This. Agreed.

Damage is reparable; a long term low calorie diet will slow your metabolism for the time, but it’s not “broken”. Increasing your calories a little bit but still eating a deficit of...

Just popping in for a quick catch up and hopefully a little relapse prevention. It’s been so long since I’ve been on these boards at all, especially in this forum. I doubt anyone remembers me since...

Just throwing this out there: please get a covid test as soon as you can, preferably before going to the gym again. I’ve found that a large percentage of patients who test positive present with...

I’d say that since you’ve built up to amazing strength levels in the past, you do have to know how to do this! I think the most important thing to add onto you existing training knowledge is that...

Agreed! I was going to suggest something similar- making some sort of “male shift” workout equipment. The back park sounds like a good idea! Really you can get a lot done with different heavy objects...

Congrats on taking control! Sounds like you’ve worked really hard to get back on track and I’m glad o hear you’re having so much success. That’s a lot to be proud of :) sorry to hear about your other...

Just agreeing with this! I’ve had a huge struggle with scale addiction, and honestly know I’d be best off if I did away completely with it. But weighing daily is definitely not helpful... once a week...

Sorry to hear you’ve slipped back into things! It’s crazy how easy it is for all the thoughts and feelings and behaviors to come back when you thought you had things under control. I can totally...

Just dropping in to say hi to everyone. I hadn’t been on this forum for years, so of course haven’t participated in this thread. I last checked in right around when determined passed and it hasn’t...

Such a timeless problem 🤨

Can I get one of these shirts please? 😆

Good luck!

I’d say don’t let the results get you down- there’s a very good chance the results are inaccurate. That drastic of change so quickly (given you’re not on bedrest, that is!) is very unlikely. Honestly...

I typically start off with oatmeal and cottage cheese. It really is a matter of preference, but I feel getting in a mix of complex carbs and some lean protein gives me a food start.


It makes me...

Always be wary of anything you read on the interwebz. I'm sure there are plenty of studies/surveys out there that have drastically different numbers; it's hard to say how accurate any one source can...

If you’re so tired that your form is being compromised, you’d be better off training when you’re more well rested; otherwise you should be ok. Training while tired with bad form is your ticket to...

A common mistake people make while calorie counting is either not including liquid calories or vastly underestimating liquid calories. Do you precisely count the calories in the caloric liquids...

Bulking more slowly can pay off if you're interested in maximizing muscle gain while minimizing fat gain, but if you're interested in a faster bulk, your metabolic rate might require you to take in...

Hello all!

It's been a very long time since I've been on this thread, let alone on this forum at all... so I want to quickly introduce myself.

I'm Nancy, I'm 33 years old, and have struggled...
