-2750 calories, 180 protein, 50-60 fat,...

Fat intake. Gotcha.

Carbs: 358.6 Protein: 170 Fat: 60 Firbre: 34 - 43 Calories: 2650

Thanks for all the replies so far people, it really helps.




I've already done Babylover's Starting Strength, that's what I started with. Got "Meh" no real results besides experience,...

- If my goal is to put on as much muscle as possible, and as little fat as possible, does it sound good?

- But, would it help?

Last time I bulked I gained 20 pounds in like, 4 months. Got really fat, looked really fat. It was my first bulk.

Now, I'm starting to bulk again. Very clean: Only +250 Calorie surplus at the...

I'm exhausted on my cut, and injured (herniated lower back) so I can't squat or deadlift. I don't want to...

Long story short; I started in January 2014 as skinny fat. Was told to bulk, so I did for 4 1/2 months and got fat. Got sad, so I decided to cut and up till now I've lost 30 pounds. (Weight went from...

Thanks for the reply. I've been going to the gym for under a year, and my barbell row is so low because I feel like my form sucks with it, so I've been lifting light rather than heavy so I can get it...
